Just a vanity. I don't post threads very often, so I figured I am due a vanity! Feeling good tonight, and was reminiscing about being a military dependent, and how life was good in so many ways, even if it didn't seem so at the time.
And, my dear Mom who has been gone some years now. It is nice thing to be able to think of her and have a big grin on my face as I do so.

LOL..I promise not to take it seriously...it IS Free Republic, after all...:)
Heck. I could see nearly anything, now that you mention it. Anything from The Hugh Manatee to The Attention Whore image!

I had an aunt who for a while lived in the Philippines. She had many elephants decorating her home. Must be a Filipino thing.

My parents had an Electrolux vacuum cleaner. I remember it very well.

I don’t think it is a Filipino thing, although from what I saw, things with penises were a popular subject, ranging from a nearly naked negrito hunter to a grinning figure taking a bath in a removable wooden barrel which when removed, revealed a wooden replica to spring forth.
LOL, yes. Penises were a popular thing. I was living next to Olongapo City, and that is probably what sold there.

I have always thought that was one of the best things about growing up: being able to interact with your parents as intellectual and emotional peers. Can't do it as a kid, at least I couldn't.
They were my parents.
