    In The Photobooth

    I haven't been to the site yet, but will go soon. That said, I've been noticing the differences between now and then for a long time. I've often looked someone's face and wondered how they would look in, say, an old black and white movie or advertisement. Sometimes, I can visualize them back...

    Los Angeles and Orange County areas: Free Portrait of YOU in Vintage!

    Thank you for bringing this to my attention, Snookie, that's a very good question, and one I should have thought about. What's truly mystifying is that I could take a professional camera pretty much anywhere (outdoors), set it on a tripod and shoot the scenery until my heart overflows with the...

    Loungers' Pets

    I saw that Kitty (Foyle?) was her name and thought about my foreman at work: he has a cat named Mouse. She was so named, because when he and his wife found her, she was the size and color of a gray mouse. Lee

    Show us your vehicles

    You have a beautiful Packard, Twitch. That body style is one of my favorites. Before I joined the lounge, I'd see one in West Covina, waiting for a buyer. It was in primer, needed new chrome and interior, and had a couple cracked windows, but it still had the swan on the hood and it seemed...

    Los Angeles and Orange County areas: Free Portrait of YOU in Vintage!

    Paddy. That's a fantastic idea and I'd love to! Believe me, I've thought of that. But, alas, I'm not attending this year. :( I also don't have nearly the equipment I'll need to set up a photo booth. Although, hopefully, I'll be ready and able next year. :) Not enough words, Mr. Lucky. lol...

    Serious Comedians

    Dan Akroyd. Although he started in SNL, occasionally teaming with Steve Martin, I thought he was great in Driving Miss Daisy. When a dramatic movie includes humor, I think it makes the movie better. Life is never 100% serious - humor crops up everywhere in life. Lee...

    Show Us Your Handwriting - Vintage Penmanship!

    You've reminded me of a lovely lady I once knew, DB. She and I used to joke back and forth about right- and left-handedness. She's left-handed and I'm right, and one time said the same thing to me. I told her, "Yeah, but only creatively." She also told me, "Lefties have rights, you know." I...

    Show Us Your Handwriting - Vintage Penmanship!

    I once met a woman who worked in the returns department at a home center, and she could do this. I saw something she'd written above her station and asked about it. She asked my full name and then wrote it out. Every letter was absolutely legible, and her handwriting was smooth and flawless. I...

    Loungers' Pets

    You might try a childproof (catproof?) doorknob cover. I have a routine with 'Tilla. When he wants to leave he sits by the door until I say, "Open the door, 'Tilla! Open the door." When he's decided I've made a fool of myself long enough, he reaches for the knob. He knows what the knob is...

    Show us your Thrift and/or yard sale finds

    This is such a great thread. I love seeing all these beautiful vintage artifacts. :) If you go back to page 22, Carter, you can look at them again right now. lol Actually, yes, we will soon see pictures taken with it. And I have an idea that's been rattling around my tiny brain all...

    MST3K

    Oh gee! Look at what the Lounge does to me! Now I have to start a new DVD collection! lol I used to watch MST3K every chance I got. I prefered Joel, but Mike grew on me, and I still liked the show. It's been a while and there were so many shows, that I don't think I could name a favorite...
