Just Like Fishin'
"Let's go "shoppin'", Thomas," said my grandpa, sometime back in the 80s. Grandpa was in his 70s at the time, so he needed a bit of help with the "shoppin'" he had in mind, as I was soon to discover. Next door to his business was a thrift store. Grandpa shopped in the dumpster out back for dress shoes which fit his size 11 EE feet perfectly, 1950s era stainless steel Sunbeam toasters that just needed a new cord and a bit of cleaning to make the most perfectly browned toast you've ever seen and other similar goodies. "One man's trash is another man's treasure, ain't that right, Thomas?" I nodded. "They're getting downright stingy over here, these days, not like they used to be, wha?" I'd never been over here before, so I couldn't judge, but we only found one item in need of a new cord that day. Apparently, though, that was stingy of the thrift store's owners in comparison to former times in the past year or two.

A Clue Or A Task!?
First thing first, so please allow and read forward with the knowledge that religion does not set a boundary in the life, mind, spirit or friendships on the path that thy two feet walk. I respect every and all believes of others and continue to keep an open mind and heart because " all are teachers, student thy am". I choose to be a 'bridge', to bring other's together and create a bigger space for us to live and roam in harmony.

Thrift Store
I love walking around friends' dwelling and looking at the artwork. Some people have gallery walls, while others have a centralized image. People have, collections from trips, art work done by either their children or friends and relatives. And of course there are those that can afford established artists. My mother used to have art work from her trip to Paris. There also were some pictures that had been printed by an artist we visited in Florida. When my mother died I took the picture of the owl, done by the Floridian artist.

What Should Men Wear Under a Leather Blazer to Look Stunning?
If I would ever be questioning you about the apparel that always rock in bringing warmth, comfort, and style; leather jackets and blazers would definitely be your first and last answer. Leather outerwear are not only comfortable and sophisticated but also very elegant and stunning enough to steal the limelight.

The Black Aesthetic
Introducing PUNK FASHION! “The Black Aesthetic” Punk style is extremely UNDERRATED, Many people’s first impressions of punk fashion, or grunge fashion, are less than great. “Trashy” “Skimpy” “Goth”. I think in a lot of ways these judgments are pretty accurate since punk has been stereotyped. HOWEVERRR, you can most definitely dress “punky” without the fishnets and black lipgloss! I believe the true essence of punk and grunge is the dark aesthetic of it all.

Thrift Store Queen
Above me hangs a square sign in its tarnished white and star-printed glory. Rusted bikes, Fisher-Price kitchen playsets, and dated plastic picnic chairs sit in front of the glass doors on the sidewalk. What will I discover today? I push the heavy metal handle and walk inside, hearing the hustle and bustle of some of the most unique shoppers around. A garbage pit to some, this is my tshatshke goldmine; my penny-pincher Olympics. This is my favorite gem, the Red White and Blue Thrift Store.
