    Fixing my old phone

    Have you tried hitting it? Maybe if you take it apart and poke at it that'll help. Sorry. I know nothing, but that's what I would do. Then I'd take it to those guys at Batteries Plus who are apparently amateur electrical engineers. They fix all kinds of stuff and sometimes they don't...

    Stockings: What do you do with them after they're ruined?

    I use them to wax my skis. The nylon polishes the wax fabulously.

    Cleavage

    That's a good point. I was thinking of my bras designed from 1940s patterns and they're SOOO full coverage. They don't make cleavage; they separate. But I can only wear those with my 40s designed tops because all of my modern twinsets are too low-cut. Even shirtdresses stop the buttons just...

    College Football!

    My new pet hate in the city

    It tees me off when someone comes into the store chatting away on their cell phones, discouraging any salutations/assistance. Then, when they get to the register and they're asked if they've been helped by anyone, they respond flatly, "No." To our managers it comes off looking like the sales...

    hair extensions

    Like others have noted, it is normal. However, hair loss is also a symptom of any number of maladies including thyroid troubles. If you think your hair loss has increased suddenly, see a doctor. If it's always been that way, join the club.

    What Did You Want To Be When You Grew Up?

    After being told I could become anything I wanted to be, I announced that I wanted to be... ...a turtle. I have no idea why. Little kids don't use logic...I've not grown out of that. You see, Phobic, reptiles are a very common thing to want to be. :)

    Your Philosopher of Choice is ...

    Hmmm...does Charles Darwin count? Perhaps the more modern version Jared Diamond of Guns, Germs, and Steel. It changed my philosophy, anyway. Mark Twian had quite a few interesting observations on life and humanity as well. I like rairerrescue's Teddy Roosevelt too...and maybe add John Muir...

    hair extensions

    It was real. As a result...it kinda itches. And you brought up an important point...it didn't make the rest of my hair any easier to manage.

    Long Lashes

    I'm curious to know how many of you wear fake eyelashes, and for what occasions... I used to know gals in the Bay area who wore them every day, but they both used the little clumps of just a few hairs that get glued on one at a time. Sounds tedious. Any preferences/personal accounts?

    I would like to ask a favor of the ladies

    It might be nice to categorize the items by decade. You were very careful to approximate the decades on each item, but I didn't find a way to weed out the 60s and later. Oh...and maybe a "Viewing page 1 of 9,862" so I know when I should quit hitting "Next" and search by category. Still...I...

    hair extensions

    I've had extensions added professionally before, and they sewed them in and dropped a touch of glue to the connection to strengthen it. They aren't all that fun to sleep on, especially when they're new. They have little knots that dig into your scalp when you lie on them, and they pull your...

    KOTEX PAD IN A HAIRNET?

    Are you kidding??? They're ULTRA-absorbant!
