    Buster Brown shoes never went away – you just stopped fitting into them. The Brown Shoe Company is still one of the largest shoe concerns in the world, with annual sales of $2.5 billion.

    :cornut: A TV show called 'The Whirley Birds'(late 40's-early 50's time frame and that's 1940's not 1840's) about 2 guys having high adventure flying Bell 47/H 13 helicopters, never having to work, never charging their passengers but always being flush with money.:Thumbsup:
