    Back in the day with pumps the had on off handle on the side. After filling up i would turn the pump off then squeeze the handle and let the last little bit dribble into the tank.

    How much would it cost to empty one gas tank at a filling station.

    Isn’t of getting squeezed at the pump they do the squeezing? Good strategy

    Time for some more wisdom from Ol’ Grampa…

    When I was a little guy, I wanted to ask my Grampa a question, and he was at the age where his memory was a little fuzzy, and I was at the age where I pretty much never knew what I was asking when I did it, but did it anyway, so I said:

    “Grampa, can I ask you a question?”

    Ol’ Grampa said: “Well, my memory’s not so good, but I’ll give it my best shot… ask away!”

    I said: “um, if your memory is not so good, then how do you and Grandma always get along so good?”

    He said: “Well, my memory’s not so good, so I guess I’ve forgotten some of the things we’ve done throughout the years that made our life together good…

    … and heck, there were so many things that it would be hard to put a number to ‘em…

    … which made it hard to keep track of ‘em…

    … so, I’d have to say the most important thing is that I remembered not to forget ‘em! Now… go ahead and ask your question!”

    I said: “um, I think I already asked it!”

    He said: “Well, my memory’s not so good, did I answer it?”

    I said: “I don’t know… now I don’t remember!”

    No Bleeb, Argor, or Dalcon today, but if you look closely at the bottom right of the yellow paint, you can see two antennas, I wonder who that might be

    We used to tell the attendant to “drain the hose” to get every last drop.

    I couldn’t find Bleeb. Perhaps Dalcon “offed him” yesterday?
