My sister got some of our old family movies converted to DVD (btw, if you haven’t done this, please do!!! It’s not that costly.). In addition to seeing so many of our loved ones in their younger days, who have since passed away, there was this:

White gloves & a hat....on me, at about 4 years old! I almost fell over when I saw this. I don’t know the event, but it appears that it was to see the Christmas parade in downtown Cleveland in the mid 1960’s. The reason I think it was the parade was that the film went seamlessly from us leaving the house and then right to the parade. And most of the females were wearing gloves and hats!

I miss gloves and hats. I’d replace them with the tattoos I have to see females wearing today. meh

‘I’d replace them with the tatoos I have___________.’

G r o a n - tatoos! - whole ‘nuther subject.

It’s gotten so I don’t know where to look when I see tatoos on anyone - especially clerks, who I kind of have to look at - don’t know what I might see!
Clerks in Whole Foods, for instance. Dunno - food and tatoos, for me, don’t mix!

I’m thinking that many have tatoos and certain tatoos just for the shock factor.
Those with tatoos can’t see the ones WE have to look at depending where it is on their body.
It’s so in our face.
I’m thinking that’s the intention.

Those tatoos that are charming, sweet, and few, so be it. But that all-over stuff is murky, ‘dark’ and off-putting.
I know, I know, those tatooed don’t care!

Not picking on you, but I found a chance to sound off!

However, I originally came here to reply because it’s your tag-line which first caught my attention - outstanding!
