    What are you doing.........

    i sincerely hope i'll be asleep. :offtopic: if ever i move to a neighborhood in which people know each other, i intend to be known for something far more cantankerous. lol

    Anyone play Bridge?

    bridge isn't prohibitively (?) difficult in itself, in my opinion. it's fairly interesting (i learned to play in my constant search for recreational mathematics); may i suggest trying Bridge Base Online, if you're intrigued? http://online.bridgebase.com/ :D

    From the mind of George Lucas

    oh, my. i haven't been this near tears since...well, i don't recall, precisely, but i'm certain it involved someone in a terrifying fast food franchise mascot costume trying to hug me as a child. sweet mother of strawberry malted milkshakes...

    Handsome - nice to look at or irresistable?

    i've always taken handsome as related to impressive and dignified. the beautiful and the handsome do not exclude each other, in my opinion, but do not necessarily occur together. i've seen more handsome people who are not beautiful than i've seen handsome people who are beautiful, in my...

    Where did your user name come from??

    that's...well, that's just...only the best job title i've heard in some time. that's what it is. :D may i use it? i don't know what i'd use it for, exactly, but may i?

    What would you wear?

    well met, Mr. Jones! i will say that a man who is not comfortable in his tuxedo, not confident, and thinks he himself looks silly, is likely to actually look silly. i imagine this is true of any clothing.

    Christmas by Myself...

    ah. i hope her grandmother's health improves, then. soda and ham are not a combination i would consider of my own accord, but now i shall have to try it! i expect i'll make a mess of it, so i will try it on a very small ham... have a pleasant day!

    What's Cooking for Your Holiday Dinner?

    i have no intention of cooking at all. i have exceptionally nice neighbors, and despite the fact that i only "celebrate" holidays like Veterans' Day and Memorial Day, they are kind enough to share their elaborate holiday meals with me (and as i live in an apartment, i have several neighbors; on...

    My first suit

    very nice! but, i cannot quite make out your tie clip, young sir. it is a far nicer shade than the first picture displays. congratulations!

    What would you wear?

    :offtopic: that seems a remarkably amiable way to annoy people lol there is something to be said for following a standard, and also something for setting one, i imagine. assuming good taste and style (with which i am not gifted; i'd still ring the organizer or follow griff's advice), i...

    Wallet, Money Clip...?

    i carry a wallet in my back pocket. it is a single fold wallet, and i've converted one card pocket into a zippered change pocket. it took some time to find a nice, small zipper which wouldn't add bulk, and in the end i took one from an old glove. i think it must have been a very old glove...

    Christmas by Myself...

    i hope your wife and daughter have a safe trip, your grandmother's health (?) improves, and you have an enjoyable holiday. of curiosity, what is "Coca-Cola Ham"?

    What would you wear?

    i don't think so; i may be incorrect, but i think "pretentious" means uncalled for affectation. for example, when i think of "pretentious dress", i see with my mental eyes Sir Percy Blakeney at a prizefight (yes, i do realize the gentlemanly popularity of prizefighting, but i mean the image...
