Hehe. Yeah, happens to the best of us. I remember when I was taking care of folks in a retirement home, and some may have been in their 90's or even 100's and they had old pictures of themselves back when they were in their 20's. It's kind of a revelation, they were pretty hot..  Watching old tv shows and movies… them women didn’t get tramp stamps, and their femininity and the way they carried themselves was very appealing… wow! And the racy ones that came along a bit later, Raquel Welch, Ann Margaret, more risqué, but they never crossed the line to look like the Hollywood trash we see now. That's not what folks were saying then. |

Scanned a few old negatives. Here's my older brother and mom in the late 50's.  |

That's not what folks were saying then. I don’t doubt that, but measured by degrees in the culture, it was much more genteel. I don’t remember songs in the 60’s referring to women as Ho’s, and super bowl programs where the women paraded themselves as the same. It may have been more back room , but culturally I think we were better for it. |

Good morning fellow pipers, 82F already. There should be some relief after the rain later today, so in the meantime I’ll just enjoy a bowl of Midnight English in a Peterson 03 Kildare... a large black coffee alongside...  |

Time for some more pictures. The following images are unedited scans of some B&W pics I took with a "Toy" camera that was purchased for 5.00 in a thrift store. It was very funky to use and I was surprised to find out that they even turned out. So without any further ado, here they are in no particular order.  |
