    Bad Vintage Movies

    Thread made me think of the Norman Mailer book The Spooky Art.

    When in Vancouver, BC....

    Have you posted pics of your suits?

    Wanted: Opinions

    Not what I expected form a pork pie, and it suits you... probably better than what I expected would. Which of course is why you own no pork pies and why you wanted to poll. so... yeah.

    A saetey razor, a safety razor, my kingdom for a saftey razor!

    I'm not sure why you think a safety razor will be any more time consuming than a multi-razor plastic thingy. It's a matter of preference and habit. I can shave quick, or I can shave slow depending on my mood or how fast I have to get out the door. When I want real close and don't mind taking the...

    Playin' The Numbers

    I play cards and the ponies but lotteries not at all. The odds are too outrageous and there is no fun in the playing - unlike a day at the track which can be a sunny, contempaltive experience or a purely social one. For numbers lit there is nothing better than Ira Wolfert's Tucker's...

    Is Swearing a Vice?

    lol I hear you. I also blame others, for it is their fault not mine. If only people would stop trying to occupy the same universe as me. :rage:

    Is Swearing a Vice?

    Deadwood had nothing on me. Withnail & I represents the baseline for swearing in my dimension. I am trying to stop - because I don't want to accidentally let 'er rip around my young son who says everything I say ("It's panda-moan-yum.) People who know me are so used to it they are no...

    Coen Bros: No Country for Old Men

    I remember being in New York in 1982 (maybe 1983) and setting off a car alarm ... I just about jumped out of my skin. I'd never heard one before. Weren't the dreams that the TLJ character played really the summation?

    Macabre *Not For Everyone*

    Doran, I'm not asking you to abhor Witkin... far from it. Some of his work is gorgeous, and if you've only ever seen them reproduced you have to see the prints themselves which are also beautifully made objects.. manipulated, glazed and perfectly polished. My problem is with the work that...

    Weird thread. [huh]

    The Great Beer Thread

    Without going into that particular vice... this question made a lot more sense when this thread was in a holding pattern somewhere over the Golden Era forum and before the Vice forum had thrust it's way out of the ice. :eusa_doh:

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    I loves Sazerac. It makes good Sazeracs, if you can belive that. My Rye of choice at home is 40 Creek, a small batch produced Canadian product that seems to please a lot of pallettes.

    Macabre *Not For Everyone*

    Pauline Reage was the author of Story of 'O' was she not? A somewhat specious comparison. I don't easily offend, and the sex or violence depicted in works of the imagination are all fair game as far as I'm concerned - though both are often used in works without substance (or a clue) to make up...

    vintage clipart help for business cards

    Why don't you hire someone to draw the image. Say, Mr. Stovall of the Flounge. Right up his alley, I'd guess.

    The Great Beer Thread

    Just dropped in to ask that very question. Does anyone know?

    A saetey razor, a safety razor, my kingdom for a saftey razor!

    lol Did I say "kingdom"? I meant "best wishes". He loved. And he's so well-shaven now it's kind of creepy. He looks older. *Note to self: Don't mention that older thing to him.
