Holiday Card - Snowy River 2 HM0049 (2), originally uploaded by Eudaemonius.

Like holiday cards? I love the old vintage ones like this one! It zoomed up the charts as soon as I posted it, and I am sharing here too for my Ro-Peeps. Bo, if you are out there, I had to borrow it. Sorry. If you enjoy these vintage card, click the pic and book mark my Flickr. Many more to come. If you like and would like to support the efforts, I shamelessly ask you to click some advertisers. Enjoy these winter scenes as the summer heat comes on. R-

P.S. - I forgot to tell you the album of these cards came from a scap book collection I found here in a Santa Barbara last year. There are lots of holiday cards and events from the late 1930's through 1950's. I will continue to post and update as I can. Enjoy!

City Center Las Vegas

City Center Las Vegas 2008-09-13 (6), originally uploaded by Eudaemonius.

If and when they finish the Las Vegas City Center I will visit. If I won the lottery, I think I would buy one of the sky-high condos. I am so impressed with the layout of the City Center, and this blue building is rocking my world. I love the smooth feel and modern look it has. I love that it is right on the strip and will have much around it. Has anyone out there bought in yet? Did the market crash kill the hopes and dreams? R-

You know this is an old party flyer I had for years and finally scanned and posted a while ago. Today it topped 820 hits on Flickr. It is consistently in the top 10 of my hits, so I thought I would broadcast it all for you. R-

Sneaky Peaky - Barbecue Book

Preview - Barbecue Book, originally uploaded by Eudaemonius.

This 1959 Cookbook is my new project to get up on the web. Better Homes & Gardens Barbecue Book is a great cartooned practical guide to back yard bar-b-queing. I am not so sure I would make the blueberry pancakes it suggests on the grill, but it a fun read. Here is the front cover with some great artwork. Check back frequently as I will keep posting the whole book. E-

More into to come on this brochure from the Seattle Monorail, but wanted to give a sneak peak at what is in the works. The whole brochure from the 1960's World Fair will be done soon.

Depeche Mode's New Album

1993 04 Depech Mode Article 01, originally uploaded by Eudaemonius.

Back when the Earth was flat and I was young, I was enthralled by Depeche Mode. I thought often what the London music scene was like and how much I wanted to be there. Flash forward 20 years, and Martin Gore resides in my home town! I have seen him around twice, once purchasing canned corn at Vons supermarket in line right in front of me, and once at the Greek festival where he strolled leisurely with a gorgeous Amazonian Blond on his arm. Not wanting to be Starfucker, I was calm and cool, keeping my distance and letting him have his life without bombardment. Two days ago I got the new album, Sounds of the Universe, and was most sad by the time I finished scrolling through the songs. I will of course go back and listen more fully, but for now the wailing sounds of Dave's recovery bore me. Sorry Robert Joneses, Yawn. R-

OK, Update. I have been listening again, and I am in a different mood, more that seems to match better the album. It is growing on me now. Hint: Be chill when listening, it helps.
