    Love at first sight? What Balloney!!...or, does it really happen?

    As one who has carried the torch for the same girl for seven years, though I barely know her, I can say that it is possible to feel a very strong attraction at first sight. Or at least, for the first time you "see" them if you know what I mean.

    Hat Comedy

    In the Three Stooges episode "Disorder in the Court," Curly was called forward to testify, while wearing a derby and carrying an umbrella. After an agonizingly funny minute or so of him trying to figure out how to take off his hat and raise an empty hand for the oath at the same time, he got...

    Sartorial Objections

    Something I've always hated is the untucked polo shirt/sport coat combination worn with blue jeans and tennis shoes. Or when people where a tie with an untucked shirt and jeans. And what I really dislike is when waiters at restaurants have to tuck their shirts in, but their pants still hang...

    My Favorite Years.

    What I love most about it, aside from what everyone else has said, is the sense of all-around propriety that men and women were expected to hold up. The kids weren't raised to dress like ghetto rappers the way they are today, and dressing appropriately for occasions was expected.

    The Third Man on TCM

    I saw The Third Man for the first time fairly recently compared to most of you, after it was recommended to me by Hemingway. I'm in his debt for it, wonderful film! As an obsessive photographer, I loved the composition of the scenes. Each frame was a work of dramatic art, topped only by the...

    Thigh Allowance.

    I'd like to hear about this too, I have a 33" waist and 25" thighs from martial arts. It gives me a devil of a time finding decent dress pants.

    How to give a pill to a cat

    Shelley, I could have gone the rest of my life without hearing it put that way...:eusa_doh: ;) And as a cat liver, I mean lover, or at the least, owner, I enjoyed this thread.

    Look out! Coming soon to a city near you....hopefully

    That is one restaurant where I would not feel embarrased to be a waiter! Wow! If only there was one within immediate driving distance.

    Conversation: A Lost Art

    I'm another who won't talk to too many people for this reason. I'm blessed enough to have about five friends that can have good conversations, but the rest are unable to get past the insipid garage band they formed. It definitely makes me crazy, and makes me want to go to a Lounge event all...

    Connery's "Allan Quatermain" Vest

    That looks great; I might get one of those before I head out to Africa.

    The Elephant in the Room - Man Purse

    To avoid the connotation of "man purse," I carry my "bag," (and that's all that I call it,) with me only when I'm carrying books or writing materials. Or, as the case was last Sunday, a keyboard pedal I loaned to a friend. My bag isn't very attractive or stylish, but it is functional for my...

    Wearing a fez

    I always thought that one wore a fez with a smoking jacket. I've never seen anyone but an Arab who could make it look natural in any other setting.

    Men who can cook.

    I cook fairly often, though generally not too fancy. But I do enjoy it.

    Entrances and Exits

    I'm no expert as to the best, but as far as entrances go, let's not forget Errol Flynn busting into Claude Raines' court with a deer on his back in the Adventures of Robin Hood.

    What Are You Reading

    Thanks for the link; I'll give it a look-see. I've been to sites like that, but not so diverse. After I started reading the Last of the Mohicans, I began to put the film adaptation on my Netflix queue, but after reading the synopsis and seeing the trailer, I'm in agreement with you; terrible...

    Tie Space

    I agree. The look of a tie knot floating around inside a wide space makes it look like it was tied in a hurry and not checked in a mirror.

    From the mind of George Lucas

    George has even defiled Monty Python! :eek: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leEsz9ci5XE In all seriousness though, I'm disappointed at how apathetic he has become when it comes to quality. He was once an amazing storyteller; now he runs a franchise.

    What Are You Reading

    Right now I'm working through quite a few books: The Last of the Mohicans, by James Fenimore Cooper For Whom the Bell Tolls, by Ernest Hemingway Digging for the Truth, by Josh Bernstein The Man in the Iron Mask, by Alexandre Dumas Coupled with my history and science textbooks, I stay...
