I tried squirrels and carrots but they didn't work.

Rodney King on the left (not kidding and he was the artist) and Jeff Hogg on the right.

Quite the interesting piece of trivia. I take it you knew him, at least a little?

Ah, hm?! No Geeks?!

Rodney was a hoot and so was Hogg. They couldn't have been more different.
You had to be there and work in the factory to understand the geek thing - it was in no way related to techies

I wouldn't expect anyone to get the TPOH reference.

NOAL - if you ever see a CD copy of Summer's Over by Moe Berg or When We Ruled (TPOH) - grab it (or them) for me and I'll gladly pay you

Thanks for the rock tumbler JC. Fired up the red one with Johnny today. Mine was retired in 1975, when we moved to California.

He also played his first game of chess today, and 6 little projects with a Snap Circuits kit. My Uncle Jack taught me to play chess when I was Johnny's age on a trip to visit my Mom's family in Dayton.

James loved the snap circuits. We ends up with 3 sets!

Speaking of history, Photobucket photos are back....

We all knew who she was anyway. As real as it gets.

Hey, speaking of historic, does anyone still sell that reddish/Pinnacles-rock colored climbing chalk that the Visitors Center used to sell? I found a bag that's gotta be 25 years old or older in my garage.

mynameismud · « **Reply #216 on:** August 23, 2018, 09:14:00 PM »

Ack, I bought a bag of that. On hot days it basically ended up as mud.

I thought Larry was the one behind that colored chalk.
I seem to recall he was still pushing it at the first PCAD.
Just fill your bag with Pinnacles dirt and use that - or I could go scrape up some dirt at UCSC and sell you that - the schist up there produces a nice reddish brown soil.

Yep, that was the issue with it. I even tried mixing it with white chalk and that didn't work either.

The garage is a good place for a chalk bag.
