I have a similar thing here... I usually go out for a month of shopping on a
friday... so it will last the children over the weekend.
This week they were off school, so the shopping day was brought forward.

Clearly, when Jesus fed the 5000 with just the odd fish and loaf - they were
not 5000 children.

=A0Hahahahah,,I KNOW you're right....mine have all left the nest, but I
can relate to the days when a few hundred dollars worth of groceries
with kids could last a few days,...,and that's if you're fortunate.
There's still some good ol' bartering going on at some local
markets.....a truckload of vegetables swapped for a truckload of fruit,
etc,..with the prices of fresh fruit and fresh veggies (which aren't
really fresh at all, in addition to being loaded with insecticides and
all kinds of other nasty sh*t, unless you buy organic or irradiated and
then you're spending even MORE) it's cheaper to grow your own these
days. Just about the only fruit we buy at the store are South American
bananas and Chilean grapes,,eveything else is Florida fresh from our
backyards, groves, or stands. Betcha this state throws away enough
grapefruit each year to feed several small countries.

some use tricks such as soaking the fruit in water to increase the
weight, so you're buying water. The same is done with meat, they have
special machines to roll the meat in - and even add other meats to chicken.
In tests, chicken coming from one EU country was found to contain other
meats, while being marked OK for those who cannot touch such meats.

Just think, if soaking in water worked with CBs, you could put a small
GE in a bucket for a couple of hours... and pull it out as a Madison.

Yea,,I've even seen a place that offers vegan food, but fried some of
the specials in the same grease in which they cooked all their
food,,,yep,,,guess where the grease came from?
Talk about the Madison,,,I have seen a trend toward physically bigger
radios again,,especially base stations, but even the drivers are getting
Lincolns and bigger mobiles.

Over this side of the pond, the Jumbos were quite a cult radio. I
think that the attraction may have been the diagram on the top,
handles on the sides, and the size of the thing. It was so big, it
just had to be powerful :~)
For such a big radio, with SSB, the PSU seemed pretty poor.
I remember the early ones having terrible FM audio, you
could tell people who were using them or the early Multimodes. They
may as well have shouted out on all the channels, "I use an illegal
CB, and I vote"... or something like that.

Funny how times change. Remember when the telly was huge and like a
piece of furniture,,,then the seventies and eighties gave way to
micro-sized tv's, now the trend is back to as big as one can afford with
HDTV and plasma sets.

The handles on the side were so it was easier to carry it to the
