It's amazing the little things in life that you don't realize you are missing...at least every few weeks I'll have a real, live, in-person guy to talk the ponies with! I discovered two other things...I had a hell of a lot of hair, and now I'm almost completely white

next time in waynesboro stop in the little news agency by the old john wallace dinner. they sell DRF and some of the old-timers are in there thumbing through it.

Believe it or not, I grew up going there, the old Waynesboro News Agency...was owned and operated by Mr Funk who lived across the alley from my folks. It has pool tables in the back now and has been modernized a little but still quaint, use to have an old popcorn popping machine inside the front door, great soda fountain. My father co-owned the drug store across the street (corner of Main and S. Potomac) called Blair's...long since gone. It had an old icecream and soda fountain, mooseheads on the walls...the whole Norman Rockwell bit. Loved Waynesboro as a kid!

Yeah, sometimes the Sheetz will have one but normally the only place in town to get them is there. Living in Chambersburg, I can always swing by the OTW and pick one up.
