Yeah, I will have to write it up when I have a few moments.
But there are no pictures. Because back then we didn’t post everything we did on FB. We did all we could to keep from having any evidence for stuff we did…

Good point.
On a related note, my 8 year old routinely tells me, “Don’t post this on Facebook, Mom. I don’t want it to go viral.”

Very nice pics @Eric!! Ditto to what everyone else asked… so curious about the senior stunt.

I have a pretty good senior stunt story from the maritime academy… involves a pigs head. I won’t steal Eric’s thunder till he’s done though.

Ha, isn’t life funny! While at my nephews wedding this weekend I repeated this same phrase several times to my 24 year old daughter.

Wow! I don’t think I’ve seen flip switches like the ones pictured in such as long time, maybe 2 decades…like rotary dial phones.

They have been in there for over 2 decades…

I guess those switches are an anti theft device seeing as none of them are labelled. My label crazy wife is not impressed.

They are all functional - ignition timing ( I can adjust for bad fuel or hot temperatures), lights, windshield wipers, nitrous, starting, etc.
Since I know what they all do, and there isn’t really a need for the man on the street to know, labeling them seemed silly.

Did you read my recipe?!? No sugar my friend! And a limited amount of jam! 
Also I loved the photographs! Certainly looks unlimited to me!!! What a fun childhood. Your parents knew how to have a good time!

Oh no! Now I will have to look for it, and spend all of our money on more jam.
I generally jam it in there when the oven is in the preheating phase, because then it gets done at the same time as the pancake. But, I think you would be correct to say that putting in a cold oven might be better.
Someone recently told me that when an oven preheats it can get up to a very high temperature and wind up burning things during the preheat cycle. But I was thinking that might be better for bacon somehow. Now after rereading the bacon parts of this thread maybe I’m wrong?
