What was that Famous Story about a Man making a Fake Coin out of Ice in order to Buy Heat for his room? I believe it was set in England.

A Man Lived in a room that had a Coin Operated Heater. He Would Put a Shilling in the Machine, turn the handle and the heater would run for a few Hours... So... Since he Often Did Not Have Money... He made a coin shaped mold on the windowsill outdoors and filled it with water... When it Froze, he put the coin shaped ice into the machine and "bought" heat for a few hours... Then the Fake Coin melted removing all evidence of the Crime... 

If you remember the name of this Famous Old Time Tale please Leave a Comment or email me at gregvan [at] yahoo [dot] com.


Coin Operated Gas Meter.



When walking down “Main Street” at the new Vigo County History Center, you will pass the Wabash Theater, Meis Department Store and a general store. Next you will notice a set of wrought iron stairs from Terre Haute Gas Company. The beauty you see sitting on the stairs is a gas meter, made by American Meter Company and “established” in 1834 in New York City. The company made its presence in New York, Chicago and Philadelphia. This particular model seems to have been manufactured in Philly.

What makes this piece very interesting to us, is that it was coin-operated. Much like a jukebox or slot machine, you paid as you played.
SG Said: 
I stayed for a week in a furnished London flat in 1995. It had a wall mounted combi gas boiler for DHW and central heat.

One morning we had no heat or hot water and could not light the boiler. My traveling companion was steaming and wanted to call the rental agent. I said “Wait a sec, let me check something”.

The gas meter, behind an access panel in the kitchen, had a mag stripe card slot. The LCD display read “£0.0”.

There was a new card sitting on top of the meter. I stuck it in, heard a click and the display read “£50.0”. Presto! Back in business.

Saved by the habit of reading old English novels. That’s where I found out about coin operated gas meters. Since the temperature there almost never drops below freezing, they don’t have to worry about frozen pipes.

SOG Said:
I actually used to have one on display in my office at the gas company. One of the interesting things about those meters they typically worked with nickels. So for those clever folks who wanted to steal gas they made them selves little trays the shape of nickels filled them with water and froze them. They then used the frozen nickel shaped fake coins to get the meters to work. The old timers would know the customers were stealing gas because instead of finding coins in the meter they found "WATER".

A Nice Guy Gets His Just Desserts. A Mystery Story - and My Dream about Ram Dass

I was Opening the Mail at Our New House When... I Read this Letter.

"Dear Susan: Thank You for the Most Wonderful Night of My Life... I can Certainly See Why You are a Professional... Here's that $28 Dollars I Owe You. Let's Meet Again for a Romantic Interlude. "
  ~~~~~~ Thanks, John ~~~~~~

I Assumed that the Former Resident was a "Working Girl" and Since I Knew Where She Lived Now... I decided to go visit and deliver her mail in Person. Hopefully, Since I was Such a Nice Guy, She Would Service Me for Free... After All, I Could have Just Kept the Letter and The Money... 

Ding Dong! 

and What Happens Next? Who Know!

It's a MYSTERY!

Free Love Hat for sale at Zazzle Gregvan

This entire story happened to me in a dream and I Woke Up Right after I Rang the Bell... SO... Even I Don't Know What Happens!

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

another Dream!
We were walking towards the Entrance of the Los Gatos Library and there was a Thin Old Man dressed in a Small Bathing Suit ahead of Us. He pulled on the entrance to the Children's room and It was Locked... Disappointed, he turned around and I asked: "Are You Looking for the Man Who Works There?" He Said: "NO" and I Motioned towards the Main Entrance. We all Entered. He seemed lost so I asked: "Do you Need Help?" as I would ask any Lost Old Man... He Said: "NO" and then I asked again: "Can I Help You?" He said: "No. I'm Fine." and then we went on Our Own Ways. By That time it was Obvious to Me That he was Ram Dass and That it was a Rather "Heavy" encounter to Ask Ram Dass If I Could Help Him... a Meaningful Event... and I was Shaking... So we went downstairs and I went searching for a Book that I Has Started reading before (about Philosophy) - and on the same shelf was a large picture book of the Grateful Dead's Fare Ye Well Tour with four CDs (that were missing) and My friend asked me why I would want to check out that book and I said: "Too Look for Pictures of Myself." and then I woke up and Typed this Document... It's Best to Type it Up before I forget it... For Certain, I would have tried to help any Lost Old Man but It seems Important that I Offered Ram Dass Help in my dream. That's One Of His Main Teachings... 

He Wrote The Book: Remember, Be Here Now... and THAT Got My Attention because of the ART! Here's a Picture of about a Hundred Drawings in that book...

BREAKING: A HUGE win for free speech! 🎉 For 7 years, Resolute Forest Products has sought to silence Greenpeace USA, simply because we exercised our First Amendment right to expose their destructive business practices.
We are beyond grateful the Court defended the right to call out corporations that prioritize profit > people. Because the truth is, this fight was never just about Greenpeace: it was an attempt to silence all those who speak truth to power. And we need the right to raise our voices now more than ever–against toxic chemical spills, against oil wells in our communities, and against attacks on our democracy. #WeWillNotBeSilenced 🗣️ #StopSLAPPS🛑

What Would San Francisco Be Like if Japan Had Won World War Two?

That's the Subject of the Science Fiction Book... "The Man in the High Castle" by Philip K Dick... 


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Vwal-FySkQ <--- Link to the Book Read Out Loud. 

In the book, Characters throw the I Ching to help them decide what to do... In the Real World, The Author Actually Threw the I Ching while writing the book... to use the ancient wisdom to help write the plot of the story... How the story ends was absolutely chosen by "The Oracle" because the Author had planned for a different ending... 

also... The Author was working at his wife's custom jewelry business during the day... and writing the book at night... 

A Character in the Story Makes Custom Jewelry for a Living... and has a great deal of trouble selling it... The Rulers of San Francisco only like to collect "Authentic" Antique American Products... and there is a Huge Business Creating Fakes that look like the "Real" Thing... For Example: Colt 44 Pistols or Mickey Mouse Wristwatches... 

The Author was using vast quantities of amphetamines... That allowed him to work day and night... 

and eventually it killed him... a stroke and then a heart attack... but first he wrote a LOT of Paranoid Fiction... 

and there is a Book within a Book in this story... 

"The Grasshopper Lies Heavy" - is a Speculative Fiction about What San Francisco would have been like if America Had Won WW2... 

The Author of that book Lived in a Castle High in the Rocky Mountains near Denver, Colorado... a Fortress that could be Easily Defended... But he got too Paranoid about Taking the Tram up there because he thought the Tram Might NOT Stop at His Home but would continue all the way to Heaven... or The Stars...

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.
