    Manners/Etiquette

    Sorry to have to correct you, but . . . :D . . . I look at the next generation and, in many cases, see absolute rudeness to the point of being surprised when a child isn't rude, including to their own parents. I compare how I treat people to how other generations did and do, and I see that I...

    Rythmitis.

    As I type this, I'm watching Rythmitis (1936) with Toby Wing and Hal LeRoy. I must say; there's a scene with a gent dancing on stilts! I'd never seen that before! He was GOOD! Are there any other movies with people dancing on stilts? What are some of Toby Wing's other movies? She played...

    OTB and Horse Racing

    I've only been to the track a few times, and only once to bet. Today, I woke up very early and went to Santa Anita, where I met with a group of photographers. The five of us spent a few hours taking pictures of the horses and jockeys during training. Here are a few of my shots...

    New Pictures of Clara Bow. (Taken today!)

    I said "pictures." I know naught of video. lol By the way, the old computer is a tad slow at the moment - it's converting 461 images to JPEG and then burning them to a disc! ;) Lee ___________________________ Now I just need to know where to send the disc.

    Tinnitus "Fixes" ?

    My mother has had ringing in her ears since shooting rifles in high school (late '40s, early '50s) and during her first pregnancy was told to cut out salt. She's eaten virtually no salt in more than fifty years and her ears still ring. Fortunately, it's very mild and hasn't affected her ability...

    Odd names for your Pets

    Feel sorry for my brother's cats. His last three in order: Stink, Stink II and (current cat) Booger. My mother has a similar problem: she can't remember names when calling people. Once, while addressing my older sister (her middle child of seven) she listed every last child, her own sisters...

    Odd names for your Pets

    How cute!! We have a tuxedo cat here that we've named Tuxford. I grew up with cats, and as kids my sibs and I would give each not only a name, but a nickname. . . . Several, actually. For instance, my sister had a cat that she'd named Sparkle. When a cousin had a baby girl and stole the name...
