    Why is the Bum Look Popular? (formally the unemployed look)

    . Normally I agree with much that you post but I have to say this not one of your better examples. Professor Jones WAS scruffy when on adventures but that is not how he dressed for everyday life. This is how Doctor Jones dressed for work:

    Why is the Bum Look Popular? (formally the unemployed look)

    My EYES!!!! That avatar is way too freaky for this early in the morning, Lear....and it is to early for me to have a proper drink to help me with the trauma. ....and I can't remember one word that you wrote. Where's that "hooch in your coffee" thread when you need it?

    The Aviation Cocktail

    . Tonight's experiment was the recipe above minus the lemon juice. It was much better. Perhaps I am not a lemon juice fan because I don't know why someone would make the drink that sour....much less the Trader Vic formula that calls for more lemon juice than gin!!! I may still try...

    Show Us Your OVERCOATS

    . Great looking coats guys. Mike, take a photo out doors so that we can see it better. The close-up of the fabric looks wonderful!

    The Aviation Cocktail

    . Good point. I forgot that not all lemons are created equal. You may have discovered the variation that is throwing the mix off.

    The Aviation Cocktail

    . A local mixologist and I played with the new additions to my liquid arsenal. Following the 1916 recipe makes the drink too tart. My guess is the lemon juice she uses is too potent. She added a bit of sugar syrup which balanced the taste. I don't have much experience with lemon juice. Do you...

    The Aviation Cocktail

    . I now am the proud owner of all the ingredients for an Aviation cocktail. The lemon juice needs to be added lightly. Creme da violette is wonderful!

    Why is the Bum Look Popular? (formally the unemployed look)

    . You really need to reread my original post. I am making an observation. You are complaining about my observation....or rather that I am making an observation at all.

    Do you eat vintage?

    . I am not big on vintage milk. :icon_smil I like it fresh. ;)

    Why is the Bum Look Popular? (formally the unemployed look)

    . After reflecting, I have to agree. I came up with "unemployed look" as part of a dialog in a film short. It makes sense in that particular dialog...but now that it has been bounced around here, I can see that "bum look" or "Panhandler look" is a better fit for a stand alone term. I...

    The Perfect Gimlet in "The Long Good-Bye"

    . I just made my first Gimlet. I made it because I just obtained a bottle of Aviation gin...which is considered an old school approach even though it is a fairly new company. I have not been much of a gin drinker....but I recently had the pleasure to experience a very old drink called an...

    Why is the Bum Look Popular? (formally the unemployed look)

    . I shave daily. I am assuming you are referring to my goatee or vandyke as some call it. I don't let it grow wild. I trim it regularly.
