Well I am a baby boomer from 55 so, but I love antics, I do believe I was born in the wrong era. I would love to be wearing long dresses with bustles. Lynn W.
You baby, you :) I learnt to write with a "dip" pen -- a steel nib inserted into a wooden pen handle (and count your blessings that you don't have to trim a feather). Throughout grades 2 and 3 there was a raging battle between the parents and the teachers to let us use the fountain pens (the kind where the ink supply was sucked from the inkwell into a rubber bulb; no cartridges). And we were only allowed those (in grade 4) because, by then, all the teachers' energies were directed towards repelling the evil invention of the ball-pen... Good times, good times :) _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail is redefining busy with tools for the New Busy. Get more from your inbox.
