It's a tempting auction. Would be a great decorative item though getting that thing working again would probably be a bad idea. A bad idea I'd so want to try. @Alice...Maybe...but think of all the cool clothes in the first 40 years alone. :D @Nadya…I wonder what the shipping cost would be on that beast?

A bad idea I’d so want to try.

@Alice…Maybe…but think of all the cool clothes in the first 40 years alone. :D

Tentacle'd hairdryers and lobotomies galore, oh my! Despite what women have gone through in the distant past, the first half of the 20th century strikes me as one of the scarier times to be female.

I just got done reading this comic that takes place in 1900 new york, so I read all that odd auto-slang and metaphor in old timey gangster-speak. Wonderful!
