[tommartyn]

@D4x4Bronc

[JoeysFunFarm]

the previous owners must of been collector cuz that jfk pic in the dresser looked like a Norman Rockwell painting if that is an original it is worth over 2500 dollars not joking.but i couldnt tell,camera moved to fast..,nice vid like the old papers,is there any more old stuff down there??

[tommartyn]

@JoeysFunFarm

hey man,

Yeah, this is my grandmothers house that i live at. She's still here, and that is some stuff she's collected over the years. That was a magazine about jfk from soon after he died i think, and the front cover might be a picture of a norman rockwell painting. There's a decent amount of old stuff down there, mostly just interesting stuff, probably nothing of real value. But its alot of fun looking around down there.

[nodint277]

real cool stuff! You should do more of these

[tommartyn]

@nodint277

Thanks man! I'm sure i will, there's still alot more stuff down there to check out.

[tterrag7991]

I agree about how people are stupid now. Long time ago in my history class nobody could tell the teacher what a byplain was.

[tommartyn]

@tterrag7991

yeah man, its a shame.  I'm no better though, i don't take advantage of all the opportunity we get in this country... I'd say i'm part of the problem for sure. I wish i was out there doing something awesome with my life.

[Kingoftehill]

@tommartyn You are doing something awesome with your life. your living MY dream. I hope i get to do what you do someday...

[tommartyn]

@Kingoftehill

Make the most of your life man :)

[MyGta123]

yeah now all america is about is killing each other and robbing people blind

[tommartyn]

@MyGta123

Its a shame man... Alot of it has to do with the economy now... people are really worried about just getting by, instead of coming up with new things. Fucking sucks that all those people had to buy all those huge, horribly cheaply made houses... A 2 year old could tell that they were too much money, not worth it, and they couldn't really afford it in the long run. And of course that they didn't need them... When reality hit, everything went to shit.

[TheBman292]

thats some cool shit man.. the things you find in a basment.i love diggin thru oldhouses and finding stuff like that..

[tommartyn]

@TheBman292

Yeah, it would be awesome to do that for a living some how.

[Jacobd123456]

[tommartyn]

@Jacobd123456

[wingking077]

[tommartyn]

@wingking077

hahah, thanks man. 

Yeah, i never thought about that. that people would lie on facebook like that. Makes perfect sense though.

[greatwhitenorth112]

3:35 damn right man fuck facebook!!!!

[Jobergg]

Lighting one of my old Carbide bicycle lamp

[tommartyn]

@Jobergg

That's pretty cool, the bicycle lamp you have.

Thats just an oil lamp. good for walking around with, down railroad tracks and such

[carrabec99]

[tommartyn]

@carrabec99

[CoRRisioN2142]

[tommartyn]

@CoRRisioN2142

Yeah, its some cool stuff for sure man!

[jackhunter555]

welcome to idiocracy

[tommartyn]

@jackhunter555

hahah, ah god... Yep. My friend saw that movie and told me about it, but said it was scary in a way, because it really seems possible that things could actually go that way. and its true...

[giberish9]

I'd have that laminated. Oldest paper I ever had was printed december 1955. Had a article talking about dizzy dean announcing his retirement.

[tommartyn]

@giberish9

Who was dizzy dean, and what was he retiring from?

[giberish9]

@tommartyn A baseball player. I only know that cause 1 of my favorite old school comedy teams(abbott and costello) had a bit called "Who's on first" and they mention dizzy dean

[tommartyn]

@giberish9

haha, ah, gotcha. i know about the old bit, but i don't know if i ever actually heard the whole thing. i think i mainly heard it referred to and parodied.

[onetoughtechie]

"Dog's Fart Too"  MR. R. I. PODCOCK 1899

[tommartyn]

@onetoughtechie

oh, god, don't get him started on dog flatulence. We'll be here all night. :)

thats awesome, his name kinda looks like R.I.P ODCOCK

[JAMESS30288]

at my house we have wall paper like that of old old ads in my bathroom! lol jersey cream!

[tommartyn]

@JAMESS30288

haha, Nice man! Old ads are awesome :)

[phill903]

That's a very interesting book you have found.

Rare look in to the past and start of the 19Th century...

[tommartyn]

@phill903

I was pretty shocked when i saw the date. Pretty cool. I wonder if they've collected anything else as old as that.

[dedred5]

This is not a joint

[tommartyn]

@dedred5

yeah, i guess there were pens that were referred to as joints back in the day. I thought about looking into that.  still might at some point

[marcelstjean]

pretty cool

[tommartyn]

@marcelstjean

Glad you dug it marcel!

me and mike ingested a massive amount of 151 last night, then he tried to take his s10 blazer across the new area and got high centered. He had to sleep the night in the freezing ass canopy... I set him up a bed and got him a blanket, and there is a wood stove in there now, but man... that had to be cold when the wood burnt down

[theoriginalmodz]

interesting shit

[tommartyn]

@theoriginalmodz

Thanks man!

[thisissexual]

i like the ole license plates!

[tommartyn]

@thisissexual

Me too, i should ask my grandmother if they were actually my from someone in my family at some point, of if they just found them, or bought them somewhere. Cause they weren't alive when those things were made.

[thisissexual]

@tommartyn yeah you should, i collect them and those are some very rare ones so dont get rid of them!

[TheAtxman8669]
