It shakes me! It quakes me! It makes me feel goose-pimply all over!

One of the things I like about antique stores is that they sometimes have piles of old Life magazines. I love to pour through the articles and ads but have really always been impressed with the pictures. So you can imagine how excited I was to find out Life had reached a deal with Google to post all their pictures on line. You can search through them here.

Some of the ones I'm partial to so far...

Oh man, I'm going to spend many fruitful hours at work not doing any work. Thanks for posting this!

And goddamn was Marilyn Monroe a stone cold babe. Yowza.

When I was a kid, waiting for the Life magazine was one of my favorite things... the waiting was delicious and the magazine was pure gift.

And my dad had zillions of old ones - so that was another way to while away the hours.

Now of course there are blogs!

This cuts down on paper and usage of the copy machine. You do not have to be physically present to receive fax since everything is sent straight to your inbox. These refilled toners are also environmentally friendly when they have to be disposed. The online fax technology, also known as Internet fax or email fax, has improved on the clunky old method of the past. As this loan is secured against your future paycheck therefore the applicant can directly authorize the lender to debit the loan amount from the applicants account. RingCentral Some of them even allow you to send a certain number of faxes at no cost. If a decorative retro 'fax machine phone' isn't enough incentive for you to reuse your old fax machine then it's time for extreme measures.
