Thinking about a tattoo, but is it what good girls did in the 1940's?
No nice girl in 1940 would have even used the word "escort" as a noun. ;)- Paisley

I like Badger Balm cuticle care, but their lip balm didn't do anything for my cracked and bleeding lips. Had to go back to Carmex today--they already feel better. As far as the petroleum products go, I use a laundry detergent that doesn't contain them. I don't buy zip-loc bags, either. I get...- Paisley

Have you tried refrigerating the water? My grandparents from southwestern Missouri had tap water that smelled and tasted like rotten eggs, but when it was cold, it tasted fine.- Paisley

I've xeriscaped my whole yard. No, it's not covered with rocks, but with plants that don't need as much water as a traditional lawn. The buffalo grass lawn in the back yard needs mowed only once a year. I live in a small house. I take the bus to work. I usually buy things that will last...- Paisley

Thinking about a tattoo, but is it what good girls did in the 1940's?
If you decide to get one, it would be better to get it where your clothes will cover it up. A lot of employers won't hire someone with visible tattoos. I agree with you, Miss 1940's, that a tattoo doesn't exactly say "vintage glamour gal." But with everyone and their mother getting a tattoo...- Paisley

A peek inside the seduction community.
Let me tell you about my best guy friend, one of the most popular guys I've ever met. He has a full social calendar and sometimes girls young enough to be his granddaughter want to date him, although he doesn't want to have a romantic relationship with anyone. No, he's not independently wealthy...- Paisley

A peek inside the seduction community.
Fourthly, unless the "unattractive" woman is desperate for attention, she's going to know you're not really interested in her. In a small community, word of that kind of thing gets around. I think it's better for everyone involved for a guy to look for a woman who gives him a warm, fuzzy...- Paisley

A peek inside the seduction community.
I like to get to know somebody pretty well before I start seeing them socially. (I won't even write a letter of recommendation for someone I've known less than a year.) A womanizer isn't going to stick around for someone who wants to cultivate a friendship first.- Paisley

What Works and Doesn't Work on Me ...as far as men wanting to meet me. I haven't dated in a long time, but some men have made a good try and a good impression. :) Confidence. The guys who make the best impression on me just come up and ask me for a dance or say "Hello, I'm Joe."...- Paisley

Warm mayonnaise + twisting ride = bad date. :eusa_doh: This wasn't a date, but a former coworker of mine was giving blood, and then threw up and passed out in front of a good-looking girl.- Paisley

PBS Masterpiece Theatre - The Complete Jane Austen
I saw it last night and really enjoyed it. Anne's married sister seemed more off her rocker than I remembered her in the book, though. Anne's father's constant primping was pretty funny.- Paisley

Benny Goodman at Carnegie Hall (1938)
Here's an article from the Wall Street Journal about Benny Goodman's 1938 performance at Carnegie Hall. An excerpt: The number ["Sing Sing Sing"] began with a vengeance, as Krupa beat a tattoo beneath the snarling brass and strutting reeds. Riff patterns unfolded smoothly, and then... -

I had a dance partner whom I didn't date, didn't call, didn't flirt with, didn't touch except while dancing, and he said he loved me. Then he tried to look up my skirt. Ewww!- Paisley

I don't think he's wealthy. Just smart about science, good looking and a great dancer. My best friend, who is always attracted to weiners, said, "I can see why you like him." Bad sign. I should make a list of etiquette gaffes you can get away with if someone is a total fool for you.- Paisley

Nutrition and exercise!
Body for Life by Bill Phillips. I've been on it since 2003 (not so much last year due to an illness and injury). You eat six small meals a day and work out six times per week--three 20-minute aerobic workouts and three weight training workouts. You can do them at home. You have one free day...
