And that's probably why I haven't heard it much. I just heard this saying read off and old nick nack: "the most precious antique is a good friend." I really wouldn't care to have someone calling me an antique. And you?

I’ve been going through some old photos and came across this one. It’s obviously very old and has seen better days. There is nothing on the back and nothing to indicate who these ladies might have been. There is also no-one old...

Apparently 3 tornadoes did touch down in Central Ohio on the night that cold front came through. I hope no one was injured. It's going to be cold again today (3/28 - at or below freezing); and then it will start warming up...

BarBaraPrz Definitely nutty weather... I'd say yoyo weather, one day warmish, next day not so much. Today's forecast: "Mostly cloudy with snow showers during the morning. Cold. High 2C. Winds WNW at 15 to 25 km/h. Chance of snow 60%."

BarBaraPrz Anything over 50 years is considered antique, so I guess I am an antique. When I was working in an eclectic shop, someone came in asking if we had any antiques, to which I answered, "The only antique here is me."

Years ago, the subject of generic brand items came up, and the guy who brought it up made a point of which I wonder if you would agree. He said he bought generic vanilla wafers because you can’t find bad ones. He said there are...

BarBaraPrz Amoxicillin is tackling an abcessed tooth (and anything else that might be wrong) so I fell asleep easily and didn't wake until about 5am, peed, and went back to sleep for a few hours.
