Sorry, my bad. It's a Feista San Antonio commemorative bottle, from 1977. 32 oz. glass bottle. Oh yeah, it's still in there. The bottle's never been opened and it still looks fine, just flat I imagine. :lol:
Real pretty design on there, too.

I am never selling that bottle. :lol: It's been sitting in my closet for several years, hadn't taken it down in a while so I had to double check.
That is too cool. :D
PZelda 03-13-2004, 02:56 AM This reminds me of the one time, when we were moving back in September. I was going through one of my sister's boxes that she hadn't taken with her when she moved out in 2000, to make sure there wasn't anything I needed to throw out. Anyhoo. I came across an empty can of Sprite...I have no freaking clue how old it was, but it was definitely pre-2000, because it had the narrow mouth on the top. :eek:
I thought to myself, "Ewww, nasty! I'm throwing this out!". Good thing I decided to look around...

I think they stopped those when I was REALLY young or before I was born...I have heard of them though...And speaking of poking holes, my sis and I used to do that...We would poke the center of the top with a knife or soemthing and drink..:lol:

There's also a glass mug from Jack in the Box that I've had since around the same time that Dr. Pepper bottle was sold. On the bottom it has "Have a nice day."

I dunno if it's just me, but I've stopped drinking a particular soda when they changed the design on it...I still have Pepsi occasionally, but not as often...I hate their look now...And Coke was pretty wild there for a while, but they're back to their (revamped) old look again, which I like. :D
Ahhhhh, me too. I used to drink Dr Pepper like crazy when their cans still looked like that. :lol:

Girl Beaten, in Coma After Dare to Kiss
BALTIMORE, Md. -- Police in Baltimore say three women and two girls have been arrested in an attack that put a 12-year-old girl in a coma.
The child was in a coma for several days and had a breathing tube in her throat but has improved and is communicating with detectives.
Police say the attack happened during a party Feb. 28.
According to authorities, the incident began when a 12-year-old boy at the party was dared to kiss the girl, Nicole Townes. When he did, the boy's 14-year-old girlfriend allegedly began attacking Townes. Police believe the older girl was encouraged by her mother.
Police say the attack escalated, with other children and adults joining in. Police say the girl was beaten for at least 30 minutes.
She was taken to a hospital, where she was in a coma. Her condition improved Thursday, and she began communicating with police, according to Baltimore TV station WBAL-TV.
Monique Baldwin, 36, and Erin Baldwin, 19, were charged with attempted first-degree murder, first- and second-degree assault, conspiracy to commit child abuse and giving a false statement, said Baltimore City police Detective Donny Moses, who said he didn't know the relationship between the two.
Kenya Keene, 25, was charged with second-degree assault, conspiracy to commit child abuse and giving a false statement.
Two unidentified teens, ages 13 and 14, were also arrested, but Moses said he did not know the specific charges against them.
Police said others were involved in the attack and they may make more arrests.
The women and girls gave untrue statements about what happened, saying Townes fell and hit her head on a wall, Moses said, but doctors and a caller with a tip told police Townes had been beaten.

It's disgusting and pathetic, especially that girl's mother taking part in it. Did you remember that group of high school kids who took part in a hazing? I think they were freshman trying to make it on the cheerleading squad. There were at least 100 or more students involved, all of them beating the girls, dumping paint and....other things on them, etc. Of course, the school said nothing could be done since it took place off campus, and that they kids didn't really do that much harm. :rolleyes:

I remember hearing that story ages ago...And I remember Seventeen magazine did like two or three stories about hazing in the last few years...Thank God I never took part in any hazing activities...I wasn't in too many activities in HS...I was in DECA and CloseUp in 10th/11th grades, and a class officer at the deaf school all 4 years of HS...but that was it.

Oh good grief, thank GOD we didn't have cell phones when I was in school. They'd have yanked them right out of our hands. What is it with 11 year olds having them? :lol:
With the bullies, they need to do something about it NOW. I really don't think we can get away with thinking that "it'll get better" and "just ignore it." Not when you see things like Columbine and bomb threats all over the place. Kids threatening to kill each other. Happens more and more down here.

My high school had a designated area, too. About the time I entered my sophomore year, they did away with it. But even then kids would still sneak out there during lunch breaks and try to smoke. It used to be an open campus as well, but by my freshman year they decided to do away with kids eating off campus.

AHHHHHHH. Yes, the other weekend, I was at the mall and saw a 12 year old girl w/ a cell phone...she was swerving ina nd out of traffic...That is, walking traffic. I just wanted to yank her cell phone from her and throw it at the wall. SHUT THE HELL UP AND GET OFF THAT DAMN PHONE ALREADY.

For as long as I can remember, it's always been closed campus for 9th/10th graders and open campus for 11th/12th graders. I was a good girl and obeyed the rules. :D

We couldn't go off campus but we could take our food outside. They had picnic tables or we could sit on the sidewalks by the buildings.

Our cafeteria was right across from the boys gym, so a few of the kids would eat over there by the front entrance. They had a nice area for us with picnic tables and vending machines, and that's where we ate most of the time.

Did your HS ever do a senior edition newspaper issue? Mine did (they would come out in May and we would have two issues for that month), and many a time, seniors would confess to sneaking off campus for lunch during their 9th/10th grade years. :lol:
Oh I remember reading those! A lot of the quotes from various people were hilarious. Quite a few remained anonymous, but if you knew them well enough, it was pointless. :lol: :lol:

It's actually a two-story building, but is hard to see. The top floor is a weight room floor...and you can't see the first-floor classroom windows....but even so, they can't be opened anyway.

We didn't have any windows in our school, except if you went up to the 2nd floor of the band hall. Which smelled like you went back to the 60s, if that makes any sense. Just had that old yearbook smell, ya know? I loved it back there.
Mr. Television 03-13-2004, 05:48 AM We had windows. Looking out of them was the highlight of my day.:lol:

After I left, they decided to build a seperate building, just for the band. Used to be empty right there and if there was a game that week, the band would practice there. You can see part of the school in the background.

On the first floor, to the right of that door there, is a muesum the school started about 10 years ago. They have carpentry classes in the left side of the building, and the entire 2nd floor is empty...it's not in use right now...but it's so cool exploring up there...and if you go through that door, they have an underground tunnel. :D

Allison, I want to visit that school. That is gorgeous! Reminds me very much of my junior high, which was built in the early 1900s and used as an elementary and high school for many years.

Hey thanks, Sonny. Just took a look at yours again, had to see those Tv Guide covers once more <--- my favorites! That was cool of you to add the Rifleman and Daniel Boone pics back in to the dramas gallery. I still don't understand why Mike would take all of his out. :(

And there's a hot tub that you can see (by the glass door over there). The hot tub sucks, too. :lol: People are always overcrowding it and making it flood into the pool. :cuss: :lol:
