    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    YEAH, BUT I'M NOT. A grim Thyestean feast.

    It needs to be read by those uncritically adulatory of the Boomers in particular.

    Gray suede hush puppies

    Thanks for the advice ... I don't know if I should bother posting a photo, though. They're just plain old hush puppies.

    Let's Talk About The Fedora Lounge

    Whoops, I've been guilty of posting some silly things. And "oversharing." I'll try to rein it in. The bottom line for all of this is clear: time. The bartenders have enough stuff to do without having to deal with too many crazy threads. There just aren't enough hours in the day. If everyone...

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    Go to Haight Street in SF. These people are in their late 40s, still "alternative," speaking in teen-talk, living for live rockandroll shows, living in crappy apartments, drinking beer at bars every single night, working in a record store or other retail job -- they never shave, they will never...

    Gray suede hush puppies

    With what does one wear gray suede hush puppies? I won a pair on Ebay a while ago. They are lace-up, not slip-on. I have worn them with blue jeans and that's about it. With what else does a man wear them?

    California Wines

    Exactly. I am wondering if Primitivo will enjoy a renaissance. It does seem that the zinfandel works very very well for california soil indeed. The heat? The minerals? I went to the Ravenswood winery in 1999 and had the clearest lesson in terroir of all time. We tasted many Ravenswoods and one...

    Does your partner ever point out your style idiosynchracies?

    Genius!

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    Slouch, v. nice and well-worded. As for this: I just don't understand why people say stupid things to strangers. Where I come from, we were taught not to antagonize strangers. You could get hit. Do you go up to a black man and say "What up, Shaft. Gimme five"? Never in a thousand years...

    Where am I going to wear a black suit?

    I often wear a black SB suit with shiny dark purple shirt. That pops.

    Your Favorite Sandwiches?

    This morning, I wanted peanut butter but we were out. So this is what I did: I roasted some raw peanuts we had, then put them in our food processor and added vegetable oil and salt. Came out pretty good, but a little burned.

    SELF-TAILORING FOR THE WILLING GENTLEMAN.

    Well, I just did one cuff on some pants. Here were the original problems: 1. The pants were about half an inch too short. 2. The cuff was only about 1.25 inches tops, and I wanted a wider cuff. I ideally wanted 2 inches, but there was not enough cloth. So here is what I did. 1. I...

    Bookster Three Piece Tweed

    Michael, I think the color looks very handsome on you. Perhaps you should accept the possibility that all of us are correct that this is a good color on you!

    Scotch 101

    LD, I would advise against bothering with blends. Get to know single malts first. Get to know the differences between them. Next time you are up, I will taste you on a few. At the moment I have a Glenmorangie 10 year, a Glenmorangie 12 year barrelled in burgundy cascs, and a 35 year Glen Keith...

    SELF-TAILORING FOR THE WILLING GENTLEMAN.

    I will try to find these books ... I was unaware of their existence. THIS, my dear, is the bestial level of my knowledge of these matters.

    Scotch 101

    I first started drinking Scotch when I wanted a whiskey that was more challenging than what I had been drinking, which was Bush Mills Irish Whisky. This was about 12 years ago. I started with Oban. I have seen this in the price range you specify. I still dearly love Oban. It was my beginner, and...

    We'll be there at 7. Or we can come earlier for drinks if you like ... Note I'm about to eat a baby sandwich to the left.
