What is the Single Most Useful Thing This Place Has Given You?

[BellyTank]

Being able to think of Scott as a friend...
... an over-the Atlantic-Confident.

Carter is having his period, it seems.

Oooh, it's getting Chile in here.

Nope, that would be punctuation not spelling.

All in jest gentlemen. I apologize if I've given offense.

 

[Paisley]

A group of people I can understand. There are many things about modern life whose appeal is hidden from me.

I hope I have given other FLers some encouragement to dance.

A warm, fuzzy feeling, most akin to brushed cotton sheets and jammies on a fresh winter's morning, but sometimes harkening more to a suspicion that one's keyboard isn't earthed properly.....

And meeting people who understood that last bit!

 

[scotrace]

Very nice indeed to see you here, Caledonia.

Bellytank, you just gave me the single best thing about being here. Ditto.

 

[Rosie]

Truthfully, I'd say the people.

#1 Who knew there were so many of you who liked to dress vintage, vintage inspired or just plain dress sharply? Very cool indeed.

#2 Where in all the world would I have met another young Black chick, even though shes on the other side of the country who digs vintage?

#3 Where would I have ever met wonderful, kind, interesting people who actually share an interest in exchanging written letters (though I've been very bad lately and not written ANY letters)

#4 All of guys are great. You've made me laugh, helped me buy phones and appliances, shared your vast amounts of knowledge, and given me the greatest compliments.

You've also made me spend lots of money on stuff. Maybe you all aren't that great after all. lol

 

[Caledonia]

Thank you Scotrace. A pleasure to see you all again too.

Being able to converse with like-minded, funny, intelligent people. I was pretty much a vintage novice when I first joined and I've learned so much from the people here, who have been so generous in sharing their various areas of expertise (which I can then pass off as my own - it's fun telling my male friends a thing or two about suits )

 

[scotrace]

Nivea Cream.

 

[Mojito]

Aside from some lovely friendships and interesting conversations...the courage and skill set to try wearing vintage hosiery. Without that long running thread in the Powder Room, and the patience and stream of practical advice from the ladies who participated in it, I don't think I'd have tried. As it was, I read through it and all my questions were answered without the need for me to ask any new ones. They demystified the process and proved how practical, easy and even economical it is to wear vintage hose.

 

[Burma Schave]

Luxire shirts.

 

[nick123]

I've gained at least a two year college worth's of education pertaining to leather jackets, and with it, much insight into American history and culture.

 

[SGT Rocket]

Courage.

 

[LizzieMaine]

A replacement brake drum for my car. (Thanx to Bro. Powers for that one.)

 

[Two Types]

Mates to go to the pub with who are happy just to talk about clothes.

 

[esteban68]

Information relevant to the cause.

 

[Gregg Axley]

A common bond with others across the globe in movies, music, alcoholic drinks, and cars.

 

[skydog757]

A sense of belonging. That's rare for me. Thank you all for that.

Information on topics that can't be found (or trusted) elsewhere.

Finding one place on the web where people have a sense of manners. I find that very reassuring.
