Reminds me of my dad. He was real
big on everything being built-in. He went to great lengths to custom build
BBQ’s attached to the house, complete with custom built cabinets, custom
built-in Franklin stove in the living (that caught the linen closet on fire), etc.
He even customized our ‘58 VW microbus into a camper, complete with
built-in ice chest, sofa that pulled out to form a bed, water tank, outdoor
shower, etc. It was really cool. Even his last TV was a huge combination
complete with phonograph and AM/FM radio.

I spent many hours listening to Wolfman Jack broadcasting from radio station XERB (if memory serves) from the Mexican border. And later listening to his program on Armed Forces Radio in the Far East.

You know you're old if you remember getting your soda pop from one of these.

Bottle opener and a straw and you get it for free.
