    You know you are getting old when:

    Used to be when I went to the dentist, it was Mitch's dad (Mitch was in my class.) Now my dentist is my classmate and he's "Doctor Mitch."

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Not gone, but I think it's really heading that way: terrestrial radio. I LOVE listening to the radio and in my area, we used to have some fair options. Back in the 1990s-2000s, (being a Country Music fan) there was a station that played Top 40 Country, another that played Top 40 Country with...

    Vintage cars, golden era photo shoots

    My Great-Great Grandfather had a pair of Pierce Arrows in the 20s/30s. I will have to check with my Grandma, but I believe she has photos of them.

    You know you are getting old when:

    My wife is older than me, so that doesn't help! LOL I fear the day I lose one of my parents. I hope it's many decades in the future. I'm fortunate enough to say that both my grandmothers are still living.

    You Know you have been on Fedora Lounge too long when:

    I would be curious to know why, as well. I hope everyone who has moved on is living their best lives!

    You Know you have been on Fedora Lounge too long when:

    When you recognize all the loungers that posted in this thread in 2006 and many haven't logged in since 5-10 years ago!

    You know you are getting old when:

    I've been "feeling my age" a lot lately. Finding I can't do the things I used to do with as much ease as I used to do them. Some things, I just flat out can't do anymore. Gray hairs are popping up on my head and on my face. I've always been known as the "young guy" in my business, in my hobbies...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I have this problem and even moreso with Sunglasses. I have light eyes and I'm very sensitive to bright light, so I wear sunglasses even in the winter. Being a creature of habit, I found a pair I like on Amazon and I buy them in bulk every time they're on sale. I bought 5 or 6 pair back in...

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    I've noticed this as well. My general every day attire is what the Gen Z's are calling "Country Paw Paw" I own a repair business, so "work clothes" are standard. Mine are generally a pearl snap western shirt, wrangler jeans, and western work boots. This style has come back into fashion and my...

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    I miss the days of the FL Chat Room - I was shocked to see how quiet this thread is. I feel like Reddit has its purpose, but I don't spend a ton of time on there. Mostly, if I have a specific question. I tried Twitter when it was the hot new thing and felt the same way. Very limited format...

    Who is the most famous person you have met?

    I would have liked to have met Ross Perot. I would imagine that would be a very interesting encounter!

    Who is the most famous person you have met?

    I haven't met a ton of famous people and I guess that scope could be narrower by what you feel constitutes fame: Politicians: Jon Plumer Joan Ballweg Mark Pocan Fred Clark Glenn Grothman Singers: Clint Black All the current members of Exile (they're all very nice by the way) Janie Frickie T...

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    This is a change that I do not care for myself. I own a business and it's frustrating to me when I have employees and customers that try to reach me through Facebook messenger, texting, e-mail, messages through my invoicing system, my personal accounts, etc. I feel a lot of time is wasted just...

    Show us your vintage home!

    Thanks so much! I have a million and one projects around here (as it is with old houses) but I truly love this old place!

    I can't remember if I shared this one with you folks, but this is my daily in the non-salt months.

    Show us your vintage home!

    Here is our vintage home. My wife was born and raised here and we purchased it from her parents when we married in 2018. From what I've been able to pinpoint, the house was built between 1890 and 1909. The house retains most of its original features (woodwork, hardwood floors, leaded glass...

    Just Stopping By to Say Hi!

    It's always a good feeling to know that a guy hasn't worn out his welcome!
