And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I think I have one of those green metal sided coolers, and a larger red cooler with same metal sides. Great stuff ! Though I doubt that hold ice as long as the new high tech Yeti - type units.
These new Coleman's have the plastic bottom and so are not at ALL like the old metal coolers. My dad used to stand on our cooler to reach high objects in the garage, rather than bother to pull out the ladder. These new ones would fold up like a house of cards.
If nobody comes up with new ideas anymore why aren't companies firing their creative departments and lowering their prices?
ReplyDeleteIs it lack of creativity or R&D is not worth the risk because of government regulations and taxes??
DeleteWow, those things are expensive these days. Seems to me I remember when they were just north of fifty bucks.
ReplyDeleteThey still make parts for them also. Had to replace the hinges on mine.

ReplyDeletePicked up a red one for a dollar at the sale barn last year. Still in the shed where I put it.

ReplyDeleteYeah, but to be fair, dad has put on weight.
DeleteMy original one (late 70's, blue) resides at the bottom of Lake Powell. Went overboard in '83.
