    Forget the Moonbeams...

    ...this site has the coolest clock ever. They have one for women, as well, that says "Madam" instead of "Sir". Fantastic.

    Any "new" old radios out there in Fedoraville?

    I finally got the camera thing in line, so here's a few shots of my favorite thing:

    Vintage Phones

    Wow- how bad is it that it took me three months to see this? I would love to see some of your work! I'm always looking for unique things to hang around the joint...

    Show us Vintage Connoisseur Items!

    I was visiting my favorite Antique store the other day and this guy was in the front window. I had no idea what he was, and the man in the place told me he was an old liquor decanter. I loved him at first sight, and here's the best part- when you pick him up, he plays "How Dry I Am". Awesome.

    Okay, so it only took a month and a half, but here are the pictures: The dresser: The high dresser: The cedar drawer in the high dresser: The Vanity: The drawer pulls: Thanks for the mojo!

    The future is now!

    Wow... I'm trapped between "I'd never be caught dead in that thing" and "Wow! That's actually a pretty good idea!" It would certainly help with the torrential rains we've been having here...

    "Mad Men" on AMC (US) - (Spoilers Within)

    I picked up Season One at work today; some of the best DVD packaging I have ever seen.

    Moonbeam 1950's Repro Clocks – Check your Big Lots!

    Aha! Me too! I thought it was just that I had no idea what I was doing. Which, of course, may still be the case...lol However, when I got mine, it had a yellow band around the wrapping with a glaring warning to make sure you only turn the setting dials the way they're supposed to be turned...

    Dr. Who's Suit

    Seriously, I would KILL to have a woman's version of that... Don't think that i could rock the trainers with it, though...

    Barbigirl - Injured In Auto Accident (Update: & On The Mend!)

    How awful! I'll keep her in my prayers until she's recovered. Best of luck!

    Moonbeam 1950's Repro Clocks – Check your Big Lots!

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure they have a pretty primitive system of inventorying stock in that joint; I don't think that they can look it up in any sort of central computer system or anything. Which leads me to wonder how they know if they're getting ripped off...

    Classic Style #5

    Ah yes, this happens quite a bit. It's the buyers- they tell you no more, and then it shows up. Our buyer told us it was a no-go, so when it showed up at my boyfriend's store last night, he picked it up. When I got back from lunch this afternoon, I got a note that it had come in. Newsstand is a...

    Moonbeam 1950's Repro Clocks – Check your Big Lots!

    Finally found them! Took forever, though. I actually got them at a Biglots that I had called earlier- they told me that they didn't have them! No Twilights here either, though...

    Frankie Manning!

    You know, he makes getting older a lot less scary to me. If I could have that kind of spirit when I get to be that age, I look forward to it. Hope he's back on his feet soon.

    Thank you! I've never seen it before. Definitely not in Jersey...

    Duckpin Bowling

    Since I can be outbowled by most six-year olds, I've no idea what "duckpin" means. Please enlighten.

    AFI's latest top ten list - classic genres

    I'm glad to see Roman Holiday on there; I do wonder though why Dalton Trumbo isn't mentioned in the credits.

    Swing shoes??

    Okay, so I was in Marshall's today, and a mother and her daughter were looking at shoes. The daughter points out a pair of 4-inch spectator pumps, complete with ankle strap, and says, "Mom- there's the shoes that you call "Dominatrix Shoes". Her mom laughs, and the daughter continues that "she...

    Cyd Charisse Passes

    Oh no... it seems like we're seeing too many of these all of the sudden. I remember as a little girl, my mom would watch Brigadoon endlessly, and she always fascinated me to no end. She remained such a classy lady right to the end. She'll be missed.
