    Cravats / Ascots With what ought a well-dressed man wear them? (And any advice on tying them so the knot doesn't slip?)

    College wardrobe

    This is basically mine as well, but I tend towards round neck sweaters when without tie.

    Men's Underwear Basics: Underwear, Undershirts

    I, apparently like most, wore briefs as a kid. I moved to boxers in high school. I'm in the process of switching to boxer-briefs. Best of both worlds. Golden mean. Middle Path. All that.

    Don't want a religious look

    Red hair runs in some Chassidic families, so that's no safeguard. ;) I've spent quite some time with Chassidic Jews and Orthodox more generally. The Chabad (=Lubavitch) Chassids (probably the most commonly seen, with the Borsalinos) wear big brims- I can tell their hats from a mile away...

    MEN of the LOUNGE

    Kosher for Passover Coke also is made with sugar instead of corn syrup. (I'm back! Midterms were terrible!)

    Do you have a crush?

    Classic education

    You got a great deal on that. I don't even have all of those guys in my personal library (though I skew Greek)- Florus and Paterculus are particularly rarely read nowadays. I'm envious.

    A breakdown of Fedora Loungers by sex, location, age and marital status

    I'll probably be in town from Wednesday through Sunday. Let's be in touch when it gets closer.

    What's wrong with these people?

    Where did those parents learn it? From their parents? If so, then this is the way things have always been. I think there's been a huge cultural change since Vietnam. I'm not sure what it was, but I'm pretty sure it happened.

    A breakdown of Fedora Loungers by sex, location, age and marital status

    Hey, Night. My parents live in Cinci...I grew up there. I'll be in town for Thanksgiving, we should meet up at Newport on the Levee for a drink.

    What's wrong with these people?

    From reading the article, it doesn't sound like bored kids but rather someone mentally ill. The article stated that small bullets were used to prolong pain and suffering; killing animals to watch them suffer is a classic symptom of very serious psychoses. Edited to add: That is to say, I'm not...

    How Many of us Write?

    I write poetry, occasionally. And the occasional micro-fiction.

    Cologne and perfume

    There's a British toiletries company (with locations spattered across the US of A) called "Lush" that makes some facial cleansers which will probably fill your need. I use one called "Phresh Pharmacy" - a horrible name, I know, and pink, but it works wonders. It takes care of oil and obviates...

    What are you listening to?

    It's at that place at 14238 Harper just outside Detroit. Doors are at 6; you could probably still get a ticket. Face value of the tickets is $20; pretty reasonable. I have the new album, "Dark Passion Play"- the new young lady (Anette Olzon) is quite good. Her voice is warmer and a bit...

    Scouting anyone?

    I made it to Star, before the adult politics of the troop tore it apart. Too bad, I had a good time and learned a great deal.

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Ah, I wish. My current projects are a note on a simile in Sophocles' Ajax and a discussion of a pair of emmendations to the text of the Odyssey by Richard Bentley (1662-1774, master scholar (published on Classics, especially Greek, and physics and was royal librarian for a while). I do,though...

    Classic education

    Of Man's first Disobedience and the fruit thereof I sing... The joke of that poem is that the Devil is the hero, and the lesson of the joke is that humanity tends towards the worse end of the spectrum than the better. It's simply Milton's retelling of the Tree of Knowledge story from...
