Never to be forgotten commentary on the Miller Triplex Side Seat, posted by Al Czervik:

     "I see dead people."

I don't see helmets or goggles. These people didn't last long.

A phrase that I have heard about too many times: "In the old days, people were made of a different, better wood"...

In too many areas, too many motorcyclists still don't wear helmets... I'm not sure we're learning very quickly.

As SocalPanda pointed out here in 2014 about this Health Jolting Chair -- I'm paraphrasing Panda here -- back in olden times, it was easy to finish furnishing your dwelling-house completely -- you could find a new jolting chair to buy, just about anywhere.  But later on, it got so you couldn't find one for sale no matter How hard you looked!   

And let me tell you something:  that's as true today as it was way back in 2014!  The only "conservator of nervous energy'" you'll find in most dwelling-houses nowadays is just one of those old-fashioned saddle-horses. .... sign ...  a pity, really.

I think that chair would cause me to emit more nervous energy than I'd conserve.

'Infectious' dandruff?? 

DrSpudnik

Listerine, or as I call it, eucalyptus schnapps!

AlCzervik

i'd walk a mile for a camel!

but not in those bicycle shoes.

I'd always wondered "Why is it that for all these years I've only gotten regular dandruff on my gums, and not "infectious" dandruff?  is it something I've been doing?"  Now I know. 

DrSpudnik

Gum dandruff is the worst!
