It shows the weakness of the Catholic Church. They keep priests and monks from having sex so that means they're horny all the time and you better not have women around or they'll lose their minds. Pretty ridiculous. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 148 Posts: 25978 | A thirty-year-old documentary about diners in Pennsylvania. This kind of stuff just fascinates me. They built these diners out of porcelain and stainless steel in the 20s 30s and 40s and they're still being used. They are a huge part of Americana. I wonder how many of these are are still around today. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Is anyone surprised that it is in Greece? They like their boys and men there. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |

Yep, those diners are all over the place here. They are used as film sets all the time. I didn’t realize it was a PA thing We might need to rename the forum “Pennsylvania Tomorrow” with all these recent discussions |

For whatever reason there are more people from PA than you would at all expect. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

| missedhervee Member since: Apr 23, 2021 Threads: 160 Posts: 5493 | My uncle, always a cut up, pulled a classic NJ diner prank back in the day. He and his buddies had a regular diner in the Freehold area that they'd hang out in, He got a rubber hot water bottle and filled it with condensed soup, then hid it under his shirt with the neck / spout facing up, near his collar, but hidden from view. They sat at the diner counter and then he started acting like he was getting sick: gagging, bobbing a bit: he then pretended he was throwing up. He leaned forward, made loud, wretching sounds, and simultaneously squeezed the hot water bottle, forcing the soup to come out and land on the counter, looking like vomitus. His buddies then grabbed spoons and greedily devoured the spilled soup. What happens in NJ diners ... |

The 1900 census has a Florian Lochowiez, born 1871 in Germany; wife Antonette, 1873; son Francis, 1896; son Andrew, 1899 living in Brooklyn. Ancestry.com has Florian Lachowicz, born in 1871, immigrating from Germany in 1885. He was a barber in 1900 and evidently did very well in the trade. Two younger children are in the car and one child in the middle who appears to be about 14 (Francis?) By 1905, they had babies Emily and Elise (NY census 1905) who must be the other children in the car. 1910 census indicates that they owned 548 8th St. They had an English servant, Mary Moriarity. There is no suggestion of the black gentleman driving the auto. Florian died in 1918 and is buried in Holy Cross Cemetery, Brooklyn. but by that time they had two other children, Anthony (called Arthur in 1920 census) and Paul, and female servant, Mary Gray. In 1940 Antonette had a barber shop in NYC and lived with Paul, working in a newsroom, and Elise. Paul M. Lochowiez apparently still lived at 548 8th until his death around 2000. |

I think the song is about Andy Warhol, but I'm not sure...and that might be Pittsburgh bias, also. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T.
