Thank you, Steve...

I did not know it, before you wrote on the SOTD.

I imagine: a friend of mine caught it too and is recovering.
Got my first shot, notwithstandind I did not want to ad they are not real vaccines and developed in too short a time to be reliable.

But fear in this Police State they'll set up too many obstacles.
Only hope this fake democracy will let me write for a while...

Hope you'll catch up soon!

 

Thanks, Steve.

I think you single-handedly keep PAA in business.

I had a bottle way back in the day. Gave it away.
Found this Cosmair on Ebay. I also found a miniature 5ml Warner bottle, which I decanted into a sprayer. Very different juice.
A real icon and the best of RL's fragrances.

 

Saturday, face shave.
