    Tailor Made

    I once purchased a bespoke suit. Alas, it was too loud and opinionated, so I left it in the closet, and it hung itself.

    Old sayings, which make no sense?

    Perhaps they made sense, or, perhaps not. Things we were told as children. Eat your vegetables, there are children starving in (name the country). If you don’t quit making that face, it’ll freeze like that. Don’t go in the water for 20 minutes after eating. Look at me when I’m talking to you...

    "The Big Sleep" by Raymond Chandler. I've watched the movie countless times and read the book. And, I still can't figure it out. Bogie, in his raincoat, fedora, and driving that old Ford is who and where I want to be.
