Some things just go together perfectly...Hall and Oates...shower and shave...bagel with cream cheese and lox.
Nature gave this guy the ability to stick his nose into places and get the food he needs, and then named him the Kingfisher to make it clear to all...

Bibliophile to the end, I love the very notion of libraries, where one can borrow all the education one needs, for free! And in the days when we "signed out" books by writing our names on the card, we left stories behind. Why, in the spring of 1945, did Sheila Slaughter need to borrow this book twice? Was she working on a term paper about James Russell Lowell's
Biglow Papers, a 19th-century satire by the author of
Tom Brown's School Days? Sheila, if you're still out there reading, let me tell you, that book is available free, online, at https://www.gutenberg.org/files/22680/22680-h/22680-h.htm

This warehouse wall is in Wheeling, West Virginia, where chewing tobacco was popular back in the day. The Mail Pouch people would paint a farmer's barn for free! The only hitch was, the paint had this ad on it. Still, a good deal.
Fall comes to Williamsburg, Virginia, and we can walk back in history in a cheery atmosphere. We honeymooned there a hundred years ago and still go back every five years!
Do you remember when people still drove around in gas-powered tank-sized cars like this? I guess this guy was the counterman at White Tower. Look at that car! It's hardly much smaller than the burger joint.
