When I was a teenager (was it that long ago?!), my parents collected green stamps and redeemed them. I remember going to the not-so-local redemption store.
I saw TSA pulling aside a woman at New Orleans, who was in a wheelchair and looked vaguely Muslim-ish (and not at all threatening). It is such a difference flying overseas and flying in the U.S.
H & H Green Stamps got me a half way decent pool table. Had lots of friends until the town truant officer paid a visit to my parents. I remember how dry my tongue was. Luckly I was too old to remember how sore my rump should have been.
OK, admittedly I had a bad attitude toward airport security even before the Suppression of Liberties Act and I’ll concede that I may have driven all day to get to an airport out of the US rather than go through TSA in the past but I was nice about it this time… had everything in order and didn’t say anything that might be taken as a criticism of procedures (for such speech can be construed as a federal crime these days)… Still, I was subjected to both the live scan AND the enhanced pat-down. Makes me wonder why I bother…?
PS: re blog: dress… one of the most erotic pictures you’ve ever posted.. thankx… Ponderosa: up until a few months ago you could have visited the ranch and had lunch and seen a few props from the show.. Incline Village NV.. the land is so valuable that they closed the attraction and I think condos are on the way.
I remember the “S&H Green Stamps”. There were also “Eagle Stamps” and “Top Value Stamps” (I gave those out when I pumped gas.) My father used to smoke “Raleigh” cigarettes (plain end, not filtered) by the carton to get the four extra coupons that came in the carton. I remember that he redeemed them once for a Sunbeam electric skillet, but there must have been other things as well that I don’t remember. Here’s a YouTube video of the old Raleigh commercials: Raleigh commercials

He might not know but she might. That’s a woman’s hand and those hips are rather feminine.

Thanks xtech. I thought I remembered what an alpenhorn was. Even lager than I recalled.

Harrumph! I have never misplaced my alpenhorn! Such carelessness! Tsk, tsk!

Is that an alpenhorn in your pocket, or are you just…

And I always wondered if that’s what Aunt Fritzi would look like in a sheer, pleated dress.

Probably he misplaced it on the Matterhorn, while he was attempting to shoot an elephant in his pajamas—wait, perhaps that was his alpenstock.

Shouldn’t the caption on the blog read “UnDress” instead of “Dress?” And it is a lovely undress, too!!

Speaking of homemade weaponry, an alpenhorn just may do the trick.

MzD/B you’ve attracted a smart group… had an idea of what that was and comments cleared it up… with a picture even….

Looks like Dress Lady didn’t have a replacement adult diaper either, huh!

Re dress: I believe that’s a negligee, or nightgown, if you will.

Today’s theme is the same as yesterday’s. That’s the long and the short of it.
