    Handsome Fellas!

    Sometimes it is the attitude that makes the features remarkable and attractive. Some women I have been attracted may have been considered of average looks, but, their charisma, attitude and the way they carried themselves made them irresistible.

    Prohibition

    It looks to be a beer stein with a cap and thumb lever. When the lever is depressed the cap opens, the contents can be accessed that way. Much like this........:)

    Prohibition

    Prohibition and it's proponents such as the Anti-Saloon League created a great deal of dissension among various religions like Protestant and Catholic who had been at odds over alcohol for years before the 18th Amendment was passed. Alcohol was used in many cultures and was a way of life rather...

    The Ernest Hemingway Thread

    It represents much more to me. The boy dismissing the father while appearing to be stoic in his view of certain death also mirrors the father's attitude towards "Schatz". Even calling the boy "Schatz" there is nothing emotional, but, more objective or flat. The word "schatz" in German means...

    The Ernest Hemingway Thread

    Hadley, your quote is very hard to reconcile with the fact that he committed suicide and fabricated many of his "tales" in his personal letters and papers according to his biographer Carlos Baker. alsendk, I take these statements from Hemingway as prose and look at the man who struggled as all...

    The Ernest Hemingway Thread

    I think it really depends on what the reader is looking for. To examine Hemingway in a purely literal sense Baker's work is the Rosetta Stone of EH biographies. Baker was the "official" biographer of Hemingway, although his third wife Martha Gelhorn appeared to be uncooperative. Hotchner...

    The Ernest Hemingway Thread

    ^^^ This is certainly a refreshing point of view, Hemingway has become more of a mythical icon than a prolific writer of late. I viewed "Midnight in Paris" and am familiar with "The Paris Wife" both were entertaining, but, missing a great deal of substantive material. I am looking forward to...
