Miss that so much~!!! I also miss the days when smart phones actually worked and weren’t always in need of updates that mess your phone up~

Just adding this 1950’s news ad here just because… what exactly is going on in this picture~? The article starts out: “Number 16 made great connections in his 11yrs with the NY Giants… On and off the field~“😳🤭😂🤣😂🤣❤️ Looks like he made some pretty close connections on the field~ One can only image what they were off the field~
 So much fun~!!!

Progress is fantastic but I would still like to turn back the clock for a day and have lunch at a Horn & Hardart Automat and dinner at Howard Johnson’s

Having a body that works and doesn't hurt all the time.

I agree with observations made on the progress Gays have seen over the decades and the greater freedom and protections now in place and would not want to return to the darker days before Stonewall.

But ... I do miss hustler bars; they were more exciting than a day at Disneyland. However, tempus fugit.

Nostalgically, I agree with Barnard Shaw that "youth is wasted on the young." Ah, if I knew then ... etc.

I joined with a friend each Christmas Eve for a holiday dinner at a lovely home, where the same folks would gather by tradition each year.  For me it was a magical evening of fellowship with some very interesting people.   So many fun, amazing stories were shared.   The gathering was like my own personal Brigadoon. 

But the pandemic stopped the gathering last year, and of course again this year.  I don't know if the host will resurrect the event in the future.  I have a sense he won't for various reasons.   The pandemic has eliminated all sorts of activities, but this is one of the most special, one that I'll think about again this Christmas Eve.
