Some "retro" ads for today...

Thought Reagan would know that "backwards" like that typically means "fuck you." Maybe he did?

I'm an 80's and 90's kid. WE never had awesome toys like that...

Who knows what that is? No, it's not dirty (I know what you're thinking... ). I actually learned how to use one. I have a whole box of them with "Detroit Diesel" logos that were my dad's. Don't know how he got them. Passed 'em out to one of my programming classes to see if they could figure them out.

Definitely was born in the wrong time. A Sears catalog from the 60's. Research was required. The unbelievably beautiful model is Jean Shrimpton.

Christmas in July! Can't disagree with that statement. A Guinness sounds good right now.

Notice anything suggestive about this ad? Neither did I...

That was my calculator in highschool. They're quite easy to use and very accurate.

A few years ago I was working on the same project as a couple of engineering students. Naturally they used portable calculators and their phones when they had to do any mathematics. I amazed them when I could do the same calculations faster in my head than they could on their calculators. I told them about slide rules as a calculator and at first they thought I was pulling their leg. I told them to 'google' slide rule. It was quite the revelation for them after I explained how to use one.

I learned how to use a slide rule from my High School physics teacher. But I had played around a little with the ones I mentioned in my previous post as a kid. I think they were some kind of promotional item as they had “GM” and “Detroit Diesel” stamped on the case. My teacher could also beat any of us with our calculators.

My students had fun with them but quickly became bored and gave up.

Spent most of this afternoon learning about my new “crush.” Wow. I never expected to see anyone like that in a Sears catalog. The only thing I remember about a Sears catalog was the guy with his cock hanging out of his underwear…

Apparently, Jean was very big in the 60’s. One article referred to her as the “first supermodel.” Lots of stuff on her. I think she’s absolutely totally gorgeous.

(No wonder Sears is in trouble… No catalogs like that anymore. Heard they have already filed for bankruptcy in Canada. )

It looks like I missed out on a lot in the old Sears catalogues. When I was a kid I went right to the toys (kids' toys - get your mind out of the gutter ) and then sports equipment when I got older. When I got into my late teens and from then on I went to the tool section and later the tool catalogues. Obviously I should have been looking at the women's clothing sections.

The Sears model is very cute and you know I like the retro stuff

I think the first thing I ever jerked off to was a woman's clothing catalog. Remember the good old days before the internet?

Yes. It's hard to believe there was life without it. Smartphones too. One had to be more, umm... "creative." I used to take my mom’s Sears catalog upstairs just to look at the models.

I still remember her. She had a very short blue nightgown on and great legs. She was standing with her head back and her hand looked like it was brushing her hair. Her legs were apart. Afterward I was so scared that I might have come on my mom's catalog... Death would have been the result. God, I didn’t realize my memory was that good…

Jean Shrimpton’s modeling career predates me by at least several years! If I had known of her I probably would have cut those pages out and put them on the wall of my room. My biggest “crushes” in the 80’s were Christie Brinkley, Heather Thomas, Nancy Wilson, and Debbie Gibson (the 80's "Hannah Montana" LOL). I got to meet Heather at something I went to with my dad. Maybe ’87 or ’88. This was long after “Fall Guy.” She was super sweet and I was totally in awe of her. I still have the autographed pic. I’m sure she thought a certain 7 or 8 year old was quite the precocious little shit…

The period from maybe the forties through the eighties is perhaps the “great” era of glamour. Maybe that’s why we enjoy so many of the drag queens—they bring back the femininity and sexuality of that time.

What is the saying? "It's all fun 'till someone gets hurt." I don't know for sure the status of the driver (I have heard they survived) but the second picture is all they were able to salvage of the car.

A Hellcat can put out 700 hp when you use the red key. For comparison a NASCAR Sprint Cup engine puts out about 800-900 hp. The old supercharged "Offys" of Indy fame back in the day were around 1,000 hp.

A Bugatti Chiron produces around 1,500 hp. Top speed 261 MPH (420 km/h). I once said about the Chiron "It will give you an orgasm... or kill you."

(Just heard that Floyd Mayweather has to sell his Bugatti. Maybe I can buy it from him? )

I'm going to respond to this over in the Drag Queens thread as it ties in with our discussions there.

It is about time that someone liked the glam of the eighties too. I am a little too young for the forties but I learned to play guitar in the eighties just to wear the makeup and the clothing for an excuse. I still play hair metal. Does anyone remember how pretty Vince Neil was on the jacket of Shout at the Devil? Hell the song Dude Looks Like a Lady by Aerosmith was written about Vince Neil. What about all the members of Poison when Looked What the Cat Dragged in was released on the jacket? I was in my teens and albums like that and bands like that made me want to learn and play in a band. Teased hair with too much hair spray and over the top makeup and high heels and tight pants and tops. The forties was very glam but the women were fem and the men were masculine, the eighties opened the door for a lot more. I am glad I lived those times because it was a way to express without too much BS involved. I remember buying makeup at department stores in Little Rock and getting a look and just saying I was in a band and all was good. It was the same with the hair at a salon when I wanted bottle blonde.

I am probably a little older than you because I was doing my deal in Hollywood in '87 and '88 couch surfing, starving and praying for a gig at the "Whiskey". We were a little after our time though.

But when it comes between Debbie Gibson and Tiffany I always though Tiffany was a little better looking and kind of like most girls I grew up around. Debbie Gibson seemed a little more preppie. But I really didn't listen to that kind of music though. I was still ACDC, Poison, Sabbath, Motley Crue, and others that was a little harder driving.

Just my one and half cents worth.
