Slick Pig Barbecue. Seedy-looking joint with a dancing pig. Wonderful!

One of my friends took this picture a few weeks ago. That would be the Enola Gay flying across an Infiniti advertisement. I have to assume Nissan didn’t sign off on this.
Mine was named Doctor Hardwood
The dentist that referred me was Doctor Love
As I said to the bf …"Dr. Love couldn’t get the job done so he sent me to Dr. Hardwood.
In the 1970’s and early 980’s the heads of Blue Cross/Blue Shield were Drs. Herod and Killborn.
That’s pretty cool.
Was it the Springfield Undisclosed Retirement Bunker?
Wait, I notice you focus on “best kept secret,” as though they’re touting it as a well-kept (note the hyphen) secret (the best, in fact). What I saw in that slogan was an admonition that old folks should be warehoused. As in “Senior Living is Best Kept Secret.” That missing hyphen really changes the implications.
Really? When the first thing they train you to do in the simulation is ask if the “victim” is OK?
the holes are in the back of his head
For many many years there was a dentist in Atlanta by the name of Dr. Paine.
His office was in the Hurt Building.
There’s a dentist in Griffin, GA named Doc Holliday. Griffin, GA was the hometown of the Doc Holliday, but, surprisingly, the two are not related.
I never thought of that, and my sister even has an Addy doll!
But what more surprises me is that American Girl is still selling her. Last I heard, they were getting rid of their story-based lines and just going with their “create-a-doll” model instead. Heck, I’d heard they weren’t even going to keep on publishing the stories.
It does seem like they’ve dropped a bunch of them, though, at least, in doll form. It seems Addy is the oldest one left, save for Molly who was one of the originals. When my sister got her, Addy was either new or the second newest.
There’s a place down the road a bit that’s a mortuary now, used to be “Angel’s BarBque”.
I find the name “Resurrection Funeral Home” to be kind of creepy, especially when your hospital is sending miscarriage/spontaneous abortion specimens there.
She is kinda smooth.
In the town where I grew up there was a stretch of the main street through town where the four things you came to sequentially were…
A life insurance company, a head-stone store, a cemetery, and a mortuary. How convienent!
Eventually they shoe-horned a Post Office in by the cemetery. I wondered if the employees ever got tired of jokes about being the “dead letter office”.
They’ve added several historical dolls lately. In the interests of being “collectable” they retire and add dolls with regularity.
There is a high school in Minnesota named after Henry Sibley - who got the Dakota out of Minnesota by paying a bounty of $25 per scalp and convicted 303 Sioux and condemned them to death in a kangaroo court (fortunately Lincoln granted clemancy to all but 39). He was also the first Governor of the state.
Or is that Donner Kebab? 
It is the “Annie” part I didn’t wonder about. Like, why they might name her that in favor of, oh Gertrude.
My steak was too well-done.
