    Vintage Date???

    I put that together with insecurity, for sure, but it took me a while to realize. I had an experience with someone who was violently insecure with his masculinity (often taking it out on me) and one of the things he used to berate me for was wanting to contribute to a night out. He wouldn't...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    The saddle shoes sound cute! Good for you for wearing them, and for ignoring the play-school cliques. (You think you graduate high school...) I would be offended also, not because I would value their opinion, but because it is none of their business. It's surprising how many people have the...

    Driving golden era cars in the modern era

    Pontiac Grand Am SE. Its a 54 litre tank, and I clock about 400km per fill. EDIT: My math is bad. That would be 13.5 litres per 100km, which is 17.8 miles per gallon. Bit better than 10... :embarassed:

    Rue's Movie Picks

    Watched it. Loved it. She has a real dramatic depth to her acting - A true hidden gem! Rue, have you seen The Desperate Hours (1955)? One of Bogey's last movies - Truly gripping is the only way to describe it!

    Do Ladies notice a Man's shoes?

    Too funny! I think the real reason why people look at the floor - and if you really pay attention to your behaviour the next time, chances are you will notice it - is to avoid eye contact with other people.

    The general decline in standards today

    I've mulled this over many times, and I still don't have a definite answer. My best theory for the existence of this attitude is that, like many other ideas and concepts, the original meaning has been lost in time. Take the original rebel: James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause. What made him a...

    The general decline in standards today

    I believe so. Sense of community isn't around anymore. How well do you know your neighbours? Would you be comfortable asking them for a favour, or doing one for them? You probably don't even know their last names. I used to take the train to work every morning and night. Nobody talked, or...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    I think people are more inclined to make negative comments when they sense you aren't 100% confident with your look. Before I got used to wearing hats, for example, people would all the time look at me funny or tell me how ridiculous I looked. But I was determined to wear them, and once my...

    Which style of makeup should i go for.

    kamikat's right. If you went for the 50's look, you could probably just powder in the whole shape, but it would require some grooming. Though, cleaning up stray hairs on men doesn't look strange at all, it looks better.

    Driving golden era cars in the modern era

    OT: I get 13.5km/L on my tank, which is roughly 10 miles per gallon. And its a 6 cylinder. It's not even a cool car :( I'm not happy right now.

    Did General Motors destroy the LA mass transit system?

    The red car is beautiful, Deco Doll. I have no idea how old ours are, but I never get tired of seeing them go by: Rathdown, there has been intense scrutiny on Toronto City Hall and the TTC for a number of years. I'm not sure how much factual evidence is available, but the rumours exist...

    Yesterdays Tomorrow Today!

    I am fascinated by things like this. What could be cooler than reading predictions for the years we live in now? :D Reminds me of this: The 1958 Simca Fulgar concept car was designed for use in the year 2000.

    Did General Motors destroy the LA mass transit system?

    The TTC is just one example of this - It happens all over the world. Though it isn't privatized, they're toying with options like getting rid of the streetcar completely (Judge Doom is alive and well), selling subway names to businesses for profit ("You transfer at Loblaws station..."), and...

    The Middy Thread

    You're most welcome. Not only does it fit into our budgets, we can get exactly the cut we want :) I whipped through the thread and found some great results pictures. All these ladies used the tutorial: CherryRed, FaintlyMacabre, wahine, swinggal, Daimere, Lenore, and AdrianLvsRocky. A few...

    Curler help needed!

    How much experience do you have with roller sets? As I'm sure the ladies will tell you, trial and error is the best way to learn. If it helps, my hair in those after pictures was done with 1-1/4" plastic snap-on rollers. NOT comfortable to sleep on, but so easy to set: I rolled the entire...

    Driving golden era cars in the modern era

    I could just about afford a $35,000 T-Bird - Many modern cars are priced as such. The maintenance would be a different story. Once again, I need to marry rich. Didn't know that overdrive was available in them. Makes it more ideal! That is one beautiful piece of machinery, definitely worth...
