Things You Don't See Anymore Part 3

I found a video of this gadget in operation.

Oh...so it's only one function at a time.

There's really no point to it that I can see. It doesn't even seem fun just to play around with.

I used to have a Palm IIIc, with one of the foldable keyboards that third party companies were selling. They were very cool!

Would you believe Poppycock is still being made? It is now under the Orville Redenbachers name and owned by ConAgra Foods.

You can buy it in Big Lots, Wal-Mart, and other stores

My neighbor has one similar to this, I think it's called an "Argo". I rode in the lake with him in it.

One of my friends' father won one of these in some contest, but it had a driver seat in the from and a molded bench seat in the back. No seat belts in the back, IIRC. We used to love riding in the back over crazy hills in it, and he once drove us across a pond in it. What we didn't realize was how slow it moves in the water, and how there is no built in way to steer.
