key of b!

I want to share with you the things I got at the Flea Market on Sunday! O.K., first, I got a kitty bank for my change that is absolutely adorable. But the main thing that I found is... a vintage VIBRATOR for TWO DOLLARS!!! Geoffrey and I almost wet ourselves trying not to laugh while we were buying it from this cowboy-guy in a horse trailer. The box is in near-mint condition and has the advertisement of the 50's houswife looking... very relaxed. I was chasing Geoffrey around the apartment with it (you should hear low speed, it sounds like a lawnmower) but it plugs into the wall so my scope is limited... the thing that gets me is that it seems like no one talked about what these things were really for. It promises hours of glowing good health, and then suggests holding it against your forehead. It appears that "scalp relief" was 50's code for "orgasm". I mean, I'm sure people weren't ignorant of what was really going to provide them with the promised "glowing good health", it just amazes me that people were so indirect about all this stuff.

Tee hee!
