If when you started smoking as a teen, rolling your own was the only logical alternative because only the upper crust and women bought those fancy, expensive cigarettes. Of course you started smoking as a teen, EVERYBODY did.

You know you are under forty when you say things like, "you know your over 40 when you chose a screen name like and use the youtag."

However it was funny.

You are over 40 when you saw Gilligan's Island Love Boat and Mash when they aired the first time

It's actually a shortened version of a character name on WoW.  Just so you know.  And SILK was taken

You remember the Sonny and Cher show. "I got you babe" Oh god I'm gonna be sick.

Sonny & Cher - I Got You Babe (With Chastity)

You should have to suffer as much as me. Now I am going to be hearing this song all day in my head. (shit)

as a not even thirty year old, I loathe you all.  The Douglas DC-6 was a fine aircraft... so what if it was a 30 year old aircraft when i flew in one.. the 747 is that old now.... grr...

If you remember Johny Carson ...

Captain Maltese

....if you are listening to Glenn Miller's Orchestra playing Chattanooga Choo Choo and your right foot gets the stomps.


Prefect, the prop plane I remember flying best was the DH-6 Twin Otter. 19 passenger seats, and they were little more than sailcloth over a steel pipe frame.  We had a lot of those here in Norway because of all the short runways that tend to end in seawater or mountain cliffs. Today those planes are all replaced with the DH-8 Dash 8. Twice as many seats, but hey - they are also props!

Another prop job I've been in is the classic Lockheed C-130 Hercules. Yet another workhorse. Again with with the sailcloth seats, too.

You still have the sheet music for Glen Miller's "In The Mood" and can dance the "jitterbug" because your dad taught you!

I love to wear lingerie. The problem is that men always rip it off too quickly. When women are dolled up in lingerie they feel sexy. So let us wear it for five minutes.

I think trying too hard to be sexy is the worst thing in the world a woman can do.
