The image is a vintage poster featuring the iconic "Spirit of St. Louis" airplane in flight above a globe, with various world landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty and Eiffel Tower depicted below it on land masses representing different continents. The top portion reads "World's Greatest FLYER," while beneath that are two pricing tags stating "5¢ CIGAR 5¢." Atop these prices is an exclamation mark, emphasizing the affordability or value offered by a product or service not directly shown in the image but suggested through this advertisement format.

The poster serves as both promotional and commemorative material for Charles Lindbergh's famous transatlantic flight from New York to Paris aboard "Spirit of St. Louis" during that time period (circa 1930-40). The design employs a limited color palette with shades of blue, white, and touches of red, capturing the era's aesthetic sensibilities.

This poster is part of a larger collection related to Charles Lindbergh or aviation history in general.

Well today will be boring

Not working as they cancelled my shift, but honestly I was likely to do that as the forecast became clear, the original low was 16°F, its currently 19° feels like 4°, and my normal load time is about one hour ago. Yeah, while I might do some work #today , no package route for me, no way I'm trying to work for 6+ hours in this nonsense. And to think the high yesterday was in the 60's, maybe higher, typical St Louis winter.

Not sure what I'll do with m'self, cleaned out the closet finally yesterday, most of Vik's ( @lirleni ) clothes are boxed up to donate with the exception of a few things that I added to my wardrobe and a few special items to sell. Fri? Sat? Whichever, I finalized the conversion project of his 401K to an inherited IRA in my main account. Bills were paid yesterday, including county, well, property tax, for some reason they're showing me as not owing any personal property tax for some reason, I do need to sort that out.

I will be continuing to clean out my emails, we're under 1K messages and started at over 2K, mostly stuff that should've been deleted, but I was being lazy. Need to do some last comic and book pulls, and then figure out who to sell most of the collection to. Have lots of stuff to pack and send, but its cold, so that'll prolly wait until I man up and go outside. Will prolly move my car back to its usual spot in front of the gate, moved it so the room mate could get his truck out now that its running again, he blew up the transmission and had to install a new one which took 6 weeks or so, unusually fast for him, as he was doing other work at the same time, plus he's not as good as he thinks he is on repair work.

Anyone know a good charity in #STL to donate clothing too? Lots of men's clothes, but I also have a fair number of totes in the shed of women's clothing and shoes that should still be in good shape.

@nix In other words, pretty typical #stlouis #weather.

St. Louis' "Feels Like" goes from a high of 73 to a low of -1 today. (That's 23 to -18 in Celsius). The real temp is 74 to 14 (23 to -10). It's like the weather checked its calendar and went "oh shit".

High of 72° F in St Louis, Missouri, this late December morning ... forcast to plunge to 17° F by midnight. Shorts to second-layers in 12 hours. Anyway, my parents don't think climate change is real 🙃 #climatechange #StLouis #weather #midwest

Hintergrund | DLF: US-Migrationspolitik - In St. Louis wird Zuwanderung dringend gewünscht

In St. Louis sind viele Häuser und Fabrikgebäude verfallen, ganze Straßenzüge stehen leer. In den letzten 70 Jahren hat die US-Großstadt am Mississippi fast 500.000 Einwohner verloren. Nun versucht sie neue Bürger anzulocken, auch aus dem Ausland.

Audio: Web | MP4

Meine Meinung: Schön zu sehen das es bei all den Horrornachrichten aus den USA auch Positives gibt.

Melissa and I decided to take full advantage of this strange December weather. It's currently in the low 70s here in St Louis and we went walking in the Botanical Garden. I thought I'd share some pictures from along the way.

Hopefully everyone survived Christmas. We've already taken the tree and decorations down here. Always moving forward with Melissa.

Have a wonderful Friday evening! 🌆

The image is a color transparency photograph measuring approximately 4 x 5 inches. It features an individual with reddish-brown hair styled in soft waves, wearing a grey sweater. The person has a warm and inviting smile, showing white teeth against bright red lipstick. Their eyes are light-colored and appear expressive as they gaze slightly off to the side.

The background is neutral, providing no distractions from the subject. A notable feature of this photograph is that it appears aged with some wear on its edges, indicating it may be a vintage item or styled to resemble an older piece. There's also text printed at the top and bottom along the border which suggests metadata related to the photo collection.

The overall mood conveyed by the image seems nostalgic yet elegant. The attire of the subject combined with their polished look gives off a sense of style that was popular in mid-20th century fashion, possibly alluding to the 1947 date mentioned in associated information.
