    Obsolete Occupations

    When I was in the third grade, around 1981, I had a bad ankle sprain. My mother took me to an old lady that felt it around, determined there was no fracture, rubbed it and twisted it and in less than 2 minutes it was fixed. Today, I'd probably be confined to a cast for several weeks because that...

    Thin ties...any thoughts?

    I'd definitely wear that one and would gladly trade it for a bunch of my 3.5"ers, which I recently stored in an airtight bag. Would look good with a correct era suit as well as a modern one. I like thinner ties because they fit my body type better than wider ones. I prefer 3", but recently...

    According to the site: "The former Ramey High School is now used as a Job Corp office." I can check out with somke people I know from that side of the island if that is still accurate, as the site might have some outdated info, like the following: It pictures the former hospital and says it...

    Hello all. I'm a lawyer in Puerto Rico. As some of you may know, PR is a Commonwealth of the U.S. or, in simpler terms, a territory with its own constitution, which in itself is a legal and political debate with no end in sight. I'm admitted to practice before PR's state & federal district...

    The "Annoying Phrase" Thread

    The most common use of "como no" is as a response to a request, such as: "Can you please give me _____?" "Cómo no." The literal translation is "How not", and it means sure, of course, and even "why not". It's still in use today, but it is being replaced by "seguro" (sure), or a plain...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    I'm glad you liked it. I've had mine since '04 and still smile everytime I see it freshly washed and find myself looking back at it when I park it. I also love the exhaust note, be it cruising or at wot in the highway. As you can imagine, when the time arrives, I'm looking forward to replace it...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    I am probably partialized in my opinion, since I am an Infiniti owner myself (2003 G35 coupe, manual transmission, of course) but I think the best buy in that lot is the G37. It is a genuine coupe, with power in the correct axle and packs the perfect balance between sportiness, luxury and...
