I wish they would bring back ______

Make your own? We homebrewers are good at that kind of stuff. My thoughts for a quick and dirty version are.

Bath tub. Filled with water of the appropriate temperature (maybe salted for bouyency). Make a box, insulate the hell out of it with sound deadening foam, make a couple air channels, have them go around several turns with same sound deadening materials surrounding. Place box contraption over bath tub, trip

I've heard of these instances. One room which is so quiet you can hear your own blood coursing through your veins. For some reason as soon as I heard these existed I wanted to do it. Don't judge me.

Back in my hippy days, before I starting paying taxes, we built one outta of a big ole chest type freezer, lined it with black plastic, and filled 'er up with warm very salty water. get in, lay back, close the lid, and bob like cork. Certain experimental chemicals greatly enhanced the effect.

Grasshopper....when you can hear your blood rushing through your veins over the pounding of your heart, then it is time for you to leave. Amazing how loud your own body can be! I would spend days in there and come out 45 minutes later....sometimes just a few minutes would be hours....without all your senses, the chamber can warp time, or so it seems. As in real life, the loudest noise is the thoughts that scream inside your head...very hard to get the mind quiet at first.

WOW! Thanks for the 45 year old flashback....I have been waiting years for one of those!!

FYI, for those (like me) who miss the good Saturday morning cartoons, I read an article that said Disney is bringing back Ducktales. Not as good as the Tom & Jerry, Roadrunner & Wile E Coyote and such, but it's a decent second option.

Animaniacs. That was a great cartoon.

I'd like to see all petty criminals sentenced to a week in the stocks in the town square, where towns people could go by and throw rotten produce at them. I bet it would be a much bigger deterrent than a years probation!

Doug, if for no other reason tan the names...Principal Butt-Savage and Vice-Principal Bone.

Is 2013 really not recent enough for the bubonic plague? In fact that recently I'd say it never was gone.

Just heard on Jeopardy this week that prairie dogs still get bubonic plague.

Glad you got those steps on in time to not be able to use them!

Lime skittles. Green apple isn't a flavor, it's an off-flavor.

Lime skittles. Green apple isn't a flavor, it's an off-flavor.

Oh good god this. I bought a pack of skittles the other day and discovered this. This flavor does not go with the others. With the lime you could grab a few random skittles and eat them all at once and it tastes good. The apple does not play nicely with the other flavors.

I think someone made a petition about this on the internet somewhere. Too lazy to look it up for you though.

Sky King.
Those were the days!

They brought him back to life in movies and TV. Too bad Deforest Kelley isn't around to do it.

I thought the same thing a while back and watched a couple episodes on Amazon streaming. That changed my mind. Not nearly as entertaining as I remembered it.

"From out of the clear blue of the western sky..." Yea, Penny was pretty hot.

Also, Sea Hunt. Another great one.
