Maybe we could donate you some junk for the show. I can send you a couple of semi loads if you will pay the freight.

You will find this true in every locale I suspect. Before he passed away, my father had a big barn, a 1 bdrm house, and about 5 acres covered and filled with everything imaginable, including a bunch of old cars stuffed full of his "good stuff"--99% of it just junk and trash. Most people here didn't know who I was at the time and the local rumors I heard about what was stashed out here were simply amazing.Jogeephus":ge2krn3a said:denvermartinfarms":ge2krn3a said:So what attracted them to you?
I don't know exactly. There was some mention of the Chamber of Commerce so someone in there must have been talking to them. Why they thought I had a bunch of old stuff is beyond me. I do have some old stuff but nothing like you see on television. Fifteen years ago it would have been a different story. Had a bunch of old gas pumps and oil signs but all this was sold at auction years ago. That is the only thing I can think of other than maybe someone is grasping for straws after making some big promises to get them here for PR for our little berg.
I think this is what we call an "over-reaction". Good grief.Luca Brasi":xj2w1gka said:I refuse to watch that show on the History Channel because it has little to do with history. It's one of many changes in formats to TV stations which the foolish American majority has embraced, and which exemplifies their ignorance. There is no music on MTV anymore, no science on Discovery, Animal Planet has long blocks of shows about immature adults with more money than sense trying to relive their childhoods by hiring contractors to build ostentatious tree houses. It's embarrassing to be an American sometimes, knowing how many of us are so darn stupid.
