October 1st’s paper started with something I covered way in the beginning, the Tylenol Murders.

You don’t hear too many stories about women killing police officers, let alone someone stabbing a police officer. Also I can’t imagine the phrase “gone berserk” used in a newspaper today. I can’t find anything about Addie Hardy.

omg, the rod that won employee of the month at the Springfield Nuclear Plant was on the loose.

I wonder where the coffee shop was at JCPenney in the old Coliseum Mall. I saw that JCPenney still operates a (modern) coffee shop at one location in Hurst, Texas.

Before we started using the term “ATM ~~Machine~~”, ATM’s used to be called all sorts of cutsey names. Ours was called “Beacon”, and I still remember my dad going to the one on Woodland Road and I would wait in the car and watch him.

I didn’t know that Thalhimers sold electronics. That clock radio was originally $55! And we complain about the prices of things now!

Just posting because I love that little Western Store logo.

Yeah, newspaper, tell all the creeps what subdivision the little girl lives in.

Man,Golden Goat. There’s something I haven’t thought of since I was like, six. My family never used it, but I remember seeing them when I was really little.

This ad was amazing — until I saw they spelled JCPenney wrong.

The Village Shops at Kingsmill in Williamsburg is apparently nearly all vacant and looking for new development. That place was a poop hole when I went to community college down the street from here like, 18 years ago.

I can’t tell if the illustrations for this Lou Smith’s grocery store are charming or disturbing. Much like the “Kroger People” of today.

Big fail over at Circuit City.

wowow, look at all the movies. Yes, Giorgio was a movie that the How Did This Get Made? podcast covered, but I missed the episode and now it’s scrubbed off the internet.
