Congrats PA & KY, we made the headline!

From Intercourse, Pa., to Monkey’s Eyebrow, Ky., how U.S. places got their names

At least we (KY) got mentioned in the article. Barely.

I don't think they sell a book. It's a free ebook with links to the projects.

OK, you're right. The first time I downloaded the PDF none of the links worked, not even the buy the book link. I tried again and found it would link to the site, then a daisy chain of links to a particular item build.

Idioms from around the world

Hey, don't throw a chicken at yourself, click the link, you might end up banging your butt on the ground. And I ain't hanging noodles on your ears, either. Even if I do live in the butt of the wolf.

Using the very late 1940's and very early 50's, the "inflation calculator" doesn't work for my memory of:
gas: ($0.25/gal), cigarettes ($0.25/pack), a 2-bedroom suburban ranch-style house ($8,000), or a car ($3,000/Kaiser sedan)

Gas, housing, and cars are still essential for suburban living, but I don't understand how people can afford cigarettes today.

People shouldn't want cigarettes anyway.
