Default RE: A Funny Story from the Over 30 crowd

TV Satellite dishes? LOL

We had a pole by the house, with three antennaes, facing three different directions, for the three stations we got, which also went off the air around 1: am. One of them had a neat Blue Angels video with the poem High Flight being recited.

I never had to use the outhouse, but it was still there when I was born in '52. Furnace was a coal stoker we fed corn cobs to, and we often had ice in the toilet getting up in the morning (Great fun for little boys pissing holes through the ice!) Then we had to fish the towel wrapped bricks out of the foot of the bed, and take them back down to the wood cookstove to heat them up again for the next night, to keep our feet warm.
