    Is Knowledge Power?

    The "good" Dr. Laura is not a doctor of Phycology or Psychiatry, she is a Doctor of Phisiology. http://www.drlaura.com/about/ I have the same degree in a undergraduate and some post grad work. I can tell you that it doesn't qualify you to give out narrow minded, and misguided advice on...

    Well, I had a rather demanding etiquette teacher, my mother. :D And my Great Aunt, was from the deep south, She always addressed my letters as Master until my 18th birthday and then I became Mister. Alighieri

    Miss, Mrs. or Madam? The demise of Ms?

    Honorifics All, As I was taught; Miss was a girl till puberty, a Ms. till marriage (or if marital status is unknown) and a Mrs after marriage. One should normally address a woman as Ms. unless she corrects you to Mrs. or more commonly her first name. A boy was Master till he was in...

    Auction of 'Hitler' watercolours

    Actually I am not Dante, but thank you for the compliment. The "good" you mention in auctioning the watercolors is that possibly they will be saved for history. As to the tone you read my post in and the tone which I ment it, that seems to be a personal translation issue. I was simply...

    Auction of 'Hitler' watercolours

    Ms. Buchanan, I am glad you see and realize your bias. I gather that you might be or have family that is Jewish? With your passion I suspect so. Gently, I would like to remind that not everyone has the same emotional ties to what Hitler did as you might. Just as few on here might have strong...

    Madrid: Models Who Are Too Skinny Are Unwelcome.

    Former Exercise Physiologist Opinion I have two degrees in Exercise Physiology and Sports Medicine. I did my major Senior Paper on "Body Image and Fashion as it relates to Self Esteem in Athletes." This gives me a good basis for this thread. First off, Fashion runways are not where as a...

    anti-nazi merchandise confusion

    This is the same PC nonsense that we have in this country. We are so afraid of offending anyone that we would prosecute people who actually support the "good" cause. That is the problem with writing laws you must make them fit real life, and real life is difficult to define. And banning any...

    Porkpies

    In casual outfits, I like to wear diamond top porkpies. They look good with anything short of a shirt and tie in my opinion. Alighieri http://www.hatsinthebelfry.com/page/H/PROD/mdh/1377p
