    Vintage: An act of conservation?

    Oh sure, obviously I understand the difference, but that should never be confused with preservation. By wearing one destroys; it's a sad irony.

    Pelikan Foutain Pen Lapel Pin

    A Pelikan pen has the distinctive clip that looks like the face of a Pelican; eyes up top, beak curling down.

    Vintage: An act of conservation?

    True conservation would mean that you are keeping your vintage clothes in hermetically sealed boxes in temperature controlled rooms. Anything less than how the Smithsonian would care for them means that you are slowly destroying them, sadly. That being said, they are better served on you...

    Boston Advice Sought - Dates Chosen!

    It's one of my favorite places in the entire world. It was modeled after a British officer's club and was built around the time of the Titanic. Drinks are expensive, but very good.

    Does the search function really work?

    Nope, I don't believe it does. The experience of searching is not affected by browser either. I have used my PC at work, my iBook laptop, which uses Firefox and Opera, and my desktop, which uses the new Beta form of Safari, which is lightening fast by the way. Also, my iPhone. It all behaves...

    Boston Advice Sought - Dates Chosen!

    I respectfully disagree with Carlisle. If you don't stay in Boston, don't come. One of the joys of this city is that it is a walkable city. I can't imagine the joy of coming here without it. The furthest I would stay out would be Kenmore, or maybe Coolidge Corner in Brookline. There are some...

    Show Us Your Handwriting - Vintage Penmanship!

    I am very surprised to read how few people write in cursive. I thought everyone did and I thought everyone did it neater and with more style than I do! I keep a journal and write letters and I do these things in cursive. I have always wished to have a consistently expressive style of script...

    Negative Reactions?

    Agreed! We are indeed fortunate to live in an enlightened and diverse place. This is why I love Boston so very much. Now anecdotes never prove or disprove a rule, but we certainly live in an accepting and tolerant place.

    Land of the LOST as a movie

    The preview for "Land of the Lost" is on Apple's site and it looks funny, not spend $12 for a ticket funny, but "I'll catch it on cable in the middle of the night" funny.

    What are your favorite mystery or espionage novels?

    Has anyone read Donna Leon's "Guido Brunetti" mystery series? The first one is "Death At the Fenice." They take place in Venice and reflect realistic Venetian life. Brunetti is a good man and fullly realized on the page. Also Trevanian's "Shibumi" is a great read; a parody, but not when...

    Sometimes schadenfreude is hilarious

    Oh come on now, as long as you're not wearing pin-stripes where a "B" is supposed to be, you'll be just fine. ;) :)

    Do you have an opinion of this? I link with out any sort of explanation is sort of anti-climatic, don't you think? [huh]
