Just returned from Disney World last week and man is it geared to get your $$$$.

Must admit we did have fun !

What really makes me chuckle is when the phone rang and if it was anybody who was calling from out of state you would hear " yea so and so is on the phone and he's calling long distance like it was a big deal because IT WAS!
Nowadays just about...
Thank you Stray Cat for the kodo's and yes I agree that just being born a female does not automatically make you a lady.
That also leads me to another puzzling question that always gnaws at me and
perhaps you can enlighten me on this matter as well.
When and how did women in general "lose" (...
WOW !! This thread really took off :D
"No one cares anymore " Oh how true !
Not only do they not care, they are aware, but they choose not to care

One rule for sure ,it's a summer hat and traditionally you...
Man oh man you said a mouthful.
Take that a step further , first I'd like to talk to a real, live, breathing human instead of those "rotary operator's " that give you the "press 1 for English" etc .etc. etc. and what really get's me going is when the recorded voice states
" thank you for your...
Hello Stray Cat and thanks for being so inviting here in the Powder Room !
The other gentleman as well as yourself pretty much have your finger on the pulse of what I was trying to say ,namely the difference between a "lady" as opposed to a "woman" .
I notice that whenever I am out and...
Dear Miss Retro Chick and Alice Blue ,thank you for responding to my post .
I have been away on vacation and have just returned home yesterday so sorry for the slow response .
