    Does Anyone Have Lint Removal Tips??

    Similarly, my Mom once tried to vacuum the dog. You can imagine.

    What Are You Reading

    This is the first time I've spent with Ellison. As a writer, I'm so careful about what I read because I know, a) it will effect my own voice and b) there are so many books, and so little reading time. So far, it's riveting; beyond impressive. I love it when a book/writer explodes my whole...

    What are you wearing today??

    What I'm wearing today is somewhat less glamorous: cotton print nightgown and purple, quilted, velvet 40's robe. If I go down stairs to get coffee, there will be rabbit slippers involved, so I won't be joining the thread, though it sounds like a wild one.

    What are you wearing today??

    Here's what I'm wearing today. I'm happy with it because I threw it together so quickly after getting called in to work. Would you buy wine from me? Okay, but expensive wine?? It reminds me a bit of GOK, who, well, always with the tall style. Cheers all! Have a great night. & closer!

    Martin Scorsese in summer clothing (pic)...

    Oh I see. I felt badly because I didn't realize this is in 'hats' until just now. ...I'll stop my impassioned diatribe about white socks now.

    I'm sorry, I thought we were discussing his summer outfit.

    Favourite Scents

    Honestly, I remember it not lasting as long as I would have hoped... very subtle, but richly smelling stuff. Do you have a Saks or Neiman's by you? I bet that they would sell it and you could try a bunch before committing to buy.

    Martin Scorsese in summer clothing (pic)...

    Tomasso, that sounds absolutely striking. And it's exactly what I'm talking about: beautiful, quality, white socks, and the confidence and fashion navigation to use them. A man that can rock those -- really sell it and make it their own -- is someone whose style has me captivated in the best...

    Show us your most precious vintage item .

    Tough to narrow, but one would be the dress I'm wearing in my avatar. It's a 40's ivory crepe column, floor length, with two, capped maribou sleeves, severely bateau-ed neck, and scoop back. If an occasion would arise where I should find myself being married *cough*, this is the dress. (Which is...

    Favourite Scents

    Lady Stardust, I've used samples of their stuff before, I recall 'tuberose' most readily, and it was AMAZING. I sold it when I worked at Barney's, so samples prevented me from buying it, though I've considered it recently because it is such great, quality product. Ladies, it has happened...

    What Are You Reading

    About 50 pages into Ralph Ellison's 'Invisible Man.' It's incredible.

    Bring back dating?

    A fact that stood as of a few years ago, I haven't researched it lately: Women commit adultery about as much as men, but tend to be more private/careful about it (as each gender tends to commit the act for different reasons), so it's less commonly considered in the public psyche. So, that is...

    IMO, white socks are always best. It takes a gent with a command of style to rock them.

    Strange questions about your town

    Exactly. and don't forget Long John Wentworth & Mr. Burnham! You mean those from NOLA don't spend their days eating Beignets and standing on the streets listening to musicians?!? Surprising.

    Strange questions about your town

    I haven't lived here long enough to get the silly questions. But when I speak of my hometown, Chicago, the first thing people inevitably ask is: "Is it really that windy?" And then I explain that it "didn't get the name because of the weather, but because of pomposity arrogance... you...

    Your signature cocktail.

    Ahem... those are pointy fries, I'll have you know. I've always wanted to be an Old Fashioned drinker, just haven't gotten around to it. Everyone really seems to have a particular signature cocktail, which is very neat to see. I tend to change my cocktails with the seasons. A Winter...

    Your signature cocktail.

    CanadaDoll, That wine is made by a well known producer, Henri Bonneau. It is approx 80% Grenache, 20% Cinsault depending on the vintage. Given that, if you'd like some other wine recommends, I would try other Southern French Rhone blends which are generally predominantly Grenache including...

    Your signature cocktail.

    Being in the wine/liquor business, it all kind of gets demystified eventually. I go through cycles, but more and more I drink classic things, or certain liquors neat. And I never get tired of a Ketel Martini up with two olives. But, if any beverage is associated with me personally, it would...

    Your favorite Scotch? Your Favorite liquor in general?

    Heh. So scratch off "Apple Pucker" and add on "Elijah Craig"? Good call! And I'm wrong about Buffalo Trace- - no 18 yr for them, but Van Winkle's Family Reserve Park Ave. is 18.
