This is the person to talk to about all the gossip around Goondiwindi as we head east before turning to the north of the state. No question here about another important crop in the Goondiwindi area. The friendly magpie in the main street is watching its fiefdom as the afternoon sun warms this fairly important country town. It sits on the Macintyre River which forms the Queensland Border with New South Wales. With the border locked down because of COVID restrictions, nobody is getting through the police line without the correct documentation and passes.

nrhp # 14000030- Completed in 1920, the industrial university and recreational institution was developed by Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company for the welfare of its employees. The building included an auditorium with a seating capacity of 1686, the largest stage and theater in Akron in its time, and one of the largest in Ohio. The gymnasium was comparable to a college indoor athletic stadium. There were bowling alleys, target and rifle ranges, bath rooms and lavatories Goodyear university, and a cafeteria capable of accommodating 8,000 daily. Dormitory rooms were available for both men and women, in addition to recreational rooms and the library.[3] There were three entrances, two on East Market and one through the gymnasium.[2]
Wide corridors bisected the main floor longitudinally, separating the 12 store rooms and the auditorium and gymnasium. The auditorium was well appointed. Its main floor and suspended balcony seated 1,686. The stage was 40 feet (12 m) across, with double apertures, so as to permit its use by both the main auditorium and gymnasium. The gymnasium had a seating capacity of 5,000 people. An indirect lighting system was used throughout the auditorium with the exception of hanging candle fixtures which case a glow upon mural panels arranged on the side wall. A French Renaissance decoration scheme was used.[3] The large gymnasium with gallery had a floor space of 172 by 100 feet (52 m × 30 m), large enough to permit five basketball games simultaneously.
On the second floor, in addition to the auditorium balcony and emporium and balcony to the gymnasium, were tool rooms, writing and music rooms, a large and well equipped library, and a large community room for men. An industrial cafeteria, equipped with culinary appliance also occupied the second floor. Dormitories for 300 men were situated on the triangular space near the intersection of Goodyear Avenue and East Market Street.[3]
On the third floor were located the legislative chambers of the House of Representatives and Senate of the Goodyear Industrial Republic. Well-equipped committee and secretaries' rooms adjoined the house and senate.[4] A large girls' community hall was also housed on this floor. As on the floor below, the triangular space was used for dormitories for girls until other housing places were found. The remainder of this floor was devoted to women's recreational rooms, including a large assembly room for sewing and domestic science classes. This floor also included dormitory provisions for women.[3]
The fourth floor was given over to "Goodyear University" with accommodation for 5,500 students. There were 65 class rooms and studies which were augmented by fully equipped laboratories on the fourth and fifth floors. Near the front of the building, there was a large student's assembly room.[3]
On the seventh floor, there was a well-equipped picture department.[3] Films were used for educational purposes in classrooms to teach students the details of various operations of manufacturing rubber products. There were also facilities for developing and screening pictures to be used in Akron and in branches all over the world.[4]
In the basement, there were locker rooms with 5,500 lockers, 12 bowling alleys, six rifle ranges, a large clothes checking room and a barber shop.[3] A tunnel from the factory building across the street was created give access to the basement.

WEEK 37 – Senatobia WM, Pre-Remodel (I)
Here's what I was talking about in regards to this décor being special: the spark logos on the department signs are, instead of being printed on as in later versions (and even later versions, lol), actually cut-out here in Senatobia! By the time Southaven, which is the next oldest store locally and thus also usually gets early remodels to new décor packages (though sadly got Cheap Impacted last year, just before black 2.0 rolled out :( ), got its original Impact treatment, the logos had already become filled in (although it's worth noting that that store did get the special pharmacy relocation).

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
Well it's finally going to happen. The weatherman says we are going to get hit with "the BIG ONE"!
Time to sit back and watch the insanity ensue as folks rush off to the grocery store and wipe out the shelves in anticipation of this event.
People around here really do go crazy when they predict snow. I'll bet the folks that live in places like Michigan or upstate New York just laugh at us.
Sigh! I guess I better go get that loaf of bread!
Larry left me this sign on the kitchen counter this a.m.
A repairman working on the marquee for what was once the State Theatre - on State Street the Uptown district of Westerville, OH. The State Theatre opened as a movie house in 1927. It screened films until it closed sometime in the 1970s. It was vacant for years until becoming in turns a furniture store, a consignment shop, and a couple different restaurants, including the current "Barrel & Boar BBQ Gastropub". The marquee is original, restored a few years ago (the "8" was added) and being maintained by the current occupants.
Jimmy John's sign: "Proper Apologies have Three Parts. 1 What I did was wrong. 2. I feel badly that I hurt you. 3. How can I make this better."
A welcoming sign to Lebanon, Missouri at the turn for 66 into town. Actually, this was supposed to be a part of a video, but I'm still working on it.
Above the door of an independent electrical retailer.
I wonder how many such signs are still on display?
Eat. Seriously, go on.. have a snack...
