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

    Cheers! I did end up buying a vintage razor from my favourite vintage shop in town. The giftee, however, is not much of a vintage guy. Hope he can handle it.

    David Lynch (Spoilers)

    Was Big Night no longer available at your video store? Okay, dragging your best gal is one thing, but, really, did you have to do that to your poor mom? :eusa_doh:

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

    Frustrated after gift -hunting for a decent, butterfly-style safety razor for a friend... all the shops now have are razors that look like safety razors of yore but that take the dozen-bladed, plastic do-thingy blades that go on those razors with really sad little, churched-up, juvenile...

    Caps: leather sweatbands?

    I'll kick in to agree that fit is more important than material where comfort is concerned. My caps have grosgrain, poly-something-whosis, leather and suede sweats. None but the poly causes me to sweat or itch. I have no problem with the suede, though they did make my hair go all pineapple-like...

    Britain's Lost Cities

    That's some good news. Newwcastle has also undergone some restoration and development and was, when I last visited, looking very spruce. When I lived in England I had to make many visits to Croyden. That place is a disgrace to urban planning, to architecture and to the gift of vivion, by...

    Curtains for the Necktie?

    The Lords hat

    I don't know why one hat would be more suitable than another for FL members who are church ministers, but I can say thank-you for drawing this to my attention. I love the lords hat and have two, though neither one fits me. (Note: when buying on OFAS, size like a homburg, one up.) I should...

    TV series set in the Golden Age

    I thought Larry Gelbart had something to do with it, no? Also, what's the quality of the discs? If good... what/who is the source. :D

    McCartney's 3-Piece and the 2nd death of the 3-button

    He also appears to be looking for his heart.

    Did you attend a college or university?

    I don't know how different things are in the US, but here you would certainly be allowed to teach in your field of expertise - the book alone qualifying you as a "specialist". Where you would run into trouble is gaining a full professorship for which you would need the credentials. Most post...

    McCartney's 3-Piece and the 2nd death of the 3-button

    Phew, thanks for clearing that up. I couldn't get the Dada thing out of my head and even Google didn't help. (Then I started humming AM Radio by Hugo Race.) Now, are you seeing these little green sea-horse thingies too, or should I still worry?

    McCartney's 3-Piece and the 2nd death of the 3-button

    :offtopic: Mr. Senator, I don't want to sound like a monkey, but you've referred to Hugo Ball a few times, and I don't know who he is (apart from the dadaist); I'm interested in your semiology of buttons, for reasons almost entirely outside of the interests of the FL, and in other unmapped...

    Famous London Savoy Hotel sells off many of its memorabilia and fixtures!!

    "stylish" meaning "trendy", right. Square chairs and neutral tones, little bowls of pebbles on the table... and then in three years, oops, that's no longer the style. Every hotel bar but two in my sad little city has been vandalized by designers updating the image from classic to...
