Xmas Humour

[bunyip]

Somewhere in rural Russia are a couple on a farm, Natasha and her active communist husband, Natasha comes inside and announces that it is snowing, he steps outside and says no it is raining, a small argument ensures but he nips it in the bud with his final announcement 'RUDOLF THE RED KNOWS RAIN DEAR'

Merry Christmas everyone.

I got a kick out of the kid's gifts.....

Cigarettes and spoons: Christmas gifts from years ago - BBC News

Children were in the position of receiving gifts that were both boring - like a box of handkerchiefs - to some that were frankly alarming.

The Gilbert glass-blowing kit provided "fascinating and instructive fun" while the company's other safety-unconscious pre-teen gifts included a molten lead-casting kit and a chemistry set with ingredients and instructions on how to make explosives.

The Atomic Energy Lab, complete with radioactive samples, allowed children to create and watch nuclear reactions.

Among other activities, the lab set suggested "playing hide and seek with the gamma ray source", challenging players to a game using a Geiger counter to locate a radioactive sample hidden in a room.

May not have been funny at the time.... but that was definitely the "If it doesn't kill you, it makes you stronger" generation !

After seeing Mrs Claus, it's a wonder that Santa would leave her to go out into the cold.
I always envisioned her as a plump jolly old elfette; but apparently he robbed a cradle one night on his annual rounds.

I have one of those one piece Gillette razors; it's stainless steel and has a graduated tension setting to adjust the blade. I bought it sometime in the 1960's; it's in our what-not cabinet, along with one of the old brass two piece Gillette razors that dates from the 1940's.

I came across two of those old brass Gillette razors at a yard sale a few years ago,, one was still in the box. Then a few weeks later I found a box full of the Government Issue blades, 100 count.
They make a nice addition to the straight razors that belonged to my grandfathers.
