That is to say, I have always had an inexplicable pull toward the 20's, 50's, and 60's. Ever since I came to America, that is. And I mean, I sometimes feel like I belong in the 20's America, etc. I'm not anywhere close to being a historical preservationist, I just have a strange sense of longing for "the old days", "the way it used to be". I love going through old pictures, trying to <B>feel</B> what life was like back then, trying to <B>hear</B>, <B>smell</B>, <B>taste</B>, <B>see</B> (after all, the world was not black and brown).
