    Smokers and non smokers, what do you do, what do you think?

    I'm a devout non-smoker, never have-never will, but to me it's all a matter of respect. When a friend who smokes lights up, I don't complain. I just move upwind of them and politely tell them why. Now, most will move downwind before lighting up. It's a mutual respect. :) Ironically, a TV for...

    Thirtysomething woes

    I'm 44, and I've decided to live by the words of George Eliot; "It is never too late to be what you might have been" and a former employer; "Never limit yourself." I spent too many years limiting myself and now I'm nowhere near where I was meant to be, a professional photographer. So, I've...

    Happy Drunk/Mean Drunk

    I've never been drunk, but this thread has me wishing for a Mike's Hard Lemon- or Lime-Ade - get loopy while staving off the kidney stones. Currently, though, my little fridge has only Dr. Pepper in it. I've been tipsy a couple times, though. I become happy and more talkative. . . . Not that...

    Loungers' Pets

    Ahh, there's the little (medium?) furmonster! The sepia tone (and apparent lack of a right ear - a photographic trick, I'm certain) made me think that kitty five was the corner of an understuffed pillow located somewhere between you and the chair. I thought his stripes were wrinkles. Your...

    The fifth one either succumbed to the forces of gravity, or that's a spare ear I see behind the fluffy left cheek of the one in your hand. Lee __________________________ Or is the little bugger under your hat? :D

    Loungers' Pets

    I've never had attitude problems from any cat I've had spayed or neutered. (I get plenty years later. lol) Every cat I've taken in was just happy to be home again. 'Tilla was snuggling up to me the moment I let him out of the cat carrier. Hadley, my "Awwww-That's-Cute-O-Meter" went into...

    Wifebeaters?

    Battle-scars, yes. 3-1/2" X 1" incision-to-remove-fatty-tumor-got-infected-and-now-looks-like-shiny-strawberry-cheescake scars, no. lol Lee

    Heehee! One of his nicknames is Hugo the Mungous. He is a large cat, really, but not huge by any means. There's only twelve pounds of three-and-a-half years of age feline under that thick mat (another nickname, Matt) fur, which makes him look twice as large as he really is. He's our biggest and...

    Wifebeaters?

    No tank you. With or without a dress shirt over it, I've never cared for singlets. I wear a v-neck t-shirt under button-down shirts - the V avoids the dreaded collar visibility and the sleeves protect the shirt. I also prefer sleeved t-shirts because they cover a nasty scar I have just...

    The chill factor.

    Ooh! Keep us posted on this. I'd like to attend the next one! :) Sorry, but I haven't any experiences like these, as I haven't been into vintage long enough. But, I often pick up an antique, such as a camera, and wonder where it's been and what it's seen. Lee

    Well, that certainly makes for an interesting conversation piece. Interesting find! :) How much do those things weigh? Lee _____________________ Collector of the unusual.

    What are you doing.........

    I'm doing something mildly vintage and that I've never done before: I just put Lawrence of Arabia in the DVD player. :D Lee ______________________ I corrently have a black screen with music playing. :)
