I know how you feel. Hope you heal very fast. Hey AlnShel, those are some futurly futuristic fine lookin devices. I just want a globe for Xmas, so I can see where all these places are that I've been reading and hearing about. Captain Cook circumnavigated the globe 3 times over 200 years ago in a rickety boat. Now I want to see where he went... from the safety of my room.

Jokes about the noblest profession? Why isn't BambooBen yelling "Fuck you" to everybody over this thread? BambooBen, I want consistency! If the JHK thread was 'political', then there ain't no way you can say this thread ain't religious.

JT Jungle Trader Member Trader's Jungle Outpost, Turlock, Ca. Joined: Jan 04, 2003 Posts: 3772	JT Jungle Trader Posted posted on Thu, Dec 4, 2003 5:58 PM Oh yeah, this thread ain't about religion. It's about.....chocolate fudge and a glass of milk set out for Santa and seeing the look on your kids faces the moment they realize that Santa actually drank most of the milk and ate ALL of the fudge, falling off a ladder while installing ornaments, christmas trees that fall over cuz the cats try to climb it, (never seen 'em run or fly so fast), bitchy people waiting in line, crazy drivers racing around for that one parking spot (when all they had to do is park a little further and walk some of the fat off their ass),........and Christmas morning at the light of dawn.... the thing that makes it all worth it......watching your kids as they open their gifts in their pajamas and seeing their faces light up.

K Kim Member Portland, OR Joined: Feb 24, 2003 Posts: 135	K Kim Posted posted on Fri, Dec 5, 2003 12:16 PM I also stumbled into an eBay auction for repro-vintage stuff by Vintage Wonderland (a Seattle-based company). They create some really nice vintage-look items in a range of sizes! Yay! It's a little pricey, but, on the other hand, paying $100-$200 for a dress you love that fits(!) isn't really unreasonable. http://www.lillijean.com/ (I personally like Betty, Ginger, and Lana!)

JD Johnny Dollar Tiki Socialite Flyover, Missourah Joined: Oct 01, 2003 Posts: 3159	JD Johnny Dollar Posted posted on Tue, Dec 9, 2003 9:32 AM Formikahini and friends: This is what I could find about the midcentury female wear. There is no website I could find. They skirts (I thought dresses - ? shorry I am a guy after all) and bags are made by a local mom. You might try calling the store (info below) to see if you could contact her directly - I'm sure she would work with you. She's really Mayberry-nice. :tiki: :tiki: :tiki: Designs from the Edge Skirts and Bags (all of the items are made by Edye Sanford) sold at Oh! Said Rose, 840 W. 36th St., (410) 235-5170 (Quote from baltimore City Paper): "See, guys, we don't expect you to pick out our clothes or figure out what cool accessory might brighten our winter wardrobe--but we expect you to pay attention when we tell you how to do it. And we are super digging the stuff coming from Designs from the Edge, found at that fount of girlie stuff, Oh! Said Rose. every Designs From the Edge garment is mom-created, locally, for fun and wearability, declare the tags on the A-line, wrap-around mini--but not too mini--skirts; these sewing moms nailed us. The skirts, priced $34.99-$36.99 depending on the rick-rack adornments, are made from a weighty vintage fabric that's gonna hold that sassy shape and come in a range of '50s and '60s patterns, like Atomic Age, Hawaiian palm fronds, bowling a go-go, and muted orange flowers. They sound like they'd be louder than Elvis' tummy after Sunday dinner, but your gal might pair it with black--as in black boots, tights, and sweater--in January and a tank and kicks in June, without ever overstepping the taste line. And the same lush fabrics go into the swingin' little--but not too little--handbags ($24.99-$29.99) that are seriously gonna win you points (their tags: your heart's desire in fabric). Girls like purses, and these original cuties will look tight with both jeans and trousers." Good luck! Let me know if you get thru to her! Be good! j$
