Icons of Transportation
It took me 51 years of living before I finally made it to Manhattan to see Grand Central terminal for myself. It was one kind of icon -- thanks to historic photos -- before.
Seeing the space, the structure, in person made it into a completely different icon. It is still the most remarkable building I have ever entered or ridden a train from or back into. This place should be preserved forever!
Paging Ayn Rand
Great photo of Dagny. I like your imagination.
Paging Ayn Rand
I'm getting a flavour of a scene from "Atlas Shrugged" here. That could be Dagny Taggart with the big hat, walking away from the camera.
Dressing up
I miss the days when we used to dress to go out. I think we have lost something over the years. We have become too casual. I know that I feel better about myself if I am dressed well. I know too that a person who is dressed well likely get more respect. Something to think about.....
Well Dressed!
Darn - Everybody looks so well dressed in these GCT and other big city train station photos! Makes me want to put on a suit.
