    Greetings!

    Yup, those are the ones! Haven't had much of a chance to scout out Retro Radar, but I see I'll have to check it out soon!

    Greetings!

    Welcome Miss Queenie! I recently discovered the J. Peterman website and love all the unique things they have on there. I really liked the Newport dress and the 50's floral dress, but I have to agree with Miss Tayva, I wish they showed actual photos instead of sketches. It would give me a...

    Price of GAS $$$$

    Where I grew up, in central MO, has great water, never needed a pitcher. We're building a house and will have a well - the water tastes great straight from the tap! It must be something about this area that just overchlorinates it.

    Period-correct PAINT!

    Those paint selections and those web sites are giving me great ideas for the house we're building. After years of living in apartments with white walls, white trim, white everything, I'm soooo looking forward to using COLORS in our home!!!

    Price of GAS $$$$

    The water where we live has a definite chlorine smell to it. We bought a filter pitcher shortly after we moved here. The water on the base is so nasty that nearly everyone buys bottled or uses filters. The only place the water tasted halfway decent was at the hospital. My husband used to...

    Home Depot Installation scam

    I'd be willing to watch the super bowl to see your tank ad! What kind of tank? One of the current M1A2s or something classic....like a M4 Sherman?

    Joseph Cotten - Unsung Movie Great

    I saw two of his other movies, Since You Went Away (a great homefront during WWII flick also starring Claudette Colbert) and Portrait of Jennie. He really is an unsung great actor! Another story - I believe I have it correct, if not please let me know - is how he took on Hedda Hopper. She...

    Retro with a twist

    My husband has a whole Demotivational Slide Show of those that he keeps on his computer at work. They are so funny and so true sometimes!

    Home Depot Installation scam

    My husband and I are building and house back in Missouri and plan to use as many reliable local sources for materials and labor as possible. However, we are currently in Kentucky - so to get estimates for our construction loan, I've been going to our local Lowe's for help. They have been...

    Retro with a twist

    I ran across this website and laughed the whole time I was looking at it. Graphic artist Anne Taintor uses magazine images from the 50's (some may be earlier images) and turns them into magnets, notepads, cards and coasters. The pictures themselves are great, but what's so funny is the wicked...

    Terri Schiavo

    Medical developments have increased phenomenally in the last century - think of all the things that used to commonly kill people but are now eradicated by immunizations or treatments. Progress is great, but it's also changed the aspects of life and death - there's a gray area in what was once...

    Excellent Book

    Was Josh ever featured on a show called "The Incurable Collector"? I caught an episode one time and there was a guy on there who was an avid collector of 40's memorabilia - had outfits, cars, furnishings, money, etc. His collection was incredible. I don't remember the guy's name, but it...

    Vintage clothes - where do I find them?

    Hey all! I'm new to the forum, though I've followed by reading for awhile. It's awesome that there are so many people who also love this fabulous era! As someone who has lusted for Myrna Loy's entire wardrobe in The Thin Man movies, I would love to find some vintage clothes. The trouble...
