    Brings back memories of this thread: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=11209 lol

    Does vintage make you look.... *older*?

    I think a 50s look often makes women and girls look older. Maybe short 50s hairdos remind me of the menopausal helmet.

    Puffy eyes!

    I use DHC's eye bright. The caffeine helps reduce puffiness, without the messiness of a tea bag. http://www.dhccare.com/DHC/SearchResults.aspx?Keywords=eye+bright

    What goodies are on sale!?

    I bought one of their pencil skirts a few months ago. It's great--it fits me just right and even has zippered pockets. I also got a cute bracelet and an exercise top. Their prices are right, too.

    Help me accessorize this Outfit!

    1. Shorten. 2. Leftover belt. 3. Either. If you go with the lucite, maybe a gold purse would go with it. 4. Yes on the necklace. 5. I like the hat idea. Maybe a natural color straw would help keep the outfit from being too white.

    Are you feeling the economic crunch?

    It's the Peter Principle: people promoted to their level of incompetence. My employer (a CPA firm) has been doing a few things to help us through the recession. We've begun to charge 10% for late payments (we used to write it off, I think) and we've terminated some clients who are losing...

    Are you feeling the economic crunch?

    I guess the brass has never heard the saying about free milk and cows.

    Are you feeling the economic crunch?

    Maybe he and some of the other mechanics in your area could charge for a diagnostic service, and waive it if the customer gets the repairs done at the shop.

    Are you feeling the economic crunch?

    Through luck and skill, I've avoided the pain. Before I joined the accounting field almost eight years ago, I was in engineering and was almost always in an financial bind. Our vice president of wealth advisors said some months ago that the stock market was beginning to pick up, and that...

    Want to have Fred & Ginger live in your house?

    This reminds me of Alan Alda's autobiography, Never Have your Dog Stuffed.

    Classic Clothes and Accessories Made to Last

    Ladies, how often have you bought clothes that look shabby after a few months? Or purses that stop zipping within a year? And shoes--shoes are the worst. Lately, I've been buying clothes from companies that mostly make men's clothes: the quality is better and the style is more traditional...

    Senator Jack's brush with greatness

    They were furriers in Denver. Their shop still has a distinctive sign on Broadway: http://www.futuregringo.com/2009June/jonasbrothersfurs.JPG There's a musical group by the same name as well.

    H.L. Mencken

    And not unlike his hero Nietzsche: It seems to me that to take a book of mine into his hands is one of the rarest distinctions that anyone can confer upon himself. I even assume that he removes his shoes when he does so--not to speak of boots.

    The fall of the phone

    :eek: There are enough forest fires blazing. It's insects and berries for me and mine. :p For my part, I might not care to have the latest thing, but I don't care if others use it(responsibly).

    The fall of the phone

    There are a few ways of skipping to the beep: Step One: Push 1. If your friend is on Sprint (or possibly Verizon, but not always), this skips the greeting and you are done, skip to End. IF you hear a message that says “One is not a valid option” skip to Step Three below, otherwise continue...

    The fall of the phone

    That's why I just don't get texting--it takes about 10 seconds to leave a typical voice mail. The only advantage I see to texting is not being overheard. Or not having to talk to the person you're texting.

    I lost my hat to the summer wind....

    My hat blew away in an icy urban gale. I could only watch.
