Dating Advice from 1944: How to Pick Your Right Girl For $.98 cents you too can unlock the mystery of getting along with girls. In one of the old men’s magazines I have in my collection, I spotted an ad for a book called How to Get Along with Girls. Curious on what sort of dating advice was dispensed in 1944 when the book was published, I wanted to get my hands on it. The ad said all I needed to do was send in .98 cents and the secrets of getting along with girls would be mine. Undeterred, I went to eBay to see if any of the original copies still existed. So I thought it would be fun (and perhaps useful) to share some of the book’s advice with you all from time to time. How to Pick Your Right Girl “Keep your eyes wide open before marriage; half closed afterwards.” Sooner or later, if you are “stuck” on a girl, you arrive at the crucial indecision, “Is she the right girl for me?

QR Hobo Codes: Secret-Symbol Stencils for Digital Nomads QR Hobo Codes: Secret-Symbol Stencils for Digital Nomads Article by Urbanist, filed under Street Art & Graffiti in the Art category. This project tackles what is probably the last place anyone expect to find a digital-age intervention: the centuries-old tradition of the mobile and homeless communicating via shorthand markers, left to denote different risks and advantages to illicit living spaces. From its creators at Free Art & Technology: “These stencils can be understood as a covert markup scheme for urban spaces — providing directions, information, and warnings to digital nomads and other indigenterati. We present these as modern equivalents of the chalk-based “hobo signs” developed by 19th century vagabonds and migratory workers to cope with the difficulty of nomadic life.” (Hobo signs via Sources: Fran DeLorenzo (left),Wikipedia (right).

Portrait of an ISFJ As an ISFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you takes things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system. ISFJs live in a world that is concrete and kind. ISFJs have a rich inner world that is not usually obvious to observers. ISFJs have a very clear idea of the way things should be, which they strive to attain. ISFJs learn best by doing, rather than by reading about something in a book, or applying theory. The ISFJ has an extremely well-developed sense of space, function, and aesthetic appeal. More so than other types, ISFJs are extremely aware of their own internal feelings, as well as other people's feelings. Just as the ISFJ is not likely to express their feelings, they are also not likely to let on that they know how others are feeling. The ISFJ feels a strong sense of responsibility and duty. Growth
