    How to Dress 40's - WikiHow

    While googling at work today (I know, I know, shameless of me, but hey, it's Friday afternoon!), I found this great article that might be of use to those of us trying to start dressing in the vintage look, especially the 1940s. http://www.wikihow.com/Dress-in-the-American-1940's-Fashion...

    Songs that Won the War Series

    I just found this series on Amazon.com - don't know why I haven't run across it before, but it looks like there's about 10 different albums of WW2 music. Do any of you have the complete series or a few of the albums? I'd like to buy a few - heck, the whole set if I had the money! - and wanted to...

    Christmas Food Traditions!

    Every Christmas Eve, we gather at my grandmother's house for butterball soup, chicken, homemade bread, and cherry cheesecake. Then we open presents. And on Christmas Day we always, without fail, have homemade raviolis. Sadly, I won't be traveling home this year and so we'll be making the...

    66th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor

    Hard to believe it's been 66 years since the beginning of America's involvement in World War II. I went to a gathering of my hometown World War II veterans. The express purpose was to record, on video and on paper, their stories for the local VFW. We had a Pearl Harbor veteran there and I...

    Even in Nebraska

    Sometimes you think that you're insulated living in the middle of the U.S. - but not so. There was a shooting in a mall today in Omaha. News is still developing and they still don't have the shooter yet (that I know of). At least five people are down - don't know the status of their...

    Classic Films About Advertising

    Ok, I did a search and didn't find a thread similar to this, so I hope I'm posting a "fresh" topic. :) My brain has so far been unable to come up with any classic movies where the characters are involved in advertising, except for Laura with Dana Andrews. My novel takes place in the New...

    Do you read WW2-set fiction?

    Hi all - Question for you. I've been shopping my WW2-set novel around to agents and publishing houses and while I've had a few bites for "partials" (i.e. the first three chapters and a synopsis), I've only had one agent request the full. This is par for the writing course, I know. But this...

    Short Animation Feature

    I guess this post could also go in the Observation Lounge... I really got a kick out of this short animation film. It's called Animator vs. Animation II. Very clever. Animator vs. Animation II

    Best Internet Radio?

    Through my Windows Media, I found a great site called Got RadioThey have a Big Band station that has a mixture of the new swing (Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, etc) and the old classics. I'm really enjoying it. I've listened to Sirius - the Sinatra channel is good, but doesn't have a lot of the Big...

    Need Help with Dress - New at this!

    Hi ladies - I found this dress at Coldwater Creek and I love the retro-feel. I'm fairly new at my company and we're having a holiday party at the end of November, and I thought this dress would be perfect. I'm wondering what types of undergarments I would need to cover up my "wobbly...
