Hi Cloud! I rather suspected that you felt the same way I do. lol I like your quote from your workshop very much and I think I will pass it on to my son and daughter too. However, your response also brought up one more thing my parents used to say if any one of us were leaving the house to be with other people: Now, for heaven's sake, Behave! My parents created a questioning child--and all I c...

Here is your coffee, Madam--although I'm afraid the airline may not have fresh ginger, which I know is your preference. Might have to accept ground ginger powder instead. So sorry!Your flying experiences are very much like my own these days. I agree about the cost as well, but that is changing here with the increased costs of fuel, all the security measures and less passengers choosing to f...

Hello modest bodhi! I already know your intelligence is far from meager, my friend! Those times were quite interesting to live through and I do remember much about them. It was a revolutionary time to live in my country, in more ways than one. But, in fashion, for the most part, the more things change, the more they remain the same.:-) Many of the styles worn then are popular again, they've ju...

Hi bounce! Here's your Diet Coke, Sir--as unfortunately the person above you beat you to the punch. Perhaps another day.:-) I have to admit, I rather miss seeing all those pretty young ladies in their bright, short uniforms too. I always thought they lived such glamorous lives when I was a kid. But,now I know better. Progress isn't always fun, I guess. If we could have the service of the ol...

I agree with everything you said! How long has it been since we ever got service at a gas station? And yet our generation and older, still has trouble accepting that customer service now days means the customer does the service, or it just won't get done!Nope, don't want to go back to the old sexism either, but the return of the services would be nice, as you said.

Hi cream97! I would guess, with your name--that you would like cream in whatever you drank! lol Please have a lovely cup of cream and tea on me.:-) I do agree, the service was much better in the "old" days--I think they should bring that back, but keep the equa rights that they have now.

Hi sandyaceofhearts! Many people from my generation and earlier think that it was not a fast change at all for women to gain some of the same rights as men in the workplace. In fact, there are many places where equality is still not achieved. In those cases, I wish change would happen sooner, not slowly. Welcome to myLot!
