    Loungers' Pets

    I can only speak experientially, from a very small sample- my wife, but as I said they definitely are NOT hypo-allergenic. As for the OILY thing, let me clarify this myth as an actual owner of two of these guys and a as a clothes horse. It's not NEARLY as big a deal as what is made to sound...

    Loungers' Pets

    They are NOT hypo-allergenic, but my wife's sneezing and mild allergies certainly cleared up when our furry cat passed away. Most people with cat allergies, as I understand it, are not allergice to the hair, but to their saliva. The reaction is compounded because cat's lick themselves...

    Halloween Costumes

    Well, the Blade Runer thing didn't come together in time or under budget, so we will be packing some old costumes as back ups. Our main costume will be a Dia de los Muertos thing. My wife found some fantastic dresses, and I am still questing for an old tux and frilly shirt.

    Hitler's globe turns up in Oakland rumpus room

    Agreed. I wish they were more specific about where it was recovered. I thought I read an articel that clearly said it was recovered from the Berghof, although the sloppy author then referred to the Berghof as the Eagles Nest. My wife and I stayed at Hotel zum Turken. Talk about a very...

    Loungers' Pets

    They are soft, and yes, quite a bit like a horses nose! Our black boy sphynx Harold is a bit thicker skinned and not as soft as my Josephine, but they are both very pettable and snuggly! Josephine is soft like butter, like one of my wife's leather coats, Harolds is soft like one of my...

    Rick Deckard Costume, more than just a coat

    Regrettably, it did not go well. We will reattempt the idea next year, but we ran out of time and the cost was looking prohibitive.

    Blade Runner remastered

    A cross post of my 'review' from the events thread- The Leon/Holden VK scene is not new, but the audio sounded remastered. I defintely remember the howl. Yes, these are the things I was referring to. I think they dug up the original audio for the Abdul bin Hussan/Deckard exchange...

    The Evening Tipple...

    Rum. Gay. Sorry, tough guy, couldn't help the jokey-joke. Me it's either beer and schnaps or sctoch, usually a black or a islay/peaty single. Last night it was a bit of both....

    Let's Retire these Cliches

    Forgotten Man- For someone so against the shorthand of abbreviations, you sure have an ironic way of closing your posts. ;) My least favorite, "To be honest with you...". To which i reply, "I really appreciate you opting not to lie to me."

    Loungers' Pets

    My wife submitted a picture of my baby Josephine to KittenWars.com and they put her in their book! My Josephine is a model. Ok, no really she's a pink and blue mackerel Sphynx cat... Kitten Wars - the Book Here's the pic that was cropped and featured- And another, cause she's...

    What's your 'couple' song

    Not to be taken out of context, so I am quoting my list entirely since Edward resurrected it in part. Fairytale is so bitter sweet- it isn't just about alcoholics, which is not my wife and I, but it's about how easy it is to fail and take soemon with you on the way if you aren't careful. A...

    Papers on potenial Hess release

    That logic would have hung millions; I don't think was enough rope left in Germany in 1945 to mete out this 'guilt by association' brand of 'justice'. Remember, KL15, there are shades of grey in everything, and anyone who says otherwise is selling you something, often jingoistic propaganda...

    Vintage, gender, sexuality and me (a disjointed ramble)

    Oh, things do 'blow up', but we have very diligent moderators that care very much about keeping this forum alive. They often have to cut fire breaks, so to speak, just to head off the flames before they even begin.... And a respectful thank you and a bow to all the moderators...

    Vintage, gender, sexuality and me (a disjointed ramble)

    And for the record, I know BK is using the internet definition of 'flamer', as in one who picks fights on message boards, not in any other pejorative sense. ;) On topic, I would hope that truly masculine, classic style is independent of sexuality, and more a reflection of ones personal...
