Ah, high schools with combination lockers. Isn't it great how some
things never change? I imagine that 50 years ago, it was like that
movie, "Back to the Future".

I wonder if high schools had lockers with combinations 100 years ago
also?

The kitties developed a liking for eggs when they tipped them from the
top of the frig a couple of times. This necessitated my shifting them
to the back of the servery against the wall, supposedly out of reach.
This morning they were dining on scrambled eggs. A six pack of eggs in
a transparent plastic egg container had been batted all the way from the
back of the servery onto the kitchen floor. Smash!!! Gobble gobble
gobble, slurp. Perhaps it's time to put the eggs in the frig. as people
suggested last time. Frig doors are not easy for kitties to open -
hummmmmmmmmmm, famous last words.

That's what I thought, but I decided to be nice and not say it. LOL


Hey, I'm the first to admit that I would forget a combination lock.
I would write down the combination and then forget where I put it!
There's this condition called "CRS" - happens to women around the end
of their 40s, or early 50s. You 40-50-somethings know what I'm talking
about, right? Not being able to remember things like numbers, or
nouns. Or names.

Um, ah, er... oh, yeah - Joyce

when I was in England on holiday a few yrs ago, I came back to find the
lady{?] who lived in rent free to look after Henri R.B.[which she didn't do]
had left me with all sorts of troubles. had also left me without a slice of
bread
or a skeric of milk but I spied some eggs on the kithen bench,oh well I
thought
I'll borrow some milk off one of my neighbours and have scrambled eggs
for breakfast, so I did this when I got up next morning, but alas! every egg
I cracked
was black inside how long had she left them there?lord only knows, I hope
she didn't
expect me to eat them, did she? Cheers and Purrs to you all. Jean P

When we lived in Bay area, CA, I used to keep eggs in a cute wire

container
shaped like a hen! It was usually around 60 degrees F. and colder in

winter.
They kept nicely there, but *not* here in south FL.....it's the fridge for
them year-round here.

Ours started out with keys, but kids at our school were notorious for
losing keys so they switched to combination locks one summer. I
understand that a lot of the newer schools don't even have lockers
anymore. Everyone has to lug everything around in backpacks.

I knew as soon as I posted this that everyone would be on about not
keeping eggs in the frig. lol. From my point of view when I went to the
US I was amazed at what they kept in the frig, jam, honey, chocolates,
coffee, bread, etc. I may start keeping eggs in the frig because of the
kittens but it is such a temperate climate here that eggs are fine
uncooled, and you don't have to bother taking them out of the frig early
if you want to do some baking. (says she, who does a minimum of baking,
lol). B & C enjoyed the scrambled eggs BTW, their busy little tongues
polished off all the yolks and left me the whites to mop up.

When I was at school, we didn't have lockers. You either
carried all your books for the day or you left them in the
desk in the form room...... which was used as a classroom
by other classes throughout the day.

I have heard of a cat that learned to open fridge doors and
oven doors. The owners had to keep the fridge closed with
those "bungee" cords...... even then the cat was seen
*twanging* the cord with a considering look on its face.
