The Sock Hop was a great success..everyone had a great time and me especially. The gents loved wearing the black motor cycle jacket and had a great time pretending the candy cigarettes was the real thing. I kept rolling them up in their sleeves asking them if they did that when they were young..only a couple did..I said good, now you get the relive the childhood you never had. We had malteds, I made pink scarves(ran out) and used some other material for the lady's...put Joe and Louis's hair in duck tails and with the candy cigarette and the jacket they looked really cool..We had pink lipstick and nail polish but most of the ladies didn't want their hair touched and they already had their nails done. I was at it from 7a.m. till 5 p.m. I'm still recouping ..wore me out..Have leg cramps you wouldn't believe..But it was worth it...I read some of the stats of stuff that happened in the 50's. The cost of new houses, wages etc. and told them that in the 50's the life expectancy of men was 61 and women was 65..told them to give them selves a hand ..they beat the record and they were still here and going strong. I'll post pictures tomorrow..tonight?I'm too pooped...have a great weekend...
As most know I do the Putin Cartoons for Jan..the one with the busty women are for you guys..thanks to a suggestion by Karl..so ..? thank Karl..ha.

Glad to hear the Sock Hop was a hit! But sounds like you rocked around the clock and wore yourself out -- you deserve to take the weekend off! Dexter can cook and do the housework for you.
Great gags today! If I had to just pick one fave, it would be "Arise my minions!"
You've outdone yourself with these. Too many good ones to just pick out one. Made my day!
Arnold definitely owes Weiner a big one for the timing.
If everyone pretended Palin was invisible, would she go away?
Sounds like you made a lot of people happy this week - including yourself. Shame the nail-polish was redundant, but your pink scarves sure seems to have hit the spot! I don't know where you find the energy, but I think a lot of folk are real glad that you do.
Speed Bumps!
Looking forward to the Sock Hop pics.
You do wonderful things Jackie.
I can't praise you enough.
When it's my time I hope I have an angel such as yourself! :0)
Thanks for the speed bumps!!
:)
Sounds like you really made the old folks lives much nicer with that awesome party you threw 'em.
I hope you recovered quickly.
