Remember when

Lucky, I wasn't around for disco.

 

I'm 52 and I didn't know, either. I guess thy might be better known to those who grew up in more agricultural area.

 

Yes sir. Ranching and hay as well as peaches and olives in my hood. Also lots of loggers. I did most all of it. Now just a logger for a private timber company.

 

You missed out on a lot of fun.

Not to mention the lady's would get dressed up to go out.

 

Remember when we used this to make labels?

 

Still have two of them... One has interchangeable dies for horizontal and vertical text. And loads and loads of tape (red and black) when the stock lady in the office was ready to deep-six them.

 

to that......

 

Yes. My Mother in law labeled just about everything in the house.

 

Is that Columbo's pet?

 

Right name, wrong breed.

Oh, and one more thing...

Arm still sore

 

...^^^... We called them "smudge pots" and they were used by the 100's by some farmers to keep certain delicate crops from freezing on

super cold nights.

EDIT : Just saw the above answer

 

I had a 3 speed version of this. Royal blue color. Only one shift handle in the middle. And only one hand brake (for the front). Had standard pedal brakes for the rear. Learned about Newton's laws the hard way at the age of 6. And it was 1970, so no helmet. But 8 stitches and one funky forehead scar later, I'm still here and nobody got sued.

 

I laugh cuz it reminds me of my mom. She labels everything too. She watch my daughters twins and labeled them!!! In her defense they are identical tho.

 

I imagine that the Dymo Tapewriter could have the same effect on people that bubble-wrap does....

 

And used by construction & concrete guys too!
