FRIDGE II
The long-delayed sequel to Fridge begins with Fausta Wertz’s stark food-cooling appliance:
It’s chilling, is what it is. Next, scroll down to image 42 to see Auntie KC celebrating her husband’s retirement from the US Navy - and simply look below to see her fine fridge, featuring sonogram images of the first grandchild:
The highlight of Stuart Fullerton’s fridgescape? “My Terrorist Hunting Permit - no bag limit, no tag required! Got it on the mall in DC a couple of years ago.” The permit, that is, not the fridge:
No terrorist hunting permit on longtime reader Kae’s fridge, although she’s evidently sorted for home delivery of pizza, seafood, and - if’n my eyes don’t deceive me - booze:
“Sheesh,” writes Spiny Norman. “Had I known the inside of the Gaia-raping appliance was acceptable, I’d have sent this sooner. It’s not the whole fridge,of course, just the only part that matters: the ‘multicultural’ part.” Keep on celebrating diversity, Spiny:
“It might look like I am discarding my fridge because I have succumbed to the ‘global warming’ threat,” says reader Filcan. “But no, sir. I replaced it another one.” Thus the refrigeration cycle continues:
This is one hot fridge; custom paint and handles, plus fridge goblins. Well done, Harry:
RebeccaH, another longtimer here, claims her fridge is “boring”, but that lobster magnet - proudly free of any note-holding functional role - elevates it above any common street fridge:
There may be one or two fridges still to come. Stay cool.
I’ll have you know, that lobster magnet is one of my proudest magnet possessions! I brought it all the way from Peggy’s Cove, Nova Scotia! Anyway, it beats the church key and the button doll magnet from Wal-Mart.
O/T Poetry contest at Crittenden’s!
Please resume fridge comments. Thank you and have a good day.
Are those Cooties I spot on Harry’s snazzy orange fridge? Excellent!

2. KC: Congrats to your husband and thanks for your and his service! (Former squid here.) I assume the state magnets are places you’ve visited or were stationed? What Navy base in Montana were you at?
3. Stuart: What’s the weapon of choice hunting terrorists? Hammer and chisel? Eew.
4. Kae, “Golden Harvest Hot Bread Kitchen” sounds yummy.
5. Spiny, “Wide Me” beer?
6. Filcan, nice of you to practice the safety of removing the doors. Let that thing sit there by your Dodge for a few years and you could be one of my neighbors. Put an old commode and a washing machine out there, too.
7. Harry, wow Cooties. I remember that game.
8. RebeccaH, love the lobster magnet.Ash_, I think you know that the point of the excercise is that the adornment of the fridge (or the contents, or what is stacked on top) is a window on the lives/personalities of the people that use the fridge. For instance, apparently Blair eats Cambell’s Crickets and Beans soup. See, that tells us just a little about him.
Now, don’t go to any effort or anything, considering your delicate condition.
#5 Yes, those are real Cooties[tm] from the game about 1955. You roll the dice, and win a body part from which you assemble a complete Cootie to win.
I was very happy to find a complete set in the original box at a thrift store. They also work very well as scarecrows, warning off other bugs from the canteen.

Widmer Brothers Hefewiezen. Truly outstanding.

Just after we slipped across the border from the south in the 1980s, I came across this road-sign advice while waiting to be served at our local stockfeed store.
It was then that I realised that Queensland was different from the southern states and that’s why we live longer up here.
Sadly, the place is now infested with frenetic southerners who have to get everything finished by yesterday.#12 - Nope, no Navy bases, I have Montana magnets because I’m from Montana. The others are places I liked or magnets I liked…and a couple my husband picked up in his travels.
Kae, I like your Garfield.
Harry, I may have to think about painting mine like that one day - I love it!
RebeccaH, somewhere around here (the cats like to play with it) I have a (wooden) brown slug my hubby got me in Bremerton, Washington. It looks real. I like your lobster better.
I fear Fausta’s fridge. And yet… I desire it. I want it to punish me. To pour cold shaved ice upon me until I scream for mercy. Or gin. (Yes, I’ve been out and about in the hot Florida sun today, why do you ask?)
Posted by Andrea Harris, Administrator on 2007 06 16 at 08:00 PM • permalinkDamn technological advances. We have recently replaced our 30 year old Westinghouse with a new Fisher&Paykel; unit with a stainless finish. And now magnets don’t stick to the door! It makes for a tidier, but boring, kitchen. (And all the discount dockets and important stuff are stuck to the bit of the side that sticks out from the cupboards.)
Thanks Pogria. Remember that Black Betty thing a few days ago? I thought of you when I found this. Hope you like it.
Posted by dean martin on 2007 06 17 at 05:10 AM • permalinkHi Dean,
thanks very much for thinking of me. Tha is so sweet of you. I did enjoy the vid of the pod racers.
The Black Betty vid appealed more because of the muscle cars. I can picture myself in the cars while the music is going. I can’t see myself in a pod racer!!
This is our Sunday car.
So, you can see why I love fast cars and fast music clips. ;-)

I’d send mine, but it’s covered in pictures of scantily clad ladies.
Most of them are me.
