  1. I was at a restaurant on Saturday with GPop and Son. We saw an older woman with a hairdo that was magnificent. I'll bet she was using HUMP brand hair pins.

  4. I actually have a package of these. They were in with my mother-in-law's things. Now I have a date to put with them. I'm guessing they would have been her older sister's or even her mother's.
