This is a block east of me, we're on the edge of town where the fair grounds and grain elevators are. I think Guntown is much more interesting than the newer side of town where all the ranch houses look alike. The elevator across the street owns this old bulding and they used to use it for storage. I wonder what they're going to do with it? It's too big for the museum crooks to steal. I like this building and I hope they never tear it down. I love the doors. It still has cinder block and board benches in front where the old timers still sit and visit while they wait for thier turn in line. Lots of Monsanto crap down here. Tanks of it. Fuck Monsanto. I put that second pic on real big in case you want to look at it closer.

Liars Benches. A few years ago this town decided the old fairgrounds wasn't good enough anymore so they spenta gazillion dollars on the big fancy fairground and Budweiser Event Center out by I-25. They ruined the county fair for me.
Does anyone go there like they did to the old one?
Fair attendance is down but dayum we got hockey now woooohoooo in that big fancy arena. Last year I did go to see Celtic Women out there and that was pretty cool
I like the smell of old buildings. Old wood and varnish.

That sounds like a school smell, Jar. Were you in wrestling or B-ball?
Hi Pat. The first serious school I attended was an in Krems, Austria. Basically Elementary school in a very old building that looked as if it was built in the 1700,s. Everything smelled of old wood, fresh pastries. No shoes were allowed in class, so we would all change into slippers and go to class.
When I came back to the US, I again attended Military boarding school and got into Wrestling and Boxing. My brainwashing years at these fat farms for aggressive people were filled with buildings like the one you posted. Oh yes, the great plumbing and clanking from the radiator heaters as well.

That does not sound like fun..at all.
You are right about that!. Military school and all male boarding school limits a boy's interaction with girls of that age. I compare it to an unsocialized puppy.
I'd rather home-school and involve children in after school athletic clubs and teach boys to dance!. My son dances at every one of his school functions with every girl he can find, and I am glad because it evolves his capacity to be affectionate and is a safe form of intimacy. Too many boys stand in corners without making that first step to ask a girl a question.
