    Old Hollywood sprinkled with LSD?

    I think the banning was as simple as, "we don't want future generations sitting around navel gazing instead of working hard and spending hard, and being ready to go to war at a moment's notice if we need them." Add to that, conspiracy theories about the soviets being involved in actively...

    Barbershops - do you tip the owner

    I tip whoever snips, $3 or more. If anyone deserves a tip its your barber! They use razor sharp objects around your face, neck and head with skill, keep you in the chair until you're completely satisfied, all while providing great conversation and an ear to listen to whatever's on your mind...

    Felt hats in summer..

    Rotten Pre-Teens Stole my Hat!!!

    Wonderwoman becomes just another sulky goth teen

    The look seems a bit more of a departure from other tweaks, though. And so dated. She looks like gambit's little sister, not an Amazon. This look might make good WW sidekick, but the main course?

    Do You Own an AMT3000?

    candid film of a South dakota town in 38-39

    Fun how no one can hold their smiles back when they get close. My first reaction was "wow, what happened?" It's pretty different than what one sees today. Alot slimmer, too.
