Gloves Operator
How did you like Department Stores?
Ok, "I'm Here" just got me
athinkin. When I was little, my
mom left me at kiddyland in the Famous-Barr store in St. Louis. What a joy that was.
Later, I would go with her to
all the floors and look at all
the goodies. The ladies in
hats and gloves and the elevator operator that sang out: "First floor,jewelry,powder,purses,gloves,
perfumes, Second Floor:
whatever. There were no
shopping carts so we had to
carry the various boxes. then
there was lunch on the mezanine. Wow, tuna salad
in a tomatoe. Then I got the
streetcar ride home. I also
remember the "Bon" in Seattle, which is no more.
Ladies how did you like the
genteel style of shopping?
LOL well now I know what the Mezzanine was for. I didn't
remember what was on that floor. I don't even remember if
the door opened on that floor to take a peak. But considering
the years I was in one of the old stores, I'm probably just for-
getting.
There was one dept.store I really loved growing up. And
that was Bedells. It was a smaller store than Meier and Franks across the street. But the moment you walked in, the
smells from the perfume counter greeted you. And you almost
floated in on the aroma (like in the cartoons). The same with
Lipmans, next door. That store seemed to have more
glitz when you entered. Maybe they had fancier lighting, but it
seemed more upscale than M&F's. I believe they carried
some heftier price tags for their merchandise and spendier
labels.
I loved then, and now, dept. stores at Christmas. All of the
fragrances of holiday scents fill the stores and with all of the
cheerful decor, you can't help but find some holiday cheer,
just in wishing there was a Santa Claus. Meier and Franks
always had a special animated Christmas display in one of
their big windows. And children would line up to take turns
peaking in and enjoying the "show". For there was always a
special scene with a special theme. And there would be
anything from dolls ice skating, to trains going around tracks.
And to dancing stuffed bears and all things imaginable. It
didn't occur to me, that maybe some of those moving toys
might be for sale in the toy dept. And we'd want our parents
to buy us something in that dept, we saw in the show window.
There was one old dept store, called Olds & King. And it
would be the last stop for shopping when I went with my
mother downtown as a child. There, she'd treat me to lunch in their downstairs coffee shop. And we'd take the same booth every time. And I'd always have a "Green River" pop with
whatever I ordered. And mom would usually have a club
sandwich and coffee. That's when waitresses wrote down their orders on a paper order pad, and didn't have to memor-
ize a persons' order. All tickets and your money, went to the cashier on your way out the door.
One thing that stands out in my mind about dept. stores in
the 40's and 50's, were the vacuum money tubes that the
store dept clerks would put your money into, and and they'ed
be sucked up in that tubing to the store office upstairs and
if you had change, it would be put into the same container
and blown back downstairs in the same vacuum tubing. I
was always fascinated with that and the noise it made leaving. Clerks didn't have to worry about handling the money
paid to them all that much in those days. They'ed just send
your money off, and give you change back. And they'ed
count out your change when handing it to you, rather than
drop it into your hand without a word.

Golf Training Gloves
Why use golf training gloves? That's a good question and I suppose it depends on a couple of factors. An old friend of mine is a golf pro in Hawaii and he has been touting golf training gloves for ever. If your main concern is to go out and get a little exercise on the golf course on a beautiful day, then golf training gloves may not be necessary. However, if you are like the millions of golfers who would like to improve their game, the twenty to fifty dollars spent on golf training gloves is well spent.
Golf is like other sports in that there is a social function and a sporting function both operating at the same time. People's focus shifts from one to the other, rarely is there a balance that produces a quality performance. It hardly matters if the social aspects produce the desired effect of fun, relaxation and a chance to get in the game. Fitness and training are promoted over and over again. To be fit is to be strong enough to play the game, with breath sufficient to walk the distance and enough conscious will to make it through when the going gets a little rough. There's also a role that luck plays in the process. But even with luck it's been said that it is 80% receptivity and fitness. I think the idea is that when you are fit, you can be ready to capitalize on good opportunities as they arise.
If performance training is in your frame of reference, then golf training gloves should be considered along with all the other training aids on the market. Some have to do with a particular training philosophy while others deal with specific swing or stance elements. Some are just a marketing ploy. If you look at golf from with a wide view, it is easily discerned that the hands, arms and shoulders play a big role. Golf training gloves deal with connective relationship between the hands and the wrists with the arms and shoulders. With most golf training gloves, you actually wear only one glove on the opposite hand (if you're right handed, you use a left hand glove). Through varied design means, the glove directs the wrist action, helping it to conform properly. Golf training gloves promote an overall better swing, more direction control and improved game. The price for golf training gloves is initially steep, but when compared to shoes or clubs - the cost in minimal. Give it a try and swing away!

Hun, I think you can do better. You seem like too nice of a person to be going out with a guy who clearly doesn't care about anything else besides buying booze.. He can't afford to get his car out of the impound lot because he's more focused on buying booze with his money instead of saving it to get it out. Not to mention he's drinking while driving with you in the car…
I would of NEVER gotten into a car with him knowing he's been drinking, he could wind up causing an accident and killing you both and others around or seriously injuring you both..
And regardless of being a war veteran, that cop should of slapped him with a ticket… Yes he may have fought for the country but that doesn't give him the right to drink and drive.. He knew the consequences and still did it anyways knowing he'd get away with it. He was putting your life as well as his and others at danger..
Sounds to me like he really don't give crap about you if he's willing and able to put your life in danger by drinking and driving.
Find another man, who's good to you and move on.
