Your “scared stiff” comparison made me think of my niece and nephew when they had to smile for the camera - it looked like they’d taken a serum administered by The Joker.<br /><br />Steve DeGaetano, it’s true - and let’s not even mention the sub named “Dinty Moore”.<br /><br />Chuck, I always did admire the Chippendale-style “ball and claw” feet!Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-57354385076059787462017-05-22T15:48:58.742-07:002017-05-22T15:48:58.742-07:00Steve, that explains why D-308 always had the nice...Steve, that explains why D-308 always had the nicest seats...Chucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-8557599024805042382017-05-22T13:00:21.926-07:002017-05-22T13:00:21.926-07:00That last photo with the sub is just more evidence...That last photo with the sub is just more evidence that there have always been corporate sponsors in the Park! ;-)Steve DeGaetanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04947550539650692495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-87975427144722114042017-05-22T12:11:14.840-07:002017-05-22T12:11:14.840-07:00He is vaguely reminiscent of Harry Potter's st...He is vaguely reminiscent of Harry Potter's stepbrother. Sorry, that's just what popped into my head. The photos are nicely posed, as compared to the usual "scared stiff" look most parents get from their kids.<br /><br />JGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-30753448696777763772017-05-22T11:45:31.049-07:002017-05-22T11:45:31.049-07:00Nanook, I am jealous of that kid, being there at s...Nanook, I am jealous of that kid, being there at such a wonderful time! We will see more of that other kid (Mr. Frowny Face), but I think he might actually be smiling in a few photos.<br /><br />TokyoMagic!, that lady just ate one of those giant lollipops, and is regretting it.<br /><br />Patrick Devlin, ha ha, maybe I should make “OK Monday” a thing! No promises of anything great, but it will probably be at least average.<br /><br />Chuck, I think that Delaweenians will take offense!Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-51803920241099365092017-05-22T10:00:25.894-07:002017-05-22T10:00:25.894-07:00Now I can't get this scene out of my head.Now I can't get <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M_1fGshM1o" rel="nofollow">this scene</a> out of my head.Chucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-8251615535309019262017-05-22T09:41:42.824-07:002017-05-22T09:41:42.824-07:00Nice snaps today.

Clearly a far cry from the 'most-unhappy kid' we've seen from time to time who only seems to know how to look glum.<br /><br />And whenever I think of far-away places, Duluth or Tierra del Fuego usually comes to mind.<br /><br />Thanks, Major.Nanookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07255357829181568172noreply@blogger.com
