To all who've posted pics: THANK YOU! These have really brought back memories, most good, some bad, some totally forgotten until now. The world...
Lamont; I live in the Houston, Texas area. I was an electrical designer for a local engineering firm for over 15 years, but got laid off last...
regarding post #104: the location of that couple dancing looks an awful lot like Speedway Meadow in Golden Gate Park; is it? I may have ONE...
Hey, max1144, Klink, Zenbo; It sounds like you may have been there when I was. I remember the Blue U, as well as some other landmarks that are no...
I just stumbled on this particular thread today, and somehow feel as if I've been in a time warp; doesn't anyone who lived in the Haight during...

Welcome, Mystical Mom. I'm a newbie, too, but I'd like to welcome you. This is about as diverse a forum as I've ever found, so you should have no...

I think you've got it! That sounds familiar enough to be what she explained to me. I just might get a referral to a specialist, to check it out....
What a cutie! I know how you feel about him, as I love our little Yorkie. She's only about 2-1/2, but she is well-trained and a constant...
I am 60+, and until a few years ago, never needed glasses. Now, I've got some sort of fluid in my left eye, that gives a sort of smoky, veiny,...
You're right; it was The Gene Krupa Story, and Sal Mineo played the lead part. I remember that well! Also, there a dude named Sandy Nelson in the...
