    Rugged Smartphone Holster

    Heads up on the Otterbox Defender: There's an issue in which, over time, the rubber outer cse becomes floppy, loose, and can tear. I finally removed mine and have a less protective, but tight fitting case. Mine lasted about eight months. Another heads up: If you get one, go to Amazon. $20 vs...

    Graffiti on a church.

    Woah, kids. This is getting pretty far afield.

    Lincoln, or Les Miserables?

    Both pictures are about eras that are outside our focus, but in both cases, the presentation of their era is quite striking. Film has come a long way - when it wants to be good, and when the budget is nearly limitless. I saw each picture twice. Thank goodness I don't have to decide on who...

    Vintage Desk Help

    The finish, color, and most especially, the legs, all say 1970's to me. The chair is also. Of the two, I'd choose the second. They're common enough that a bright, crisp new finish won't matter in terms of value, and it'd look sharp with an office chair on wheels, the right desk lamp, phone, etc.

    Vintage Desk Help

    #1 is likely a 1970's model. #2 is, as Lizzie pointed out, a schoolteacher's desk and might have been made anytime during much of the 20th century. If it were me.... I'd keep looking. :)

    1938: Advice to Theatre Managers

    Last week I caught the final Twilight film at the second-run movie house nearby. It has been there since the thirties. When I got up, my shoes were so stuck to the floor that my feet pulled right out of them! And my date's description of the ladies' room was less than savory. But worth it to...

    Recasting " The Thin Man" Article

    I'd honestly like to see Depp retire. Overexposed and in everything. Also Robert Downey Jr., and for heaven's sake give DeCaprio a rest.

    Depressed by the modern world

    I am an enormous fan of vintage automobiles. I love driving them and wish I had one to drive whenever I could. And I don't want to hijack this thread with yet another Guys & Cars discussion. Through a very great and lucky set of circumstances, I've been driving a 2012 Chevrolet Cruz. It is the...

    DE shaving issues

    I find that my face needs time to adjust to any new shaving method. A week or two. First week and I look like a bloodied self-sacrifice. Then it levels out. I've been using the same batch of 100 Derby blades since 2005. They are excellent - for me. Good luck, and don't give up.

    Unbroken Being Developed Into Movie

    Personally, I hope someone else is cast. I'd like to hear the dialog! Bale is the Poster Child for the "whisper and jaw clench" school of acting.
