I use a heat pump to heat and cool my shop and garage. The house has gas heat and a whole house air conditioner.
It's the first home I have had air conditioning in. When I was building the shop and the garage I knew that I would need heat and cooling so I could work in there the year around.

I somehow got into the wrong thread again, I'll look for the correct thread.
Sorry

I have been to the Rainier brewery. Great tour and good beer in their tasting room.
I remember all those old commercials.
I did my part to keep them in business years ago.

'Hopalong Cassidy,' The Cowboy Who Brought Westerns to the Small Screen

It's unique to see a character so beloved that they cross over between films, books, television and even radio programs. But the fictional cowboy hero "Hopalong Cassidy" did just that. One character went on to have a lasting legacy that inspired the genre of TV westerns as well as character-themed memorabilia.

Short Stories
In 1904, author Clarence E. Mulford first created the character in a series of short stories. Called "Hopalong" due to the fact that his wooden leg made him appear to move around with a slight hop, the original depictions of the cowboy were a bit gruff.

That's kind of spooky in a predictive sort of way. They are all socially distanced, and the personal scooters are in use right now. Replacing masks with a 360 degree plexaglass cockpit is not that big of a leap.

Oh the advocation of violence

Ralph has to be the most violent character on tv, well except for Wyle E Coyote.

Buffalo Bob most of the time, or, depending of the skit, sometimes Clarabell The Clown, who in some versions of the character, was also played by Captain Kangaroo. But I wasn't really a big fan of the kids show TV personalities. I'd rather be outside, but if I did get stuck indoors because of the rain, I was mostly watching for the cartoons they usually played on most of the L.A. local channels.
