    NOS Ties with "Necktie Worker's Organization" Labels

    I was talking with a fellow who found three never worn ties with original mailing envelopes when he bought his house. These are poor quality cell phone pics but I thought they were cool enough to share here with you!

    "Here's looking at you, kid" and what might get you slapped

    Agreed, although I wasn't presenting any arguments or facts, just my thoughts about the passing trends in what is acceptable and what is not, and inviting input. And yes of course what is appropriate or welcome in personal relationships differs from the professional, but it's flawed to state...

    "Here's looking at you, kid" and what might get you slapped

    This is the point of my post- context, only I'm talking about then ("golden era") versus now.

    "Here's looking at you, kid" and what might get you slapped

    During the golden era ladies were sometimes called "kid" as a term of endearment. Today it might be a term of oppression. Imagine Ingred Bergman replying to "Here's looking at you kid" with "How derogatory! You don't respect me, do you?" I'm just thinking about how some things once would be...

    Recreation with a Weak Partner

    The ability and mastered skill to have fun and help other people feel at ease is what I look for in a partner of any kind.

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    Levi's 512 Jeans I have been looking for a high waist jean for tall gals (I'm 5' 10"). I mail ordered some 512 jeans and love them! They sit at my true waist! None of this low rise nonsense! And a size "long" is just right for me which is a 34" inseam. Now they do have a stretchchy slimming...

    Vintage Beach Chairs & Umbrellas

    Actually, we've had so much rain in the Northeast that I maybe should ask to see some vintage rainslickers. :(

    Brokenhearted breakup songs for gals...

    Sinatra!!!!!!! "Wee small hours of the morning" and "When no one cares" are tops! When I'm downtrodden I don't like to be talked or sang out of it, I want to get into it then pick myself up and dust myself off!

    Would you invite them over for dinner?

    I know. ;) The husband likes to make candy and he promised he'd bring me some! I'm also going to have them over at my Christmas party since they love that time as much as I do, and I think they'll appreciate my vintage decorating, especially my aluminum tree!

    No, silly. :)

    Would you invite them over for dinner?

    It was pretty amazing- I asked the husband, while we were all sitting in the kitchen (on my new found chrome dinette set, wheeee), "do you still feel like you are at home?" He said that he did, "having lived there for over forty years." The Mrs. was busy showing the photos while he told us...

    Would you invite them over for dinner?

    They came over today for two hours and brought a pile of photo albums. We heard stories and saw pictures of our house being built, at Christmastime in the 50's and more. It was a wonderful time for us and them! I scanned in many of the pics of our house and have pics of today (but won't be posting.)

    Wonderful! I hope to own a vintage car someday. Or maybe I already do, driving a 12 year old Honda!
