    Personal Hygiene during the golden era? did some people only bath once a week??

    There are some places where a once a week bath is less itchy-sounding than others. There are religious sects in Utah and Arizona that still stick to weekly baths, because to do so more often is considered vanity. I don't know if living in the remote desert is part of it or not. But I do...

    The most horrible remake ever to be made

    Oh, man. That was just so... epically bad. So terrifically, confusingly, missing the point-ingly bad. Like, I don't know what they were smoking, but I am hoping the have ceased production of whatever it actually was. I submit The Stepford Wives. Just baffling. And, again--it didn't just...

    Right. And, on top of all that, Sting has a role in it, too. Bleh.

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    I have never made it through 2001. I always fall asleep. Every time. It's better than sleeping pills. I also passed out multiple times before successfully getting through all of Apocalypse Now, Dune, and The Thin Red Line.

    WE DID IT !!! After 38 years the Rangers go to the series!!! ....

    Man, 90% of my facebook is made up of people from the Bay Area and people from the Metroplex. It's like... ALL BASEBALL all the time right now. Even people that usually don't do baseball are talking baseball all of a sudden.

    eBooks

    Yes, but so few documents are the Magna Carta or the Constitution. Most e-books sales are run of the mill paperbacks bestsellers in genre fiction, the kind of non-fiction that more or less comes with an expiration date. Basically, disposable content, meant to be read once and forgotten...

    Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters

    Yeah. Uh. The bonafide hipster types I know? Their early twenties rock and roll lifestyle were not a phase. They are a way of life. And that includes: drinking until dawn nearly every weekend, occasional drug use outside the realm of just weed, some of them are perpetual undergrads, an...

    Unpopular movie opinions...

    It's one of Gilliam's weaker films, imo. And, I am actually not a huge fan of Robin Williams' Beard's Movies. I don't like Good Will Hunting, either.

    I think, maybe, you have um... not correctly visualized how I lived at 22. LOL.

    Fountain pens - ostentatious?

    My husband has one like that "#14." I don't know if it is a 14, but it is a Mont Blanc and it has that star on top. He got it when his grandmother died. That and a very fancy lighter.

    Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters

    Most of the critiquing I have seen of hipsterdom has been based on the "clinging to youth" part. I am right there in the peak smarminess age for hipsterdom and some of my friends most certainly qualify, and honestly, the weird part is that they act *exactly like they did when we were all 22.*...

    The 1940 USA Census

    I am looking forward to having access to it. My relatives were all in Texas, too.
