Okay, maybe some Grandmas are a little off… I mean … like if you go to her house and the chairs are all wearing socks. Or she keeps a 2½ foot long lemon in the laundry room.
So, yeah… I guess some of these hints are a bit strange. Honestly, I don’t think a potato is going to do much to rust… and today’s milk, unless you buy it raw and unhomogenized, isn’t likely to sour. It spoils, instead.
But two are so…… good (?) … they’re in the list twice, with different illustrations.
Apparently, you can freeze the gum off fabric with an ice cube…. or by… spreading peanut butter on it?
And you boil the cloves in a big pot of water… or… you… um… use giant cloves.. and stab your palm with a butter knife?
Boredom and/or separation anxiety issues. The door jambs and carpet in my house look like this…Maggie had major separation anxiety. I learned about that the hard way. I get so frustrated with people who say crate training is inhumane. Leaving my dog out to eat wood and carpet is much more inhumane. I had to crate Lincoln as a young dog, but he grew out of it.
Lots and lots of money. I just had over $13k repairs done – plumbing, floors, counters, sink, etc. Then I bought a car – $7500 down. And I just paid $3500 to get Mom out of her timeshare. I’m down to about $200.00 now. I think I should stop.
There was an airline with the motto, “The proud bird with a golden tail”. I can’t say this one is golden, but the bird looks pretty darned proud anyway.
I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be noticing here.
Les bonne soeurs passent Le Bon Soir.
They’re not paying much attention to it, but wimples are kind of like blinders, cutting off peripheral vision. I think both racehorses and nuns are supposed to focus straight ahead.
I thought there was a face looking through the door, but I guess it’s just part of my ever-present pareidolia.

Hey, whose Grandma are you calling bizarre?

“To prevent drawers from sticking, wax bottoms twice a year.”
You wax the rails they ride on.
Unless you have one of those fancy new ball bearing rails.
My momma waxed my bottom so well when I was a kid, my drawers have never stuck.
That was my dad’s job.
Yeah, Dad got his share of swings in too.
Most drawer bottoms don’t touch anything, except on the edges.
Unless you’re talking about what what TCM is talking about.
Yeah… I never said none of them work…
But I do wish someone would explain that kind of creepy illustration I mentioned in my post, the one in the lower left corner.
It’s the second illustration of boiling cloves… whatever that could mean, other than in a pot of boiling water.
It’s also odd that there are elements repeated, like candles,.and wooden drawers, where they don’t belong.
It makes me wonder whether AI could have done this.
….
I let you up on the bed ONE time, and….
…..
Okay….
But I don’t know why they’re all together.
I’ll see what Uncle Google says.
I asked… he says they’re at the Oscars in 1974.
I can’t argue with Uncle Google, but I gotta say, they sure don’t look dressed for that.

What? You thanked that guy who remodeled the kitchen, and gave him money.
And I can’t even get a lousy.Milkbone?

Ring-necked pheasant.
Which my spell Czech keeps trying to change to “ring-necked present.”
Let’s see if it works this time…..

I think that was Continental… they painted the plane tails gold.
For kittens it’s like riding the mechanical bull.
The little guy is just overmatched.

No.
OK, you can be the one to stand on the balcony and tell it ‘NO!’ when it’s getting ready to spring.
I don’t want to tell people what to do… but… um…. you guys… It might be time to move.
Speaking of time to move….

Yes there is.
Less than three seconds.
Yes.
Not even a Near-sighted Lover™ could mistake it for a panda.

I like these.
They’re well put together and I learn stuff.
Well put together.
With glue.
Yay… The caped canine crusaders are on the job!
Will they prove to be what the weary world needs…. a pair of arch supports?
Or will those arch villains throw them a curve?
And why are we getting our episodes in twos?
I, personally, am in no hurry.
Yeah, I plan to be checking in here every day for a long, long time!

I think I see a family resemblance.
