Beware of Manholes!
I once pulled a blind woman out of a storm drain in a similar situation. I ran across a busy intersection because she had partially fallen out into traffic and I thought she was going to get hit by a car. It's amazing how much you can lift when your adrenaline starts pumping. I had seen her...- BeBopBaby

Well, it's over.
Locktowndog, please take this all with a grain of salt. It's hard for me to know exactly what the situation is or what you are going through, but I hope you will at least consider what I'm typing. It sounds to me like she is abusing your good nature. I get the impression that she thinks...- BeBopBaby

What is your expertise?
Fruit or mint? Fruit please. You have to meet my husband - he is a master of the Pee Wee voice as well as Don Knotts. lol As for myself, I feel like a jack of all trades, master of none. I can shake my junk like the lady in the Amp'd Mobile bus commercial, does that count? lol- BeBopBaby

The myth!
Something to keep in mind... I think that vintage men's clothing is harder to find in general because men tend to buy a suit and keep it until it's worn out. Also mens' fashion never changed as drastically from decade to decade as womens fashion did (and continues to do so). I think less...- BeBopBaby

What is this????
The first thing I thought of when I saw that table was Kentuck Knob. It's a Frank Lloyd Wright house where everything is set up on a hexagonal grid. The shape of the table-top reminded me of the shapes that are repeated all through the house.- BeBopBaby

The myth!
Not really, people in colonial times had much less personal space and no real privacy then. They also owned fewer pieces of furniture that often had to do double duty as something else because of limited space. When large families share small spaces, furniture is going to be much smaller.- BeBopBaby

The myth!
Forgotten Man, I've always had the same exact theory about vintage clothing. And tall/large people did exist. :) Here is a picture of my great grandfather (middle row, 4th from the left). He was very tall, over 6 feet. He always towers over people in pictures and look at how big...- BeBopBaby

What is this????
I agree - Arts & Crafts/mission from the early part of the 20th century (pre-1930s). The style of the legs is a dead giveaway. That style of table doesn't have a specific purpose, they're just wallhugging space savers to put what you choose on. I have one in the landing of my stairway that I...- BeBopBaby

Vintage bathroom
Some vintage hand towels would also look nice hanging up. You can still find vintage shower curtains on places like eBay even. Perhaps some cute curtains made from vintage/repro fabric. I also use vintage planters/bowls/vases to put things in. On one counter, I have a vintage McCoy bamboo...- BeBopBaby

Loungers' Pets
Poodle's are great dogs in the repect that they don't have any health problems inherrent to their breed and they live long lives, hence the recent trend to breed poodles with other breeds. We had a poodle mutt puppy from the shelter who lived to be 18 years old! We got him when I was 5 and he...- BeBopBaby

Halloween Costumes
On Crafster, someone had made full-sized yep-yeps costumes (you know, the aliens from Sesame Street). They were fantastic! I might have to *borrow* that idea. ;)- BeBopBaby

Do You Still Use "Golden Age" Products?
Jello really took off during the Depression because it was such an inexpensive dessert. They also were popular because they did a lot of cookbook giveaways at the supermarket during this time. I have quite a few Depression-era Jello cookbooks. I collect them because some of the recipes are so...- BeBopBaby
