    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Well, to be fair, I was in their "Couture" section, drooling over those Marc Jacobs. And that man is never cheap. I imagine that these are limo shoes, or some equivalent; I can't imagine them as daily-wear, unless I spent my days reclining on a chaise longue eating bon-bons, or shopping at...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Marc Jacobs is a big fat jerk! Here's why... $568.95 Same as above. $563.95 $453.95 $363.95 I got too depressed to go further on zappos.com, even though stuff got "cheaper" in the Marc Jacobs list. I love and hate him.

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Who IS this Faryl Robin person? I want to find this woman, or man, or corporation and hug, then punch them. She/he/they make such neat looking, retro shoes. I'm digging these in silver. Off again for another home equity loan!

    The lack of Pedestrian culture in America

    AlanC, Bella Hella... I am in your boat. I'd go as far as to say, it's all quite pedantic. If I walked in AZ this time of year... Destination Desication!

    Beauty Scans, 1950

    Pinky dear, you are not plus size or stout. I guess this would have been in comparison to someone like Veronica Lake who was a miniature person. Haven't seen Ayds in a while. No one wants Ayds anymore. THANK YOU for posting these. I'ma drool over them once more...

    favorite cars of the golden era

    I find the history of the car more interesting than its subsequent appreciation as movie prop. Don't get me wrong... BTTF is a bitchin' flick, and flux capacitors are the bomb, but an untouched DeLorean, well! He was the Tucker of the '80s, only with more cocaine. In the film Harold and...

    What's Your Favorite Joke?

    Paraphrased from Emo Philips, said during a show in Pasadena: ~~I've never seen so MANY Starbucks before IN MY LIFE... but so LITTLE reason to stay awake...~~ (It's hard to get Emo's cadence in a post!)

    The Single & Ridiculously Good-Lookin' Room

    Brooksie, I apologize for aping your name sake and corresponding avatar. But it was a very comfortable look for me. Because she's the best... Anyway, on the subject of the thread, hola! I am Vivian! Hear me roar, and stuff...

    favorite cars of the golden era

    Here we go... Of course, a Tucker. You know what they look like. I've been to Curves of Steel twice already and from it I choose... NO CHOPPING NECESSARY (I'm talking the coupe)... A '55 Packard Caribbean... I don't care what scheme, so long as there's THREE colors on that puppy...

    Route 66 motels an endangered species...

    Not to mention US 60, 70, 80, 89, blah, blah, blah... (in AZ, anyway) With Phoenix no longer maintaining "one hour" permits for motels, our gems are under threat. Prostitution was keeping these joints alive. Huh! The 66 AP article: Route 66 motels an endangered species The Log Cabin...

    Phoenix dive bars going the way of the dinosaur...

    Ugh! The News Room is closing. http://www.azcentral.com/community/phoenix/articles/0511newsroom0511-ON.html It sat behind the Arizona Republic building, hence the name. Imagine going over some choppy copy whilst bent over your typewriter, 'round about midnight, when you finally say to...

    Trader Vic's at the Beverly Hilton... closed?

    It won't be done correctly. The NEW Trader Vic's in Scottsdale just looks like, well, like Scottsdale. Authenticity gets a nod, not the full treatment, as if the past will overwhelm people. Is the Tiki Room at Disneyland intact? That place was perfect.

    Historic Movie Palaces

    Thanks Dahlia and JBD for chiming in on the Orpheum! The last film this season was this past Sunday, and I missed it. Extra points for the acmeron link... he's got the best shots, doesn't he?

    Trader Vic's at the Beverly Hilton... closed?

    If it's moving, how original is it going to be? I hope to hear a report from someone out there! Feraud - your traffic's GOTTA be improving because all of California is moving to Arizona (I did so in '89, so I am grandfathered in). New Mexico is looking better and better to me everyday ;)
