I filled the feeder right then.

Love the flags. Many flags out today going into town.

CG · 05-28-2023, 07:35 PM

I read somewhere (probably on the web) that humming birds sometimes go into open garages because of the safety cord that hangs down for manually opening and closing garage doors when the power goes out. Usually white cord with the red handle. They mistake the handle for a flower, then nope, and out they try to fly, maybe in to a closed window or something and get themselves all discombobulated.

I was getting a late night snack.

Cup O Noodles. But now there is no "O'. It's just Cup Noodles. What happened to the O?

And my stove is not as dirty as it appears in the pic. I wiped it down this morning. The dust around here is murder.

**special-K** · 05-30-2023, 05:43 AM

They changed the name from Cup O Noodles to Cup Noodles in '93. I wonder why? It seems Cup O Noodles sticks better than the new version. I also didn't realize they dropped the O until I just looked it up. What does that say for brand recognition when people are still using the original name, without even realizing it changed, for 30 years. I'd be thinking about changing it back to the name that stuck.

The Grammar Police got em maybe? What do you want, good grammar or good taste?

I don't get it either. Kentucky Fried Chicken changed to KFC because they didn't want "fried' in the name. Like anyone doesn't know that it's fried chicken. How dumb do they think we are?

Dunkin Donuts is now called just Dunkin.

Really? You don't sell donuts and coffee? Now you are all that?

Reminds me of a funny Dunkin thing I saw on the net.

What's in a name anyway, ey? Maybe there's an Irish O'Noodle family who sued, I dunno.

Maybe they feared the O would be associated with Spaghetti Os

Baltimore people don't even say Orioles anymore. It's always the Os (da Aouz, lol). Ok, cute at first. "How 'bout dem Os?" (watch at Baltimorese video). I like the whole name. It's really cool being named for an actual bird that is the state bird and name after Baltimore. Ok, back to Cup Noodles, borrrrr...ing

Not a picture I took. I'm braking the rules on that. Here is what I couldn't put in print for yous...lol

Anyone remember when Jack in the Box tried to change their name to Monterey Jack's? People hated it and they changed it back

Abandoned feed mill in southern Indiana. I can envision a few farmers in bib overalls sitting on that porch shooting the bull

**dave6672** · 05-30-2023, 11:33 AM

Nice pic Kirk. That place is across the river and about 30 miles from my house. It was open as an antique shop for a while but that's been quite some time ago. I took this pic in 2022.

I’m not convinced that’s the same place. How can you be sure?

I can't imagine how bored with nothing to do I'd have to be to consider going to a seminar on how to get cremated. And I like pizza! Seems like a poor location to choose for this topic
