    The fall of the phone

    Because if it was green, we wouldn't know when to stop mowing. :p I'm slowly embracing the technology that's available these days. I went years evading cell phone ownership for the very reasons many of you here have, too. But I got one about six months ago and replaced my landline. I do...

    Valentine's Day. What's your view?

    No more player piano rolls

    A few months ago, Fedoragent and I went to a C.A.P.S. (California Antique Phonograph Society) sale. There were hundreds of vintage player piano rolls for sale. Many of them in their original boxes. Lee

    Vintage Books

    Although I didn't specify "Favorite" vintage books, I started a "]similar thread back in November of 2007. Enjoy the read and the pictures. :) Lee

    Armageddon..."There is Still Time"

    If you really want a scare, go to the Meteor Crater near Winslow, Arizona: There's a chart in the museum showing comets, meteors and asteriods that are approaching Earth (each one setting a new speed record), and whose paths may very well put one or another on a collision course with our little...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I'm still looking for one of his books in the Dortmunder series. Funny, funny writing. I've also read one of his many Parker (one name only) books that he wrote as Richard Stark: Talk about hard-hitting crime! If you're intersted, Donald E. Westlake. He will be missed. Another favorite...

    Garage Finds. I found this '40s Lincoln in a (sort of) Garage, today. 1. But I had to shoot over the hood of this '30s Packard to get the shot. 2. You can view the rest of the photos in this gallery here. Here's number 1 in black and white. Lee

    I love books. I also love fashion, especially vintage, and photography from all eras, and when all three are combined I go into a minor spending frenzy. So, imagine the warmth in my heart when this late Christmas present to myself arrived from Amazon, today. I got it on sale at $47.25, down from...

    Thank you. The hardest part was standing directly over the match as I struck it, and then leaning into the smoke as I lit the candle. I did that way, way, WAY too many times. :D

    Shooting smoke is just something I wanted to try. (I added a couple more, by the way.) I just kept lighting, blowing out and relighting a candle against a black background. I lit them with a single strobe and then manipulated the colors in PhotoShop. Lee
