    A Lot o' Mottos: What are your words to live by?

    "With great power comes great responsibility." Who am I? You sure you want to know? The story of my life is not for the faint of heart. If somebody said it was a happy little tale... if somebody told you I was just your average ordinary guy, not a care in the world... somebody lied.

    What Are Your Favorite VINTAGE Song Lyrics?

    Tenderly (The words of Jack Lawrence say it all!) The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly. The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly. Then you and I came wandering by, and lost in a sigh were we. The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly. I can't forget how two...

    R.I.P. Charles Nelson Reilly

    All the old-timers are going. Very sad. He was an "original"!! I hate to admit it but I actually enjoyed "Lidsville"!! Charles Nelson Reilly as "Hoo Doo" and Billie Hayes as "the Genie" were so baad!! They were soo funny!! Butch Patrick (Eddie Munster) was the kid Mark. Lidsville was...

    Foods I can't find in my present location and regional specialties.

    As a former NYer living in CT, I can say I am amazed at the lack of food variety available in my quaint village!! Edy's Ice Cream is Dreyer's in the SouthWest, right? I used to think that the Dryer's brand was related to the NorthEast "Breyer's brand" of ice cream. That's not the...

    Acceptable?

    I have a similiar heringbone tweed sports jacket. Never thought of wearing it with such a shirt collar. It gives the jacket a very 30's retro-look. Is the tie "vintage"?

    Tunes For The Weekend - May 24th

    Salv, Since you mentioned Mathis a few posts ago, I've been sampling some of his earlier Columbia LP's..... "Open Fire, Two Guitars" is a very unique recording. On this 1959 LP, Mathis dispenses with his usual orchestral accompaniment. Al Caiola and Tony Mattola play the two guitars...

    MATCH!! I taped off the radio. I started when I was eight. I have a huge collection of Top 40 Radio Hits on cassette from 1982-2002. Casy Kasem's Countdown was my favorite Top 40 Radio Show. My favorite Top 40 Radio Station was and still is Z-100. WPLJ comes in a close second. I also...

    A Lot o' Mottos: What are your words to live by?

    Too many people overvalue what they are not, and undervalue what they are. Tough and funny and a little bit kind, that is as near to perfection as I can be.

    What's wrong with this picture? http://thefedoralounge.com/showpost.php?p=328419&postcount=34 I never saw this gal again after showing up for our date wearing baggy jeans and a polo shirt!! Needless to say it was an expensive date. The buggy ride around the park was $40 bucks for twenty...

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY Duke

    My all-time favorite John Wayne movie has to be "The Quiet Man", a classic directed by the legendary John Ford. What's not to like about this picture? 1)Maureen O'Hara in Technicolor is surely any Irishman's dream, and "The Quiet Man" would be timeless for that alone. 2)Wayne's...

    Paris

    Paris is a place as perfect as they come to meet your lifetime someone!! The question is: where do you start? I will start with an obvious spot: the sidewalk cafe. In my list of fave areas, Place de la Contrescarpe ranks high. It is located in the 5th district, atop the quaint Rue...

    Pink shirts...

    The pink/black as well as the turquoise/black combo was also big in 50's bowling shirts!! My father's cousin Tina had a pink Cadillac. Man, that was 50's ultra cool!!

    Pink shirts...

    In the movie Grease, John Travolta wore a pink shirt with a black sports jacket. I have to say that shirt was a bit "too pink"! He also wore pink socks. Yikes!! I own a pink dress shirt. But it's much paler, almost white!! I've worn "A White Sport Coat & A Pink Carnation"!! A white...

    Tunes For The Weekend - May 24th

    'Stop, Look Listen' is one of Creed & Bell's best tunes. The Mathis version is just that.... very "Mathis"...lush and romantic. I also have the Marvin Gaye & Diana Ross duet of that song, from their '73 album "Diana & Marvin". Their voices blend well together and their album is classic smooth...
