    Westerns for people who don't like Westerns

    Personally, I can't stand westerns...except for... A Fist Full of Dollars For a Few Dollars More The Good, The Bad and the Ugly High Plains Drifter Hang 'Em High Pale Rider You can probably see the pattern there.

    Colonial Clothing....political?

    Eh, I try to avoid controversial talk on the FL because it doesn't really hold my interest. I have the guilty pleasure of looking at locked threads like car wrecks, but not like shark tanks awaiting bloody bait. I'm merely a guest on this board and as such I have no qualms allowing the...

    Birthdays

    My birthday was yesterday and it was akin to so many of my past birthdays. In short, I live in Iowa where 12/11 is consitently cold, icy, snowy, gray and miserable. As a rule, my friends don't want to leave the house - for anything (think John Goodman in The Big Lebowski with "Shomer Shabbas!")...

    Man Bites Dog

    You know, I've had a feeling that rape scene was supposed to actually push the veiwer into the uncomfortable, just as you said, but I still disliked it. And I totally admit, I'm sure that's what the director intended and I applaud the film in that regard. But I still hated it. Great movie...

    David Lynch (Spoilers)

    Heck, I liked Lost Highway honestly... Am I the only one?

    Man Bites Dog

    I must say, I really enjoyed this movie and I would have put it on my list of favorites if it were not for the rape scene. I won't go into detail about that, I just felt that it could have been left out and the film would have remained brutal and convincing. Please don't get me wrong, I accept...

    Man Bites Dog

    Has anyone ever seen this French mockumentary? If so, what are your thoughts on this film. Personally, it's still ringing in my head even after having seen it a month ago. I would like to comment on some scenes but I'd like to know who's seen it first.

    APOCALYPTO

    Personally, I enjoyed Apocolypto very much. I realize some of it may be inaccurate, but I'm still happy with the results. I enjoy Gibson films. I liked Braveheart, the Passion and this film. I guess it's a guilty pleasure.[huh]

    David Lynch (Spoilers)

    I must say David Lynch has always been one of my favorite directors. I think The Elephant Man is great and I must say Blue Velvet is one of my favorite movies from my teenage years (when I first saw it). I really enjoy Lynch's perspective, his use of awkward and disturbing dialogue and his...

    Strike Up A Conversation

    Hep and Reet, if I'm not mistaken, you both are correct and quite in-line with what the book suggests. Or in other words, "Don't fake it!" and, "Be yourself!" among other things. I know those aren't expressly written out in the text (although, it seems that there was plenty of material...

    Hot Topic

    I think I know to which hats you are referring but I assure you, the ones I saw were wide brimmed (2 1/4-1/2"), classic style hats.

    Hot Topic

    I'm not a frequent shopper or customer of the apparel store Hot Topic. If you're not familiar with this store, it's full of pre-teen to young adult themed clothing, patches, toys, band t-shirts, cds and accessories; mainly skirting the "Goth" look popularized in the last ten years. For example...

    For Those Caucus Goers!

    If you plan on attending the Caucus in Des Moines, I have an article for you pulled from The Des Moines Register that gives names of a few good restaurants to visit as well as some events. I'd be happy to give details and/or reviews of these places, or any of our restaurants, if you plan to...

    What are your sartorial guilty pleasures?

    I'm comfortable with the many facets of my personality so I can't quite think of something I wear that is contrary to 'cool'. I will say that I occasionally wear things that I wouldn't want my grandmother to see me in...although, I wouldn't care THAT much if she did. I guess I'm fairly...

    Slow cooking

    You know, I just used it Saturday night for a roast I ate Sunday. I don't know how big your crock pot is so I won't give any specific numbers. Anyway, I just fudge it all anyway. Get some beef broth and a roast (rump roast, eye of round, chuck, whatever you like) place the raw roast into the...

    Flexiroll lapels

    I don't know who your cleaners were and I won't type the name in fear that it was purposely changed by a bartender, but if it's who I think it is, they have a nasty habit of writing my last name - *IN PERMANENT BLACK MARKER* - on the inside of my nice shirts. I really don't care for their...

    Winter Moody Blues?

    I know I have the worst times of my life in the winter. I try very hard to be positive but I've had three break-ups of serious relationships in January, I was homeless once in January as well, I've had to move three times in Winter, and any time I've ever been more than just "down" as in, really...
