    Top Baby Names from 20's thru 40's

    :eusa_clap One of my chums is a midwife and told me of a rather young couple that named their baby.......Burberry :eek: Even more shocking was that when the boyfriend visited the mother in hospital he said their friends wanted to know if she'd be back at school, after half term. :( (They...

    Am I truly a "Golden Era" guy?

    Aww you should have asked - I'd have removed it sooner. I'm sorry if it offended you; it was supposed to be amusing. I thought it was ;) So, anything else? :D

    Time Wounds All Heels...

    Gosh Lizzie, I hope you didn't injure yourself. :( The scene; I was 14 -y'know, just the age where any embarrassment is like a slow death. I was dressed head to toe in black (no surprises there!); black wiggle skirt and blouse, black FFs and the most divine pair of vintage 50s stilettos...

    Am I truly a "Golden Era" guy?

    [huh] Richard Cheese is a lounge singer - he does lounge versions of popular songs. Hayseed Dixie, as mentioned, do AC/DC covers in a bluegrass fashion and the Puppini Sisters might be called the modern day Andrews Sisters, doing swing versions of pop songs. In what way is any of that...

    Free Hug Campaign

    That's what struck me too - the fact that everyone came to him...or whoever had the sign. They chose to be hugged, not had it forced or coerced. And the toothpaste thing? Reminds me of rabid dogs! lol

    Free Hug Campaign

    He got a real kick out of it. Both from the POV of seeing people's reactions (pretty much the same as the hugging) and seeing them smile. He's a really lovely person (although I suspect the people he arrests don't think so!), and this was just another example of his fab nature. Sounds...

    Top Baby Names from 20's thru 40's

    Slightly off topic but has anyone here read Freakonomics by Levitt & Dubner? There's a very interesting section on popular babies' names througout different eras and how what you name your child can affect it later in life. I'd recommend anyone considering one of the more popular 'fashion' names...

    transfats

    Agreed. Denial's for wimps anyway! lol So speaketh the voice of reason! There is nothing like a large plate of fettucini, tossed in some excellent olive oil and freshly ground black pepper, served with fresh avocado and a crisp green salad. Heaven! :D

    Free Hug Campaign

    Aww I got very goosebumpy watching/reading that. How wonderful. There was a guy on Venice Beach giving out free hugs when I was there. (I loved VB) We need more hugs! One of my friends bought two dozen red roses and randomly gave them out to strangers in London! Where are you giving the...

    Read Hitler's Lips

    I wasn't implying you had any empathy - please forgive me if that's how I came across. I find the whole notion of how he got to where he was quite fascinating and I'd like to know more. I think because I find it impossible to get into that kind of mindset, I'm curious as to how anyone, let alone...

    Read Hitler's Lips

    I hear what you're saying Elaina - he must have had a certain amount of charm and persuasion or he wouldn't have got as far as he did. Have you seen Downfall? It's very good and one of those rare films where I really felt I got to know some more about the person but still felt absolutely no...

    Am I truly a "Golden Era" guy?

    Holiday in Cambodia is BRILLIANT! And I love 'She F'ing Hates Me' too. In fact, there's not much of his stuff I don't like.
