Great! i was reading a bunch of newsletters (dating from the 1970's) and stumbled across limn's.. i remembered it.

nancy drew had old words even in the 1950's like "roadster" (for her car!)

and nowdays, no one opens their clutch, to get there pancake and to touch up their foundation..

(they open their purse or bag, and add more blusher or check their base (makeup) Rouge (really a word that was before my time.. is long gone too..

my mother used a bit of VO5 hair pommaide.(is that spelled right?) now my daughter uses "product" sometimes lots of product, sometimes almost none.. (could be gel, or mouse, or anti frizz serum, or 'shiners' or polishers.. but VO5?
never!)
