    Public derision

    Sorry Fellow, I know what a "Yob" is. I do NOT know what a "Chav" is. I note that you reside in Florida, as do I. Florida is a shall issue state, which means that unless you do not meet the minimal requirements, based on criminal record, mental impairment, or other proscription element...

    I'll have a Scotch...

    You pretty smart fella!! I tip my sombrero to your VERY good taste.(Except for the Glenfiddich, which I cannot stand-personal taste;) I completely agree) I am not a whisky snob, because I don't care who drinks what, or smokes what either. But I have platinum tastes in single malts and enjoy...

    Public derision

    The answer to your question is: No! Getting up without delay, very rapidly approaching your two "drunken Yobs", and open handed slapping the crap out of the most offensive one as hard as you can, and shouting as loudly as you can in his face, "{bartender edit - we don't permit such language...

    If you could solve just one mystery....

    I have to admit that I do get bored lately. A non-occupational habit of old men who "usta be" on the playing field.;) I would happily accept any officially sanctioned investigation to play with, but given my druthers, I would much prefer to joust against the procurment and domestic...

    If you said you looked like one celebrity from the Golden Era...

    Who have you been told you resemble? Who would you like to resemble? This is yet another of my virtual hand grenades rolled across the floor.;) I have been told by many different people, at different times, in different locales, that I bear a strong resembelance to the late actor Burt...

    The loss of occasion

    I do like how the vintage scene tries to recapture occasion though in a retro artificial way at times. Sometimes the feeling is there and sometimes it's a costume affair with some in t-shirts and some in black tie and neither feeling the energy of the occasion. Correct. I to mourn the...

    The loss of occasion

    NO!!!! NO! NO! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do NOT take all of old that stuff with you. Take only the smallest amount of clothing that you might need for travel and emergency. The stuff you travel in, and a two days worth of "change in to"stuff. This is your chance to BUY NEW for every...

    Cringing re-make of The WILD BUNCH

    My God!!! There really are schmucks in the woods that think a Picasso, a DaVinci, a Rembrandt, whoever; that can be improved upon, by using brighter colors or using a roller or spray paint gun. What a outright crying shame. I was just speculating about a re-make of an UN-re-makable film...

    Grindhouse

    My two Kopeks, three Agorot, one sou and a dirty won Violence in any production, is like lipstick. Appropriate and enhancing in the correct amount and totally riduculous if overdone. Blowing up cars,non-sequiter car chases, shootings, burnings, stabbings, stranglings, to say nothing of...

    All the King's Men

    Sean Penn? Sean Penn?? The surly, mush mouthed "NOLA boatman", political nincompoop who hob nobs with Commie Dictator Hugo Chevez?? He was in "All the King's Men"? Not the film I saw. Sir David Jason as Captain Frank Beck however was. An outstanding performance, from an outstanding...

    Cringing re-make of The WILD BUNCH

    Who will be the sub-moronic Producer/Director/Investment Company, with the temerity to think that they can remake Sam Peckinpah's "The WILD BUNCH" and attempt to improve or better characterize the story, the time, circumstances, timing or character development of that rarest of classics...

    The Shadow

    I must be honest with you. Even though I've tried to watch the film, my view of Alec Baldwin and his protrayal of Lamont Cranston was/is heavily colored and in a very negative hue. I felt the flying, nudging dagger was blatantly silly and insulting. It went steeply downhill from that point. That...
