What are we missing...?
That last bit is a dangerous idea when real life civil liberties are involved, by the way. It may be just the internet and you very likely didn't mean it that way I read it, but since we're discussing the conjunction between internet life and real life, I think that just needs to be said. But...- Beaubeau

Retro Graphic Novels
The Twelve is an excellent book where they took 12 obscure 1940 Timely/Marvel characters and put them in the modern day. It's unfinished and it leaves you on a cliffhanger, but in February of this year Straczynski (the writer) said they were going to finish it later this year. Even...- Beaubeau

Sport coat and jeans??
It's perfectly alright, I wasn't as clear as I could have been. You seem like a nice, attractive, young man, so you'll be fine. -
Sport coat and jeans??
Oh no. What I'm trying to say is, in my experience, women are always sad to see a charming, good looking fellow leave -even with a promise of a future date, but always happy to watch him go, if you're getting what I'm hinting at. ;) Attractive clever company is always the best company and... -
What's on your wishlist?
With some kinds of women's shoes you can actually permanently and painfully injure yourself by wearing them too long, often requiring extensive surgery everywhere from the feet to the lower back to correct the damage done. Most women's "huge" shoe collections (if she has one of those) are of...- Beaubeau

Sport coat and jeans??
They're quite a little light judging by the photograph, but you're going to the Olive Garden and then for a ramble by the riverside, so you should be fine. Unless she's the sort to not do dressing up things by halves, to be honest, I don't even think she would notice, because it's the Olive... -
Sport coat and jeans??
I like to wear sportcoats with jeans sometimes. I find that dark blue-black jeans work best for looking you actually want to look sort of dressy, but if the wash gets to be a too light of a blue you look like an idiot who accidentally got lost in a Men's Wearhouse rack while drunk. -
Back to School Bags
That's what I'm thinking as well, especially since I have mild scoliosis already. I'm thinking that I'll see what I can scrounge around for a good leather backpack to last for a long while, likely past the PHD and Med School. Fortunately for me, I seldom, if ever, bring my laptop with me to...- Beaubeau

Back to School Bags
So school is coming upon us, rapidly. I have checked almost everything off my supply list except a good bag for school, and I have a lot of very heavy things to carry everywhere as I'm a triple major in Biochemist, Chemistry, and Microbiology. I've heard whispers of these guys, but I'm not sure...- Beaubeau

men who write in or keep journals
Rorschach in Watchemen keeps a journal (although Rorschach can keep the crazy), and I've always wanted one like his with the dates of the years stamped in the cover. I'm going to reckon I'll have to letter punch the leather myself. (Watchmen Spoilers if you care for that sort of thing here...- Beaubeau

What You'd Like To Have, What You Won't & What They Will Probably...
What would end up on it, I can count on it: (Note: Lazer is a perfectly valid name for a little boy, that has understandably become unpopular. It is my father's name.) Yair ben reb Lazer Beauregard ----- 1989-??? May his soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life. What I would want...- Beaubeau

What are we missing...?
Esquire, GQ, and Vogue advertise themselves as inspirational magazines, as in you're supposed to try and replicate the look without spending all the dough they did. It's bullpucky, but you know. The argument over price point of things in the magazine is nothing new to Women's Fashion magazines...- Beaubeau

What are we missing...?
My theory is that this is why printed media will never truly go completely away. Sure, Twitter and Youtube'll give you the latest on the Iran protests and the Pakistan floods, but when it comes down to it, the old adage is true: "Good things take time". To be provocative, you simply have to...- Beaubeau

Fish and chips and other balms for the soul
Nothing better than a good gumbo, except maybe an excellent jambalaya. I would give a kingdom for good hushpuppies or collards or good grits or an excellent biscuit and gravy. What's life without a good Chicken and Dumplings or salmon croquettes or Brunswick stew?- Beaubeau

There are. They're mostly for small children and tend to cost a lot more than regular toothpaste because they're blazoned with popular children's cartoons.- Beaubeau

Do You Feel Old, CNN Article
You're welcome. On the other hand, there is always room for people to yell at other people who happened to be born extremely recently to remove their ragmuffin selves from the aesthetic and recreational land planted with grasses which belong to the yeller, for no other reason than it's fun.- Beaubeau

Do You Feel Old, CNN Article
It has been my experience that every generation gets an article that completely overblows the differences between the generations, and pretends that there is never any room for improvement in anything anywhere. People, as a group, don't do everything like a complete Luddite OR technofab spaceman...- Beaubeau

New Ladies and Gents Step Forward
When I was younger, I used to read whatever pulp hero mystery novels I had gotten my hands on under the light of a sabbath lamp, and we were allowed to watch old black and white movies. They were glamorous, exciting, and fun. What more does a young boy really need to spark an interest? My...- Beaubeau

Catalog Suit Scans 35-42
Thank you very much. Sears clothing is where it seems all inspiration springs eternal for the new age crowd, but since Sears is no longer a major player in fashion selling (You apparently have to pay for the catalog, and there's several catalogs?), you would have to do the math of how much...
