    do you have many friends?

    Interesting points, Widebrim, I got to thinking about my Father after reading the above. I spent my teens and early twenties trying to be different than my father, then, at some point changed my views (had children) and started trying to be just like DAD. Now it is a great source of pride to be...

    do you have many friends?

    Talk little, listen much! Wise words to live by. People love to talk about the thing that interests them most...Key word there.. "THEM". Encourage others to talk about themselves and you'll make friends fast, and it's not just a mind game, how else will you discover common interests with others.

    Hair cuts

    My hair is very fine so once any water, or any product, is introduced it relaxes and lays straight. If I just use water to comb it into place, as it dries it tightens up into the Shirley Temple ringlets you see there. And never the same way twice!! Thank God for hats!

    Hair cuts

    Not really shellac! It just rhymed with "back"!! In the picture I only had just soaked it down with warm water after the bottom photos. If I'm going out I'll use any ol hair gel to keep her wet and in place. Brylcreme works well enough.

    Driving golden era cars in the modern era

    I'm partial to the Farm truck idea! But at the moment I'm in the middle of another car project so she'll have to wait a bit longer. She gets plenty of attention though, sitting over there, people stop all the time and take pictures. I've even found photos and paintings of her in the county fairs!

    Show us your Guns!

    Thanks Michael, that an interesting bit of information that I didn't know about the Mossberg. To tell the truth..I've never shot the gun. My grandfather passed away three years ago at the age of 94 and the family decided I should have the gun. I never heard how he acquired it but I've a few...

    Felt hat basics

    I'll confess to using my shop compressor and air nozzle to blow away the dust but at 80 psi it could do a lot of harm if misdirected.
