    I found a new beverage. It is named, simply, Affirmation Wine. It lists 15% alcohol by volume. The more you drink, the better you feel about yourself. It's like a participation trophy for adults.

    Old smells, that immeditately transport you back in time?

    Back in my teenage years, there was a mens' cologne that was part of the English Leather brand. It was called "Timberline" and I always liked how it smelled on me. It was one that lasted for hours, as did English Leather. I liked both of these and British Sterling the best. There was an...

    Let's write a story together...........

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Linoleum, congolium and the like were replaced by vinyl flooring and subsequently renamed sheet goods in the flooring industry. But for the changing materials' components, it's all the same stuff. A somewhat less expensive means to cover large and high traffic areas. It is easy to clean and...

    My wife has a new job, but it's difficult to say what she does. She sells seashells down by the seashore. Now that I'm older, I am lucky that someone calls me every day. A guy from India is very concerned about the warranty on my Suzuki. A lady called and wanted the serial number for my copy...

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    "Day old bread" My Mom would send me to the bakery to buy day old bread at half the price of fresh bread. I think, now, that the day old bread may have been more than one day old when I bought it, but it was all we could afford.
