    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Saw "(500) Days of Summer" in Pasadena yesterday, great movie. Had some wonderful architectural views of Los Angeles, as well as some relationship themes that seem awfully familiar to me in light of recent events in my own life! In fact, had I seen it during times of that recent past, it might...

    Is this suit "vintage" enough?

    So there I am in Hobo's the other day, and here's this suit. It looks nice enough, and surprise, it's my size even! What the hell, can't beat the price. :)

    I finally took the plunge...

    ...and bought something "vintage". Of course, I wind up buying a couple of overcoats in the middle of summer! :rolleyes: C'est la vie, it'll be cold again soon enough. The real irony is that the last woman I was with kept trying in vain to interest me in "vintage" attire. It wasn't so much...

    Harold Lloyd fans?

    Harold's by far my favorite! Chaplin's a fine star, but I've always considered him overrated. My favorite film of Harold's is "Girl Shy", it has the best chase sequence EVER. What really made Harold's "The Boy" role so successful though is that he was the "everyman" character that people...
