    Gramophones, Phonographs, Victrolas....

    Strong wood polish smell? Is it some sort of wax a previous owner applied? Or? I would think it needs to "gas off," (haha) Meaning leave the lid up for as long as possible to let the solvents evaporate. But after a YEAR, that can't be the case... (nice find)

    Coral Castle

    Images linked from Facebook generally don't work, but I don't think you have linked to an image at all. Sounds like a good day - try again?

    Business shoe question.

    If that wouldn't work for business (accounting), wow - I can't imagine what would. Unless your firm is sneakers and polos?

    The Closet Door is Open - Lavender Ladies & Gents of the Golden Age of Hollywood

    I think it should be said clearly that this is not a thread for lifestyle judgements or sideways snark about what are ultimately the very private intimate lives of other people. We've seen no real problems so far (though some members may feel differently - I welcome comment via PM), but it seems...

    This is just one opinion. This is the first I've seen this Elephant stuff mentioned. Here is an extensive thread on the subject.

    The Closet Door is Open - Lavender Ladies & Gents of the Golden Age of Hollywood

    Absolutely. And same-sex friendships were very different prior to our time. Some biographers have tried to contort Lincoln's close friendship and common sleeping arrangements with Joshua Speed into evidence of Lincoln's homosexuality.

    The Closet Door is Open - Lavender Ladies & Gents of the Golden Age of Hollywood

    There is a grand story about Barbara Stanwyck, gathering blooms on both sides of the fence, poker games at Robert Taylor's house, John Wayne... ah well. Another time. ;-) There are interesting whispers about the close neighbors Katharine Hepburn and Greta Garbo. And then there's Billy Haines...

    Medical Practicioners of Old

    I remember the same smallpox vaccine. The sight of the school nurse sent me into shaking terrors. Every time that woman showed up, we were gonna get stuck.
