I want to keep my 'NSR' posts here to a minimum, but in looking around the house this morning, I noticed a pattern to many of my purchases, both online and sourced locally.

That 'pattern' being the obviously nonsensical aspect of it all.

Case in point...

I would say these purchases are more acute than obtuse.. or at least your curation for the photo is.

Have you called the number on the rotary yet?

I was just looking at an Arduino project to build a security code access for my garage using a rotary phone. Of course I'd have to go full steampunk with it and mount it to a copper box with oilers and a whistle.

Nice collection.

Nice collection. But it does remind me of the back pages of an old comic book. I'm sure you have some x-ray specs and sea monkeys laying around somewhere.

No, I'm afraid that it might be answered.

Well duh, isn't that the hope? Someone name Phyllis or Gladys answers and wants to know when you, 'Jimmy,' is going to pick her up in the Packard to take her to get her pills from the apothecary.

Since rattlesnakes are live-birthers, I wonder what the 'rattlesnake eggs' are?

I can show you, but it'll have to be with a short video.

Can those be posted here?

See if this works....
