It sure wasn't lucky for the rabbit...Who used to carry one of these
Gene Wilder, ONLY! None better. His sarcasm was sublime! (I won't watch the remake, and I didn't even KNOW there was a third one...)
We went to visit the Nabisco factory, and got to sample freshly baked saltine crackers. OMG! They were SO delicious! Once they cool down, they're not nearly as tasty as warm from the oven.
Or you got FIRED!
I still have my mother's electric knife. It still works, but I don't use it anymore. Too hard to clean it up, and a regular knife works just as well. But I still have that electric knife, go figure.
I know, I know! LOL! That old lady was so cute!
I used to think the rabbits feet were fake when I was little, until I felt their little claws on their toes.Who used to carry one of these
"Where's The Beef?" We were saying that long after the commercial stopped airing, just because it became a running gag.
I've had totally different experiences on finding out what the meaning of cold is, so no thank you on this way!
I remember the poppers, or whatever they were called, that someone would put into a cig. Gaah, scared the heck out me!
Hopefully, they were not the 'Karens' back in those days.
Does anyone know if hunters hunted for the rabbits and sold the rabbits feet? I mean where did the stores get them from? I truly don't know and always wondered where they got them from. Did 'they' just kill the rabbit for this purpose? Did anyone actually eat the meat and harvest the fur than sell their feet? How did this work out?

People raise rabbits for food. They sell the pelts. The feet are left over parts they found a market for.
Thank you, Lady Sarah. I really didn't know.
Hobby Lobby still sale these and the paint.I am glad I found this
for months I have been tryin to find model car paint (waterproof) and everywhere we went they looked at us like we were crazy and said those went out a loooong time ago.
Actually these model kits taught young kids roughly how engines and bodies go together, kinda like kindergaurden for future mechanics.
Far better than them playin video games all day
I wanted a flourecent pink to re-paint my bobbers so I can see them when I fish
But anyway I loved puttin these model cars together
after few weeks they all looked the same jimmi!
Thank you my friend I'll check them out
To this very day, I will not eat saltines. Tanks to endless bouts with tonsillitis, I have already been given more then I ever wanted.
You'd eat them if you went to the factory and had some warm and fresh out of the oven, I guarantee it.

Speaking of off the hook: I had gotten so sick of being bugged by my ex, I unplugged my phone (in the mid 1990s). It was 3 weeks before I plugged it back up, but it was the most peaceful 3 weeks I had in a long time back then.
The rotary dials were a pain compared to the push button phones, especially when you'd get a busy signal. The, wait 5 minutes and try again, hoping their phone is not off the hook.

Thanksgiving tradition...
I have one, too, and an iron! I don't use it much anymore because living on a farm, things don't have to be so neat. No need to iron my jeans and t-shirts.
But I have it in case I ever need it."Please don't squeeze the Charmin!" ROFL! Ah, those were the days! Now I have to watch commercials about "dude wipes?" O.M.G.
Whatever happened to the notion of commercials being entertaining? It seems that the whole advertising community has decided we need all commercials to be annoying instead.
