    The Preppy Handbook... Returns!

    Well, yes, there is a part of that. It was class identification. But remember, the book is a satire, and the style exists separately from the origins of the movement. Think of "Rugby" by Ralph Lauren which riffs off the theme of prep and mirrors the modern progression. Personally, I believe...

    The Preppy Handbook... Returns!

    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/04/books/04preppy.html?hpw Yes, an updated version of The Preppy Handbook is coming. I am embarrassed to say that I still have my copy from the 1980s! I went to Holy Cross High School and although it was not a prep school, it was parochial, we wore blazers and...

    "The Pacific" - can it possibly live up to expectations?

    I have no issue with the sex scene, if it leads to a larger story idea. I just have a problem with the entire series. It's just not very good, and on nearly every level; story telling, pace, acting, directing. It's very... well, average, isn't it? And with Band of Bros. being the obvious...

    "Time Traveler" in 1941: "modern" dress in old photos?

    Certainly top 5! "The Girl in the Fireplace" gets me too. I love that one. OK. We need to take this to the Who thread! http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=7455

    "Time Traveler" in 1941: "modern" dress in old photos?

    I have some reservations with the new fellow and the seemingly Twilightification of it, if you will, bit I am going to give it a shot. Though this is a conversation for another thread..! And we have that thread in Moving Pictures. :)

    "Time Traveler" in 1941: "modern" dress in old photos?

    Well, actually time is not what you think it is... It's comlicated... It's very complicated. Everyone assumes that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non- subjective point-of-view, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly Timey-whimey... Stuff. ;)

    New L.L. Bean "Signature" Line

    These are more tailored versions of their classics, simple as that. If you like their classics, why wouldn't you like more tailored versions? If there has been one thing wrong with LL Bean, it has been their gigantic sizing! I'm sure we're all familiar with the tent-like fit of their oxfords. I...

    51 young Vikings beheaded found

    This is interesting, but way off topic! Around 1,000 years or more. I'll leave it so people can read it, but we are ever so mindful of mission drift.

    Finding Love online, have you?

    I'm sorry, this isn't really right for this forum, and we have had similar threads that didn't end well.

    "The Pacific" - can it possibly live up to expectations?

    Strictly being critical, the first episode was a bit of a disappointment for me. It was laden with cliche' and offered nothing original, including special effects. Also, it skipped a lot of the character development we were treated to through bootcamp in "BOB" and substituted this for those...

    Housekeeping I've merged some weather threads. Probably could have merged more, but this will due for now.

    Should Olympic world records count?

    Hey Baron, I missed you. Nice to see you back!

    Should Olympic world records count?

    It would be nice to bring some historic perspective to this to make it more relevant to our forum.

    LL Bean Flight Jacket

    I like the fit and the collar. Very nice. Good luck with it.

    I have a theory..and questions.

    This is better suited to a blog than to the Lounge.

    Hat advice at the expense of the Fedora Lounge

    Watch the language folks. This site is PG 13. Try to be a little more creative.
