I remember I picked an early version like this at a jumble sale as a kid (that's where most of my board games came from)
It had wooden houses and was from the the 1940s, wish I still had it

It must be a country specific thing, as in 50 odd years of various sets I've never seen a horse or the howitzer in UK sets. I think the battleship disappeared quite early on those sets too although I remember an 70/80s set that had a sports car and luxury boat

Posted by Balrog on 29 Sep 2025 at 9:44AM
Surely, the thermostat setting depends primarily upon temperature; I remember growing up in Illinois/Wisconsin, and it snowing on Halloween. In north Texas, October is normally the month when the thermostat can be turned off.

In north Texas, our A/C generally runs from Jun through Sep; heating runs in Nov through Apr. Usually, May and October are months that don't need anything.

In the summer, some people turn the A/C down at bedtime; we turn on fans and move the setting up a few degrees. Likewise, we turn down the heat at bedtime.

I suppose that depends where you look

animal

noun
  1. any member of the kingdom Animalia, comprising multicellular organisms that have a well-defined shape and usually limited growth, can move voluntarily, actively acquire food and digest it internally, and have sensory and nervous systems that allow them to respond rapidly to stimuli: some classification schemes also include protozoa and certain other single-celled eukaryotes that have motility and animallike nutritional modes.
  2. any such living thing other than a human being.
  3. a mammal, as opposed to a fish, bird, etc.

If you have ever read Ian Fleming's James Bond books, you will see that he portrays James Bond as a real spy -- he mixes it up, fights the bad guys, and gets dirty.

I'm sure the women like the clean, suave, tuxedo dressed image. When I first saw Craig playing Bond, I thought "This is refreshingly different". He got dirty. He got cuts. He really sacrificed himself for the good of England.

I enjoyed ALL the Daniel Craig movies.

Posted by Balrog on 14 Jul 2025 at 10:24AM
I really like the idea of hybrid cars -- why should the engine idle when one is stopped or going at low speed? Such a great idea.

I do like the idea of being able to fuel up less often.

A friend has a dual hybrid/electric car; in my mind, the best of both worlds - most of his driving is relatively close, so he can use the electric motor for about 80% of his driving. This means that a tank of gas lasts him over 2,000 miles.

An co-worker once sneeringly pointed out that in hybrid or dual hybrid/electric cars, the extra cost is not covered by the savings in gasoline. But I'm still in awe of my friend only needing to get gasoline so infrequently.

I wouldn't like an electric car; certainly not for distance travel: you'd run out of power, and then be trapped at the recharge station for hours waiting for a recharge. At least with gasoline engines, you can be on your way in a few minutes.

I'll bet you didn't have a Toyota.

"Toyota provides a hybrid battery warranty lasting 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first, beginning on the date of first use. This warranty shows Toyota’s confidence in their hybrid batteries, increasing from the earlier 8-year/100,000-mile coverage, effective for the model year 2020.

Replacement costs for a Toyota hybrid battery can vary significantly. On average, a new hybrid battery may range from $2,000 to $4,000, depending on the model and dealership pricing."

We have had 2 Prius's, and 2 Camry hybrids and now have a Honda SUV hybrid. My brother has had 2 Prius's. My son has a hybrid. My daughter has had 2 Prius's. No problems with any of them, except for daughter's first Prius. It was 7 years old when battery went bad. Toyota replaced it @ NO COST!
(#5699005) Re: Hybrid
Posted by Mustang John of the Wolf Pack on 14 Jul 2025 at 6:47AM
I had one years ago, good gas mileage, the only problem is the battery.
It is very expensive to replace. All the money I saved on gas went out the window to replace the battery. It's not worth it!!
Ps:: The battery lasted less than 5 years.
I believe the battery costs $5000 to replace.

We were not spoiled as children. Of course, the three of us shared the small bedroom. The family didn't have a TV until we were a bit older, and there was only one channel to watch anyway in those days. We had a few wooden toys that we played with and were happy with that. No pets, but we didn't miss that. Of course we shared sweets when it was Saturday.
