Retro Skates

Check out these retro roller skates. 

That’s a blast from the past. 

Nice blue wheels and rainbow swoosh!  😉

Cut Off The Legs And Call Him Shorty

Who knew, it’s actually a song by Louis Armstrong.

It comes after:

“Shave off my hair and call me baldy.”

They don’t make them like they used to.  😉

Fabric Fabric Everywhere

Beautiful rolls of fabric!

Red, and pink, and blue, and green, and white, and black, and…

I’m outa breath. 

Can you imagine having to make these on a loom like in the olden days? 

Ah, not fun for sure. 

Maybe that’s why some people “go commando.”

Better to just kill a bear or something!  😉

Anti-Dentite, Like Pulling Teeth

This is a hilarious statue of dentist using a pliers to pull out someone’s teeth. 

Notice the dentist has his foot up to get some leverage to pull out the teeth, yikes!

I guess this is how things were in the “olden days.”

No Anesthesia either! 

I’m sure in a hundred years from now, they’ll look at our state of healthcare and laugh too. 

Progress is a great thing! 😉

Colorful Balloons

What a beautiful unique porcelain statue.

A lady with a baby and a bouquet of colorful balloons. 

Really like how the colors of the balloons accent her shawl, scarf, and dress.   

Even the dreary “olden days” are made more cheery with these colorful balloons. 

I’ll take a dozen of those today and every day for a good while to come! 😉

That’s Severe

I know in the olden days they would chop off people’s hands for stealing. 

But this sign in a modern day store in America seemed just a little severe:

Shoplifters will be amputated

The worst part of it maybe is that they don’t say what part of the shoplifter will be amputated. 

So much for compassion and helping the needy. 

L-rd have mercy! 😉
