![]() ![]() Those Kodak 110 Cameras were small enough for women to put in their purse and carry at all times. The film was just 110 mm so the negatives were tiny. They were passable but already a bit grainy as a 4x6. Enlarged to a 5x7 they were very grainy. 8x10s just sucked. And many photo labs had a "technician" that had no idea of what they were doing in mixing the chemicals, and making a print. It still blows me away that I can whip out my cell phone and take a better photo than a 35mm professional camera. As long as it is within normal distance. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Is that the same woman? If so, it's VERY sad. The original version was beautiful. The new version is a scary clown.

I've seen beautiful women ruin themselves with cosmetic surgery. It's usually painfully obvious, like weird noses, cheek bones, chins, or lips or skin that looks like wax or plastic. Years ago, I knew a really beautiful girl that was also super sweet. I don't know how old she was, but I'm pretty sure she was 20-25. I didn't see her for a while, and then saw her again after she'd had something done to her lips. It may have just been the top lip, and it was very slight (not like she went for the Angelina Jolie look). But it was obvious, and caught me off guard. I didn't say anything, but it stopped me in my tracks for about a second, and then I recovered. Still, it was enough to make her start crying. It wasn't too bad, but it still wasn't any sort of improvement. I'm hoping that whatever it was, it was the type that would wear off after some period of time. I think the first wife is a lovely woman. The second wife was also striking in that pic. Maybe in the first pic, it's mostly unflattering light and make-up. She doesn't look that much different than she did in the pic where she's attractive.

external USB drives are cheap, and will often read CDs, DVD, BD, and also write some or all of those.

Would have been worthwhile to spend a little extra and have the engine balanced.

Thanks for posting. This pic brings back many happy memories. Learnt to fly in Victa Airtourers with Wellington Aero Club from this strip in 1967! Lived over the hill across the harbour in Johnsonville. Had to catch the train and bus to the airport because I was too young to drive, but had my PPL! Windy? I remember taking off from one end of the runway, climbing to 1000' and doing a touch and go on the other end. That was in a demo Champion Citabria.

![]() ![]() ![]() I remember in grade school walking a half a block to my elementary school to watch these Jason and the Argonauts type of movies with stop motion special effects by Ray Harryhausen. They were amazing at the time.
