I was thinking about the various comments this afternoon, and muddled though my head may be, I wondered about the military. While I personally would love to go back in time to join the WAVES, I understand why women were eventually permitted to serve in a fully integrated military body. I also...
I remember this being discussed a few years back but not from the particular angle I am wondering about. I've become, shall we say obsessed, with the St. Grottlesex/Ivy League atmosphere of years gone by. I have bought some forty-odd yearbooks over the past year and a half, mostly focusing on...
It's been awhile but I suppose I might just as well dive right back in.
Lt. Roland (Ronald?) Spiers isn't a fictional character, he's actually a real man, but I've never quite gotten over his portrayal in the "Band of Brothers" miniseries. I'm arrested every time he comes on screen. Tall and...
I don't know that this counts, but I've been off the site for various reasons (mostly work) for over a year and a half (or more), except occasionally stopping by to lurk about the edges. I have indeed thought quite a lot about the discussions I was missing and all the old fun so, finally, I...
My favorite television couple would have to be Red and Kitty Foreman from That 70s Show. They genuinely tried to do a good job with their children while remaining realistic (in both good and bad ways.) I sincerely loved that show though I didn't necessarily agree with everything the characters...
*Cheers*:eusa_clap Thankfully my floor is (usually) pretty strict about such things. I mind the dress code on all days, even casual friday as I feel it reflects better on my character. Though I do see some people pushing the envelope occasionally. Elsewhere in the building? *sigh*

I was raised Baptist (both Northern and Southern), spent a few years intrigued by Judaism, then a short hop through Universalist Unitarianism (which still indentifies most closely with my beliefs) and finally settled on Episcopalianism. I'm everywhere.:)

Being that I'm unmarried with the lovely title of Miss before my name, I have no children, yet. But, I want as many as I can graciously afford to have, which, I suppose, will depend upon the man I marry considering I also want to stay home. Ooh, have to be careful about that one, may sound...
I saw it at eleven o'clock last night and I still haven't gotten over it. Besides the historical nature of it--and really, I can rarely resist seeing the past in motion--the movie itself had me within two minutes. While Mr. Wilson did seem a little wooden at times, it wasn't a flaw but (to me)...
Well, if you're ever in Detroit proper, you might want to try out Henry the Hatter downtown. Though I've had their card in my purse for sometime, I've never gotten around to buying anything. Mostly because, though I wore (cheap, one noticably modern, the other actually old and worn) fedoras...
I collect photographs and now have more than my fair share and no one to share them with. What's a girl to do? Why, post them on FL of course!
Here's a smattering to start with, unfortunately not in chronical order on account of their varying sizes:

Darn, I'm too late. Would it be possible to post some of the pictures here? Besides, it doesn't come in either the Detroit Free Press nor The Detroit News. Grrrr.:rage:

I apologize if anyone felt alienated in this thread, that wasn't my intention at all. Strangely enough, it is women such as I, who feel that their "place," so to speak, is in the home that often feel as though a lot of society is frowning upon them. I have much more interest in putting a home...
