    Saggy pants are obscene

    I like to watch competitive skateboarding: the skateboarders are graceful, agile and athletic, yet seem to have some modesty in their attitudes. I just wish the modesty would extend to their clothing.

    Let's Retire These Movie/TV Plots!

    Fifty-year-old man with a gorgeous, 25-year-old wife or girlfriend. That, and the man and woman who can't stand each other and don't have anything in common end up getting married. The 70-year-old men who run Hollywood need to get out of Beverly Hills now and then.

    There are quite a few young women who could also stand to pull up their pants.

    Appropriate Dress to Wear As Wedding Guest. Black? Red?

    Bridesmaid dresses are usually hideous, though. Wearing something in a nice design should keep you from being mistaken for one, I think.

    Appropriate Dress to Wear As Wedding Guest. Black? Red?

    The traditional idea is not to look too somber or upstage the bride. Something too sexy isn't appropriate for a wedding, either, and some churches require that ladies cover their shoulders.

    The beard

    Matt, I never realized this, but if you were blond, you'd look almost like my ex-boyfriend. Since you asked, I think if you grow a beard that is much longer than it is now, it will make your face look a bit too long.

    Snow White

    Even if you wear long sleeves (I assume you won't be in a sweater all summer), you need to wear sunscreen under your shirt if you don't want to tan. Most fabric doesn't block all sunlight.

    Are Classy Restaurants Lowering Dress Code Standards in Your Area?

    I agree with everything you've said. It only takes me 20 minutes to fix my hair and makeup, and it doesn't take any longer to put on and decent pair of jeans or slacks or a skirt and a nice top than it does to put on a track suit. I don't understand the all-or-nothing idea.

    1940 Emily Post Etiquette Book

    Note to self: one more reason to stay single. *** Doesn't that make it easy to buy gifts, though? Like whoopee cushions and such?

    Actually, I enjoy tasteless humor now and then, but not in mixed company and not at dinner. There's a time and a place for everything.

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    Low-slung pants look good on women with a round bottom, pinched waist and flat stomach. Which is to say, about 5% of women.

    Are Classy Restaurants Lowering Dress Code Standards in Your Area?

    I don't go to restaurants very often, but at one of my favorites--a beautiful Italian restaurant--some of the men wear baseball caps and shorts. What is the though process here? "Mowing the lawn and cleaning out the garage has really made me hungry. Should I go to the burger barn, the hotdog...

    What Prepares You?

    The temperature. It gets roasting hot here in the summer, and my house isn't air conditioned. The movie I choose is the one that looks the least insulting to my intelligence.

    1940 Emily Post Etiquette Book

    It's a different book, but it sounds like an interesting read. The one I bought is simply called Etiquette.

    Correct. I'm pretty sure she meant that in public or among acquaintances, don't talk about your love life or your more personal health problems.

    Overdressed for a funeral

    As I understand it, a white dress was a luxury not affordable to all in the 19th century and before. The poem seems to show that a variety of colors were worn then. As for the current symbolism of white, that color is the choice of brides who have never been married. That is according to Miss...
