Forgive me for asking this, but does this mean you're a loan shark, a juiceman, or both;) ?- Caroline

View-Master
I had one as I kid and adored it. I think they're wonderful for a child's imagination. I gazed at the images as much as I flipped through my well loved Ezra Jack Keats books. There is something about images, without the pressure of reading or the chatter of sound, that really allows a kid's...- Caroline

Keeping the Home 'still alive
I remember our chemistry teacher in high school taught us how to make something called "balloon wine" but I never got around to it. If I knew anyone with experience making their own wine or misc. hooch I might try it, but for now I'm only crazy enough to make my own yogurt.- Caroline

Gardens vegetable, flower or other?
Lets hope there's no frost! The wind has been a problem for me. We bought our traditional mother's day plants - this year we have poblano peppers, another chili, 3 tomato plants (1 heirloom yellow)but I didn't dare plant them as the wind was so strong. The thyme I planted in a planter no...- Caroline

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
Touchez pas au grisbi I just adore this movie and have seen it a dozen times at least, but I can't stop watching it. Lovely clothes, to die for apartments, great cars, and wonderful looking, pre-plastic men and women. I love these French actors who are given the space to act with their...- Caroline

Battle of the States
OK, since Massachusetts is a pretty old state, I only selected the persons that I'm fond of personally. I'm sure KittyT and the others can add to it... Dr. Seuss Theodore Geisel author, illustrator, Springfield James McNeill Whistler painter, Lowell James Russell Lowell poet, Cambridge...- Caroline

Discussion: Book Swap?
I have books I want to give away, but I don't want any more books for fear of structural collapse on the part of my 1910 home! Can I still participate, ala "free to loving home" style?- Caroline

What Are You Reading
I read this too and enjoyed it. His other ones were not so great, IMHO. I don't know about the new book he's written about his father. It appears it's stirring up the surviving family members though. The mom claims to be working on a memoir - THAT should be interesting. I'm just finishing...- Caroline

The ones that got away
OMG I won that, and I never ever win! If it doesn't work out for me (and my middle age waistline) I'll let you know. I think the seller was very happy to know someone would care for it & wear it. I find a lot of nice things searching the sets catagory, and "boucle" as a key word search. I...- Caroline

iPhone, with rotary dialer
Yeah, and I wonder if you have to "stay on the line" due to your rotary status. Tempting, to be sure. Now only if I knew why I need one....- Caroline

What Was The Last Movie You Watched?
I saw this too, on TV. About 75% of it anyway. I really liked the Donald Sutherland/ Rev. Dupas character! I'll have to see the whole thing, and read the book too! The last one I watched was "Black Widow" and, even though I wouldn't call it "film noir" as the box did, I did enjoy it...- Caroline

Please critique this blazer on me!
Love the color! Let me just start by saying that I'm very partial to this shade! It seems to work with your coloring. I agree that in the front view photo, while not bad, isn't doing a whole lot for you, but you may just need a different shade of pants/skirt. The side and back are fine...- Caroline

Cellulite - the dreaded.
I have to agree, I'm afraid. I think the only thing that helps is building up the muscle underneath. When I did a lot of gym time in my 20's, this helped, but did not eliminate it, especially on the *ahem* more fleshy areas of the body. I think it's all a matter of how delicate and thin your... -
