I'll eventually get back to my French ballgown costume for that one. Honestly, the most difficult of those was my costume for the 300 group because I couldn't find anything remotely similar to use as a base so I kind of made it up as I went along and it was my first time working with pleather. This year my Hippolyta will be the most difficult I think because I've never worked with foam and made armor, but I hope it turns out well enough to be recognizable. Oh, and I just ordered some of the fabric to make an 18th century dandy costume for the night we'll be at the aquarium - not sure how well two of us are going to pull off being men, but we'll see.
You Guys/Girls really get into these things. I may have left 'Hotlanta' too soon. Not quite the conservative southern town I knew back in the 70-80's time frame, but then I know better having seen it grow up over the years.
Looks like you having a blast.

You can always visit! Actually I wouldn't if I didn't still live here and I can't wait until we retire and move away. I sometimes like being one of the few natives around here, but I'm so tired of most of what goes on these days. If I'm going to live somewhere hot, I'd rather either be close to water (Gulf coast) or somewhere without the humidity (Vegas). Atlanta is VERY different from then. I remember when I was in high school and we'd come into town and get lost or go to Buckhead (which I avoid like the plague now). If you ever want to reminisce and see how things have changed, send me a PM so I don't bore everyone else here. I grew up just south of town in Jonesboro, but have now lived in town since I moved back from my year in exile with relatives in Cairo, GA - that was my punishment for having too much fun at GT and flunking out of school. DragonCon is HUGE (last year I think attendance was over 70k) and we do pretty much take over downtown. My husband even got me a hotel room down here so that I wouldn't come home at 3 in the morning drunk and wake him up. He isn't into any of it, but he encourages me because he knows I enjoy it and it's how I met my best friend.

I did a quick search and found this: 2x7w Ghost Shadow Laser Projector Logo LED Door Step Light Courtesy for JAGUAR

I'm assuming those are the lights you mean?

Chinese Man is one of my favorite bands.

Not necessarily their best track, but if you dig on hip hop beats in a downtempo style, as delivered by a trio from Aix-En-Provence, then it might be right up your alley.

This forum is a hoot. You guys are so refreshing and such a nice contrast to my previous experience with enthusiasts.

I concur. As I've said before, y'all are (mostly lol) a breath of fresh air compared to some of the fb Jag groups. Having recently gotten a used Volt for a daily, that forum isn't that friendly either...

The Volt forum isn't friendly? What's up with that? Are they angry?
We driving "the" ()British marquee may be the last bastion of civility. I haven't been on an Aston or Rolls forum though. If they have them, I would expect them to act accordingly

We are truly the tea & crumpet set of the forum world (or is that tea & strumpets?).

well....., at least we would like to think a lot of strumpets, but that would begin to be misogynistic, and most here are very open minded in every way.

I left the FB Jag groups because they were more Facebook than Jag. This is where it’s at....

I might resemble that remark.

If we can figure out and use the word for a male strumpet, then I think we're good. No misogyny if I get to think of male strumpets while drinking my tea.

There's no point in having such a term since we're all that way.
