    Spider-Man 3

    I can't wait to see it. I've read mixed reviews, but was happy to read your's Jovan. I've always been a big Sam Raimi fan and when he disappoints, it hurts my heart a little. My 7 & 5 year old nephews will no doubt hop on the Spidey-Halloween band wagon. I mean how else do you follow up last...

    Thought: Do we need to add a kitchen in here?

    I've said it before and now again: I hope for a Home & Garden section.

    advice regarding graduation dress

    w&f, that really is a lovely dress, and seems to suit your personality really well. i hate to say it but: i love the original length. that said, i can understand why you'd want it shortened. the length you are holding it up at seems spot-on for your wants. have you had a tailor/dressmaker...

    Rust stains on fabric

    Wow, thanks for this. Just found a cute 50's skirt in a vintage shop that is well priced and lovely, but I passed it up because of a few rust stains. Looks like i'm going back tomorrow.

    Help with outfit

    I love the shoes you are wearing in the photo. I think a darker or black shoe would look too pedestrian.

    Happy Drunk/Mean Drunk

    Beer & rum? Does that have a name, or can we just call it the 'Baron'...? *kidding, kidding.*

    The Black Stallion

    An all-time favorite of mine. I saw it when I was very small, when it came out, and it has had a lasting impact on me. Beautifully done. It's a film that echoes.

    What's cooking?

    Wow. Lutefisk. My Grandmother used to try to make us eat it on holidays. I remember it didn't taste badly, but the smell wasn't my favorite. :)

    What's cooking?

    Partaking of the seasonal produce too... polenta with fresh Morel mushrooms, sauteed fiddlehead ferns, english green peas & baby carrots... mmm.

    old-fashioned May Day / Beltane

    Hmm, I'm from the Mid-west, but we never did that. Though, I like the sound of it so much now that I may do it this year!

    What are you watching?

    That is too great! You are my hero(ine).

    What are you listening to?

    Lots of modern things, and lots of post-classical still, but with this weather change I'm craving some Monk, Baker, Armstrong, and Bird. Current: * Dirty Three & Low * Clint Mansell * Explosions in the Sky * Pleasure Forever (specifically the song 'Czarina') * (smog) - peel sessions *...

    Happy Drunk/Mean Drunk

    I'm really neither, but I'm for certain not a happy drunk... just sort of a Dorothy Parker drunk: quick quips and very social, and I tend to swear a bit more. However, if you ask me for the 'Truth' and my opinion about something after I've been drinking, the filter of softening the information...

    Vintage eyebrow shapes

    After reading this, I guess I have a late 40's to 50's shape to my brows, not unlike a golden-age Sherilyn Fenn's. (I have to confess ladies... I'm obsessed with my eyebrows in the way that I think they are the most important feature of any face.) One shape I've always been distracted by...

    Show us your friends and family's suits

    Wow. Thanks for sharing. That first gentleman just oozes style. Really wonderful image. Also, your Grandfather was no style-slouch. My Grandfather wore denim overalls (with tall style, mind you) everyday so I've got nothin' to share.

    Which city is best for vintage?

    CH, I was just referring to the vintage shopping there which is 1) over shopped, and 2) over priced. Yes, there is a decent vintage scene there, though it is spread out. It's a brilliant town. The architecture alone is amazing, and don't get me started on the food, and the jazz...

    What are you watching?

    Didn't you mean to say you are &@$%*&% loving it, c@!~&*$#@r?? ;) "Swedgin, Wu!" *crosses fingers* I just got caught up on the American 'The Office.' Watching 'The Brak Show' and Patrick Stewart clips on youtube. (?) Rewatching 'Angel' Seasons 1 & 2. I don't know if I could stomach...

    Don't you love this look...

    Now, I have relatively curly hair to begin with, but I can do something similar with loosely rolled pincurls that I either sleep in over night, or let set for at least 4 hours. For product I use B+B Curl Conscious, and Matrix Spiraling spray gel on damp hair. I would imagine foam rollers...

    Which city is best for vintage?

    I won't say which cities I think are best, or y'all will go shop them. ;) One thing is for sure: definitely not Chicago.

    Any stories of the unexplained?

    FYI Lee, there have been a lot of feral children documented in Texas over the decades. That might be a possibility as well. I think this site has a few cases: http://www.feralchildren.com/en/index.php
