    First Initial, Middle Name

    My father would have had a heck of a time with the new rules, he didn't have a first name. For some reason, my grandparents just gave him a first initial and a middle name which he always used. Of course, when he joined the Navy in WWII, they couldn't deal with a first name that was only an...

    Your local stations

    Magic 63 (KIDD) in Monterey, California! It plays a mix of 40s, 50s, & 60s during the day with special features like Sinatra at 5 (five Frank songs in a row each day at 5pm), Central Coast Swing, Way Back Now, and some Music of Your Life programming. I used to work in the local historical...

    Show us your EASTER Bonnet!

    I have the prettiest mint green floral dress with flutter sleeves that I bought for the Gatsby Summer Afternoon in Oakland a couple of years ago (and then got a case of shyness and didn't go) so that will be my Easter dress this year. It would look perfect with my favorite little pink cloche...

    How old is everyone?

    Don't worry, they say 50 is the new 30 and I'm going to hold "them" to that in 5 years! My sister, who is 20 years older than I am, refused to age past 39 for ever and ever and only recently has moved herself somewhere in her 40's. She hates the fact that I keep catching up to her imaginary...

    Bonnie Jean - your hairstyle is exactly what I've been trying to do for a while now, with not nearly your level of success! I want to get Hot Sticks but I find 2 different manufacturers - Conair(on Ebay) or BaByliss (on Amazon). Which set are y'all using? I'm thinking probably Conair? I've...

    the Brooch and the Pin

    Tragically unhip one raising my hand here. ;) I love brooches and almost always wear one when I dress for work. I get a lot of comments and I love wearing something that nobody else is. I have more of a novelty collection rather than vintage but vintage is my next step.

    To wax or not to wax ????

    From "Hair Removal Through the Ages" (same website mentioned above) "Another primitive method of hair removal, actually used by women as late as the 1940s, involved rubbing off the hair by rubbing skin with abrasive mitts or discs the consistency of fine sandpaper." My mother, who was a...

    Strange questions about your town

    Having recently worked for several years in Carmel, California the number one question we get is "isn't Clint Eastwood the mayor there?" They always seem so surprised to hear he hasn't been the mayor for almost 20 years now. lol

    Mineral Make-UP

    Yes, I definitely had that problem when I used Bare Minerals and I eventually found it to be much too drying. I've been using Aromaleigh for the past week and haven't had the sensitivity problems. Supposedly there's a specific ingredient in some mineral makeup that can irritate sensitive skin.

    L'Oreal Limited Edition Vintage Colors

    No, not too late. I went to my Walgreens just yesterday and found the Scarlett display. It was about 2/3 full and I was able to pick up the eye liner and a "Buttoned Up Red" lipstick.....will probably be going back today to snag some of the eye shadow. Jonni
