The cost of the curse of Sleeping Beauty is a subject that has been widely discussed and debated over the years. This classic fairy tale, popularized by the Brothers Grimm, tells the story of a young princess who is cursed to sleep for a hundred years until she is awakened by a true love's kiss. While the story is often seen as a romantic and magical tale, it also raises questions about the consequences and costs associated with the curse. One of the main costs of the curse is the toll it takes on Sleeping Beauty herself. Sleeping for a hundred years means that she misses out on her youth, her family, and the world around her. This extended sleep can be seen as a form of punishment, isolating her from everything and everyone she knows and loves.

The ONLY reference that connects designer Raymond Loewy with the Sears Waterwitch outboard is a recently published book covering the antique outboard hobby and here the author cites a 1980 s glitzy magazine article on American style that linked famed industrial designer Raymond Loewy with a certain Waterwitch model. The company built high quality automobiles, hearses, trucks, taxicabs and utility vehicles until the Great Depression forced Kissel to file for receivership in November of 1930.
This extended sleep can be seen as a form of punishment, isolating her from everything and everyone she knows and loves. Furthermore, Sleeping Beauty must also come to terms with the fact that she has been asleep for so long, which can lead to feelings of confusion, disorientation, and even a sense of loss. Another cost of the curse is the impact it has on the people around Sleeping Beauty.
Why Don’t You Come Up Sometime And See This Outboard?
Is that an outboard in your pocket? Okay okay, guess what today is about. A Mae West outboard on eBay! Now I have to admit, I knew some of Mae Wests quotes, but as I was prepping this story. WOW, she was fantastic and had some amazing lines. Genus,!
The Waterwitch or “Mae West” as it was often called referring to the actress ample curves was Sears & Roebucks brand name outboard motor. The first Water Witch went on sale in their 1933 catalog.
The seller knows his or her stuff and I am not sure how fast it can move that chair across the lake. But who cares, This is purely about the art of it all and would look amazing on the back of a perfect boat.
YOU CAN SEE IT HERE ON eBay
And for those who don’t know Mae West. Enjoy the lines!

10 replies m-fine says:We have all seen the outboard on an inverted table trick, but I am a little skeptical about how well the chair is going to work. I think they need to strap some skis to it.
Rick says:The motor is beautiful but her comments are priceless, definitely some I hadn’t heard before. Between yesterday’s commercial video and today’s clip WoodyBoater is doing right by the cinema arts.
Eric says: Its in Deltaville. Close enough to take a look! John R needs to get it- Roberta says: They would have sold a lot more if they used her in the ads.lol Moosemeat says:Matt, they left out the one where she’s dropping off her coat at a nightclub, and the hatcheck girl sees her jewelry and says, “Goodness what diamonds!”
Mae responds, “Goodness had nothing to do with it, honey.”
An outboard! Let’s not forgot that 90% of recreational power boats made were powered with an outboard. And as you can see, they have a style all their own, all out in the open for everyone to see. No wonder there is also an Antique Outboard Motor Club International. Inboards are great, but there is a whole other world out there with Antique and Classic outboards.
thomas d says:I have one that I will take half what his starting bid is and throw in fast free shipping plus senior discount.

Her family and friends must continue to live their lives while she remains in an enchanted slumber, creating a sense of sadness and longing. Additionally, the kingdom in which Sleeping Beauty resides also suffers as a result of the curse. Trade and commerce may decline, and the overall morale of the kingdom could be affected by the absence of their beloved princess. There is also a moral cost associated with the curse. The curse highlights the potential consequences of making impulsive choices without considering the long-term effects. For example, in the original story, the curse is cast as a result of the king and queen's failure to invite an evil fairy to their daughter's christening. This act of exclusion leads to a vengeful curse that affects not only the princess but also the entire kingdom. This serves as a cautionary tale about the importance of inclusivity and the potential cost of excluding others. In conclusion, the cost of the curse of Sleeping Beauty extends beyond just the princess herself. It affects her personally, as well as her family, friends, and the kingdom as a whole. Furthermore, it serves as a reminder of the consequences that can arise from impulsive decisions and the importance of considering the potential costs before acting. The curse of Sleeping Beauty is not simply a romantic fairy tale; it raises important questions about the price we are willing to pay for our choices and actions..
