Happy November: A Housewife Who Finds Her Own Personal Zen In Her Ability To Make Coffee For Her Ever-Lovin' Hubby, Harvey

This 1960s housewife is dismayed to learn that The Girls At The Office make better coffee for her Harvey than she does (on their "hot plates," no less)!



"If I could just make a decent cup of coffee, I could relax!"

From 1979: And Then You Run Across Something So Awesome, Even I Am Rendered Speechless.

It's a home movie!

It's an official PSA film for the California Highway Patrol! (That's right, where Ponch and John worked!)

It's...I have no words for how this incarnates everything I love about Vintage.

In a word, it's awesome.

(And I think we have a rumaki sighting, folks! Pardon me, I have to go take a couple of belts of somethingorother to come down from the high this clip gives me.)

Screw Chanel

THIS is the most elegant handbag I can think of. And it comes with a thermos, so I could tote along a cold drink or a hot soup...like magic!

Truth is, I really dig vintage metal lunchboxes. It is one thing that I could easily see myself collecting. The trouble would be keeping them pristine. I would want to use them for everything. "Oh, you want a Ritz cracker? Here, let me get you one from my Laugh-In lunchbox. Of course, that's where we store our Ritz crackers. They deserve the utmost in elegance, don'tcha think?"

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year...To Take Some Time Off From Blogging

I'm a little burned out, folks, and like the rest of you, I have tons of stuff going on during the next three weeks.

Thanks to all of you who have made this blog part of your Internet day. I am very honored to have you come around and kick it with me, old school.

I leave you with what might be the single most awesome clip I have ever seen on The Internets.

Love to everyone. XOXOXOXOXO

See you in 2010...
