The Hurricanes of the NHL were known as the Whalers when they played in Hartford.

Hartford auto insurance provides affordable automobile insurance to drivers over 50.
...and their commercials are so much more classy than those of Progressive. Take it from a loyal Hartford customer, it pays to have The Buck in your corner.

Over 50 years have gone by since my great uncle Jerry, who was nicknamed "Iron Neck", passed away, but I still think of him often.
And yes, this is a true story.

Often, I wonder about the odd nicknames people give their uncles and other family members.

Members, of course, get the preferential treatment at The RCM Ranch, but everyone who walks through our doors are always welcome to come on in and sit a spell.
Sit a spell with Uncle Jerry "Iron Neck" Margalotti back in the day and he just might have shown you how he got his nickname.
His nickname no doubt had a magical meaning as many in those days did, from railroading hang outs, or just another of those very colorful names that came about on the corner at some point, when life was bustling on that corner, which has fallen into disrepair, been given up and will be gone shortly to make way for something temporary, as businesses go, so to say.

As businesses go, so to say, into a liquidation of their inventory, which is typically coined as an "everything must go!" sale or "store closing sale", we have learned through past experiences that it doesn't necessarily mean that everything will be sold and out the door, or that the owner of the business actually intends to shutter.
Is it merely the wild imagination of the rambling redneck, or is Miss Silkie just sitting there toying with us? Some of her recent contributions, well, I can't seem to make heads, nor tails, from. Is it me? Should I go back to my alma mater (John Tyler, as we true Tylerites prefer) and spit a plug of tobacco at anyone who claims to be an educator? I feel like, either, they failed me, or I'm failing myself here.
I've caused myself a bit of a bald spot, what, with all the head scratching.

The business actually intends to shutter its windows, which makes perfect sense, seeing as how a tropical storm is coming.

Coming soon, a follow-up contribution to this one.
This one will have to do for now, as I've got more important things to think about.
Think about what you post, because the internet, including the Fantastic Word Game, or TFWG as most prefer, is forever.

The internet, including the Fantastic Word Game, or TFWG as most prefer, is forever and so are two recent contributions with which I have issues.
CT, your thoughts please:
First one would be rosecity's #47830. I am really needing a verb. You can't make me believe it's implied. Should be 'Coming soon IS...'.
And second one also belongs to rosecity, #47825 where it says 'everyone who walks through our doors are'. Should be 'everyone who walks through our doors IS' because you are playing off 'everyone' and everyone is, not everyone are.
CT, Mr. DOL, your thoughts please on those issues and also your thoughts on how you completely missed those two issues. Thank you very much.

Dispute the issue, if you must, but WMC is going to force me to go full-tilt and call on The Rock to pay him a visit for some smackdown laying.
If you smell what the redneck is cookin'.

At the box office of your local cinema, you will soon find a sign reading "Coming Soon, Twisters."
WMC, I'm going to rule "no offense" on rose's "coming soon" entry. There's no verb, but then, there's no verb in "Good morning, everyone" and "Happy birthday, dear." Would you also be calling for demerits on those?
But you are indeed correct on "everyone." Three demerits coming rcm's way later this morning. I don't want to wake the petite blonde intern so early just to put her to work.

Twisters is a movie my wife and I are looking forward to seeing since the original Twister is a favorite that we have seen at least 2 dozen times.
For those you wondering how Uncle Jerry got the nickname, "Iron Neck". According to family legend, as a young man hanging out at a pool hall in Newark, NJ he once bent over and placed his head under a full-sized slate pool table. With nothing but the back of his head and the muscles in his neck, Uncle Jerry then proceeded to lift one end of that pool table completely off the floor to the astonishment of those who witnessed the daring display. Hence, the nickname "Iron Neck".

2 dozens times I asked for a burger and a grape sno-cone, but The Cajun Queen wasn't open for business so I went to the freezer and cooled down with a cherry popsicle.
Word from the barn is ol' Kayla's quite a good little burger chef and sno-cone maker, so I may just look that direction on her next visit to Texas...and just in case, "sno-cone" is a Southern twist on the word snowcone. I'd rather not upset the akways lurking PBI until she has graced me with that sweet, sweet recipe.
