    Algonquin Round Table

    Also, there's a good book called Bobbed Hair and Bathtub Gin: Writers Running Wild in the Twenties. It's a year by year look at the lives of Dorothy Parker, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Edna Ferber and Zelda Fitzgerald that goes from 1920 to 1930. A lot of other folks from the period show up...

    NERD ALERT!!

    Ask me that in 2009, when it finally gets answered. But seriously, do you like how Jack got all mad and was like, "Go away, don't tell me what you're doing here, I don't want to know!"

    Vintage-Inspired clothing lines

    My pleasure! I forgot to add the funniest part of my story. While I passed by the clothing section, a teensy old lady who was with her granddaughter (I'm guessing) picked up a slinky, drop waisted dress in the juniors section and proclaimed, "This looks just like what I wore in my Flapper...

    NERD ALERT!!

    Yeah, that whole episode with Carl, Kate and Sawyer was a mess. The writers are focusing more on the relationships between the characters instead of moving the plot ahead. I'm TIRED of this supposed Sawyer, Kate, Jack triangle! I really don't care who Kate picks... now that Ana Lucia is dead...

    Vintage-Inspired clothing lines

    The only place I've had trouble with about things falling apart is Forever 21, which I know people have already talked about. I call it 21 Minutes, for the amount of time it takes for their product to fall apart. I had a tank top hem completely unravel on the first washing. Anyway, it's...

    Black Snake Moan (2007)

    I read something in... People, I think it was... about Jackson's singing. He says he likes to think of himself as an Ethel Merman type vocalist :D

    Algonquin Round Table

    Ah, I didn't notice this thread til today. I love Dorothy & Co, and use one of her lines for my sig, which really goes "The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpen my tongue." There's also one from her ad work days which I didn't see here: "Brevity is the soul of...

    Vintage-Inspired clothing lines

    I was in WalMart, of all places, to pick up some lotion and bobby pins and saw these in the clothing section.... Lots of trumpet skirts, shirt-dresses, cute little chiffon dresses. Mostly in navy, but I think that dress up there also comes in red. I didn't spend a lot of time...

    NERD ALERT!!

    Yes, the couple that went down into the hatch with Locke and Co. Hopefully they've just been introduced so they can die an interesting (and plot-forwarding) death?

    NERD ALERT!!

    Those would be the ones! I love how they never interact with anyone and then when a main character returns from certain death, they're BFF and all huggy and kissy.

    You know what I'm really starting to hate on Lost? The extras.

    What's your 'couple' song

    Good thread idea! Last couples song I had was "Dear Lover" by Social Distortion, the lyrics of which are not nearly as nice as the title implies. It should have been a sign! :D

    Snoqualmie, WA - Hardware Store

    Ahhhh, you're so lucky to still have one. Don't they smell wonderful inside? I love that old antique, dusty metal smell they have. San Diego had a great one in our Gaslamp Quarter, but I guess all the people moving into the new condos didn't appreciate it, and it closed down last year. It...

    "How Could You?"

    Daisy, your post brought a tear to my eye! I'm sorry about the loss of your dalmation. I grew up with lots of animals but I've always been more of a dog lover. My sister's dog, Garbo, who I see every day and have known since she was a puppy, developed a brain tumor this year (She's an 11...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Egads, I didn't think of it that way! It's very true though what you said. I guess when I think of small town I'm still thinking "small town, USA" and it does come with that old time movie cliche of community spirit like you were talking about. But then you've got the little towns in the...

    Drool worthy items

    That IS fabulous and thanks for sharing. I think if I owned that last necklace you posted, I'd be wearing it everyday even if I was just in a white t-shirt and cuffed jeans! I love old-style settings, especially deco ones. I had a friend whose engagement ring was an antique rose gold...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hello, Siobhan! Ciamar a tha sibh? (Pretty much the limit of my Scottish, right there) ;) I wanted to say that you may be a little secluded where you are, but you couldn't ask for a more beautiful place. Hope you like FL as much as I do.
