    Golden Era Things You've Revived Or Repaired For Use

    I've stored leftovers in glass containers for YEARS. And microwaved the contents therein. I was not aware that this was in any way abnormal...

    Are you ever tired of explaining why you live or dress the way you do?

    I do occasionally fire off compliments to others. But it would have to be something really snappy for me to do so. Whatever they're wearing has to *pop* and stand out for me to say something about it.

    Help me I.D. a piece of music...

    I know, but I will hold out hope. I think it's a nice piece of music. If finding out what it's called isn't possible, would it be possible to rip the audio from that video, and remove the vocal track, leaving just the music?

    Help me I.D. a piece of music...

    Hey folks, I've been trying to find out what a specific piece of music is. It's in this video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TK-ytzR24hU The first song is obviously "Alexander's Ragtime Band". But I would like to know the title of the SECOND song (it starts at 1:08). The guy...

    Young loungers

    Hello WillJames, welcome to the lounge. Have a Feddy. You're in good company. We've got several younger loungers around here, myself included. I'm 25 :) Nice to see another one of us whippersnappers around here to rustle up the old folks. You hold them down, I'll steal their walking-frames.

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    The only phone-booth I remember is outside the local supermarket. To my knowledge, they have almost certainly, all disappeared from the center of town.

    Are you ever tired of explaining why you live or dress the way you do?

    So long as it's a polite inquiry of genuine curiosity, I honestly don't mind what people ask about me. It's when you get the smart-asses that it ticks me off.

    Vintage Desk Help

    They both look pretty interesting, but neither of them looks that incredible. If those were the ONLY desks I could pick...I would chose the second one. If I could pick more desks, I'd keep looking. That second desk looks more sturdy, and as Lizzie says, it's a schoolmistress's desk. It's...

    Waldorf Astoria Doors Removed

    "It's old, who cares?" That's why. People don't give a damn.

    Gentlemen, show us what you've made!

    I love the vest, qirrel! Very snappy.

    What are you wearing today??

    A fascinating outfit! Very colourful and bright. I love the cravat! There is an issue with the glasses, though. Trust me, I wear glasses too. It can be a pain in the ass, but sometimes, us of the Bespectacled Brethren are restricted in our eyewear but what's available in the modern market...

    Our own vintage town

    Yessir! *runs off to find her* Gosh, everytime I come back to this thread, I think about how cool it would be if all this was actually real. It'd be the most COMPLETE living-history museum in the world.

    Our own vintage town

    Does our town have its own "Vintage Times" newspaper? I could be a reporter. I love writing. Perhaps the town newspaper needs a printing-press? I'm sure if we asked nicely, we could borrow John Boy Walton's "Chandler & Price" antique printing-press...

    What are you listening to?

    I'm listening to the theme to "The Shadow", also called Omphale's Spinning Wheel. Haunting, spooky, beautiful and classic. Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men...?

    Anybody Else Collect Sewing Machines?

    Are you looking for a mechanical (handcrank/treadle) or electrical (knee/foot-power) machine? Obviously, mechanical machines have the great benefit that they're easier to look after, and with handcranks, more portable.

    Golden Era Things You've Revived Or Repaired For Use

    I try my best to buy things second-hand, or else buy things that are gonna last forever. Or re-use things for something else once they're done. Most of my clothes are second-hand, among other things I could name.

    Anybody Else Collect Sewing Machines?

    Relax, Yeps :) Vintage Singer sewing machines are a dime a dozen. You'll find another one really soon, trust me.
