    Are there any universally liked actors/actresses?

    Astaire drives me nuts. So does Bob Hope and Julie Andrews. Oh, and Dustin Hoffman.:cry:

    Did You Get An Allowance?

    My sister (who has two) has talked to me a lot about this. We grew up in a family where no money skills were taught to us and it did us a great disservice when we first came of age. Looking forward - should I ever have kids, it would be very important to me to teach them financial savvy. My...

    Science & Music: Amino acids transcribed into harmonic code.

    I think I like this because it draws us even closer to showing how science, nature, and biology are just art, and vice versa. The recipes for it are all linked, if not the same.

    Flowers everyone!

    Okay, so I'm not wearing them (yet), but I can't seem to get enough of photographing them this year. ...Something to look at anyway. Obviously, all photos via my junky phone-camera, but you get the jist...

    Clothes That Fight Colds

    Since 90% of viruses are transmitted by rubbing/touching your eyes, unless they start making blindfolds, these seem like threads that would best suit the Julianne Moore in 'Safe' type.

    Older women with younger men and VICE-VERSA!

    I've dated men 15 years older, some 6 years younger, and a few just my age. In all cases it turned out that ultimately their age meant very little, and who they were as a person and the quality of their core-character was indeed, paramount.

    Chicago area vintage sources

    Oh yes, the goods are there, but about three-four times what you would normally pay anywhere else, at least for women's. Which is odd too, because the vintage scene there isn't really that deep or well organized... must just be a lot of Lincoln Park Trixies wanting to shop off North Avenue now...

    Any Cigar Afficionados Out There?

    I gave Cacklewack a S?©ijas for his birthday. He seemed happy enough with it. I haven't smoked one before. I haven't been out there. Field trip!

    Any Cigar Afficionados Out There?

    anon': did you hit the downtown Rich's? That's the only one I haven't tried - I hit the satellites first. I'm hoping that being larger and having a larger inventory it will result in success, but I'm not holding my breath. I know that Arturo Fuente - Viejo is super, super rare, but I'm tired of...

    Chicago area vintage sources

    Honestly, Chicago proper is dreadfully over shopped/over priced. I almost never bought anything within city limits. Usually the outlying suburbs had some good finds -- especially the older river towns like Elgin, St. Charles, and Geneva. And way out in Galena. Lake County too. Or head over into...

    Any Cigar Afficionados Out There?

    Here's what I've been looking for lately and have yet to find (at least in these parts): * Rocky Patel - Vintage * Tatuaje * La Flor Dominicana * Arturo Fuente - Viejo Had a Rocky Patel 'The Edge' the other night. Eh. It was fine enough but not remarkable to me. Easy, medium body, a...

    Restaurant style...

    If I hired you as a host and you wore shirt sleeves and a tie (and were halfway decent at your job), I'd give you a raise sooner than someone else for the sheer reason that I'd believe you respected the position and establishment.

    Opinions on H&M cotton khaki suit

    SVB- I like that your slimness is accentuated, but that's me. My concern is more with the color. The one on the model looks far lighter and your's seems to be a true taupe, which I'm sorry to say I don't think flatters you the best. I think it's a nice idea and if you need just a basic...

    What do you look like?

    Holy-moly spitfire, that's a great photo. Excellent of your parents to have the foresight to put a lid on your head! And I'm willing to bet that the mischevious look in your eyes ensures that you were a handful for them.
