Went deep down the YT rabbit hole. Not sure how I arrived here, but I think I'll stay a while...

I never knew the old phones were made of Bakelite....That was some amazing stuff!Say what you will about a land line and a old timey bakelite phone, the reception was crystal clear and it works with no electric.
yikes.. never hire stevie wonder for cabinetry
I shot from the hip on the Bakelite name, I think both the Western Electric 302 (30's-50's) and 500 series phones (60's-80's) here in the US were made from a thermoplastic called Tenite maybe later ones from ABS plastic.I never knew the old phones were made of Bakelite....That was some amazing stuff!
Wasn't tenite also used for those tortiseshell colored eyeglass frames?I shot from the hip on the Bakelite name, I think both the Western Electric 302 (30's-50's) and 500 series phones (60's-80's) here in the US were made from a thermoplastic called Tenite maybe later ones from ABS plastic.
It was used for a lot of consumer stuff, eyeglass frames, tool handles, toothbrushes, gun stocks, toys, Duncon Yo-Yo's and casino dice. The fact you could add color to it was a plus. I tried Tenite dildo in a search but no go.Wasn't tenite also used for those tortiseshell colored eyeglass frames?
I was into selling vintage jewelry many years ago and some of the old costume jewelry was make from Bakelite and it was cool stuff! Probably taken over by epoxies and such.I shot from the hip on the Bakelite name, I think both the Western Electric 302 (30's-50's) and 500 series phones (60's-80's) here in the US were made from a thermoplastic called Tenite maybe later ones from ABS plastic.
When I was little around 6yo I had a bakelite fishing reel. Was pretty tough. It was a fresh water reel; my uncle took me fishing off the Long Beach pier and I hooked into a big(for a little kid) halibut and the reel exploded. Uncle grabbed the rod and spool and landed the bugger.I was into selling vintage jewelry many years ago and some of the old costume jewelry was make from Bakelite and it was cool stuff!

Looks like a bunch of vendorsI did it. The guy that invited me won the cup with hulk berry. View attachment 4892373
Yup it was very small, and smelled like weed. 1/2 lb green chili cheeseburger wasn't bad though.Looks like a bunch of vendors
The cheeseburger was a good choice. Both @Grandpapy and I remember how bad the smoked turkey leg was at the Northern California Cannabis Cup.Yup it was very small, and smelled like weed. 1/2 lb green chili cheeseburger wasn't bad though.
Despite the human fragility taking place the thought of the Tangerine bud that was handed out makes me think of laughing.The cheeseburger was a good choice. Both @Grandpapy and I remember how bad the smoked turkey leg was at the Northern California Cannabis Cup.
Well perhaps the mystery is solved. I've been disoriented and exhausted all the time for the past month, with a poor appetite. I was blaming it on the Covid vaccinations. but today I weighed the jar of rosin pucks from the past month and it's probably 4-5 times as much cannabis as I normally consume in a month. Yeah, that might just make one confused and tired
