Good Morning Kossacks and Welcome to Morning Open Thread (MOT)
We're known as the MOTley Crew and you can find us here every morning at 7:00 am Eastern (and perhaps sometimes earlier!). Feel free to volunteer to take a day - permanently or just once in awhile. With the Auto Publish feature you can set it and forget it. Sometimes the diarist du jour shows up much later: that's the beauty of Open Thread...it carries on without you! Volunteer in the comment threads.
Click on the MOT - Morning Open Thread ♥ if you'd like us to show up in your stream.
Good morning Motlies.
How be on?
I had tee'd up a diary on France and stuff, when I discovered this earlier this morning, and felt that I wanted to share it with you all.
You can add this to all sorts of things that once were common, and have disappeared into the mists of time - like rotary telephones, crank handles to start cars, mangles, pay phones, maps in your glove box, ashtrays in bars, manual calculators and so on...............
Alternatively, some things just hang on in there - pencil sharpeners, erasers, come to mind, as do weigh scales in the kitchen/bathroom.
What have you noticed going and hanging around?
