Are you implying that a disproportionate number of lax players are lesbians, or am I misconstruing your statement?

Huh? They're curiously tall, and wear those weird panties during games. Swimmers and/or divers hold much more appeal.

Unless you're talking about beach volleyballers, in which case you're talking about a stripper-athlete hybrid, which isn't bad at all. BUt you don't find many of them in college, just on the beach.

for those trying to guess Burger's real identify, here's another factoid- he did not attend UC Santa Cruz.

You don't find many students at UC Santa Cruz. You find them on the beach.

That is really funny. I noticed that there was some sort of various artists compilation (I think in the top 100). In light of the fact it was eligible, I'm surprised that the Ronco disco compilition that I telephone ordered in 1979 didn't make the list. Ronco knows music.

Actually, I always wore good shoes. My old man turned me on to Aldens when I was a kid and I've worn them as a staple since. The damn things never give up. I've had hiking boots that died quicker. The Alden loafer is also one of the few loafers you can wear with a suit, and I hate wearing lace-ups.

I have only a few pairs of the Ferragamo/Gucci stuff and only purchased it because my wife said the Aldens are too stuffy and conservative. I don't care too much for the Ferragamos and rarely wear them, but the Gucci loafers are pretty comfortable.

Who gives a shit what "the girls" talk about. Most of the chicks you're referring to have shit for brains anyway, and are only worth fucking and chucking. Those you'd really want to meet are open-minded enough not to judge a man solely by his shoes.

You should reconsider your approach to men. If you talked to me in my expensive shoes you'd be flirting with a high maintenance pain in the ass who's probably more trouble than he's worth. If you talked to my buddy who owns his own company but is wearing a ski parka and a pair of jeans you'd probably meet a much more centered cat who'll probably retire just about the time I'm losing my ass again in the market...

There was a great piece by John Seabrook in The New Yorker about the game a few years back. Link to article here.

Cartoons beyond jejune baboons
 

Take it, take it Paigow P., just don't tell them that you love me.

You're welcome for the tribute. But know that I didn't stumble across an avatar, the identity came first. (Could it possibly have to do with the fact that I drink lots of grape juice post work outs? Or that in this blizzardy weather, the jizzcicles I spew might be grape infused? Or that my natural hirsute propensity, now nicely manscaped, combined with my affinity and radiation of the unfermented fruit of the vine, might have garnered me a nickname?)

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me,
Please change your views on cartoons, my darling Paigow P.

I am late for work so the shoveling is delayed. Look where you step as I hate to see a nice pair of Ferragamos wasted.

Now this is a worthy sock. (hi e/o!)

Canadian Lacrosse
 

We may have been over all this before, but the Canadians are all over lacrosse:

Even worse than Mercedes-Benz naming their new crossover concept the GST (Grand Sport Tourer), not a particularly positive association with the much hated Goods & Services Tax (GST) in our country, General Motors has named a car the 'masturbation'.

Although to most Canadians lacrosse is the name of a sport, it has a far different meaning in Quebec. Buick's LaCrosse (concept shown) will be renamed for Canada. (Photo: General Motors)
Its Buick LaCrosse concept that has just been announced for production, lacrosse a name most Canadians know as an indigenous peoples' sport, is slang for masturbation in Quebec, embarrassing GM officials according to the domestic automaker.

Chocolate Emergency; Sex'n'Shoes
 

Where the hell can I find good *dark* chocolate gelt? The artificial 'milk chocolate' crap from CVS is not going to cut it. Sweet tooths of the FB, please help!

Also, Sebby's just wrong on shoes. Nice ones are not a dealbreaker. But most guys set the fashion/grooming bar so low with the same pair of half-poly Dockers and dead-dot-com polo shirt that it's an easy way to show you're not a tasteless blockhead. Why not give yourself an edge?

And if you have nice shoes but are still an ass, the women will figure it out fast anyway. So don't worry about well-shod losers getting quality play.

Chocolate Emergency; Sex'n'Shoes
 

Well, that and pairing loafers, no matter how nice, with a suit.

Wow, you are so classy! It's no wonder you were snapped up -- she's one lucky gal!


While this whole discussion is really tiresome, to be fair, that's not what she said. She said that was one of the elements.

Just to add some market color (OK, I've totally given away what I do for a living....), a friend of mine from college told me some advice her mother gave her when she was a wee lass:

If you ever get lost, try to find a policeman to help you, if you can't find a policeman, try to find a woman with a child to help you, and if you can't find either of those, look for a man in a suit wearing [nice] [expensive] (can't remember which she used) shoes.

I think there are two ways to rank albums over a long period, and RS has picked my favorite method, which involves more the impact of an album at its contemporary height as opposed to a current look. SPep was very much a high-impact album when it came out, signaling a course change of sorts for the Beatles, and also containing quite a few themes that were meaningful then, but old and cliche'd now. Revolver, while it might be ranked better today, didn't have near the impact back when.

This poll doesn't appear to be the play list of every "classic rock" station across the country today. It does, however, resemble a sampling of every monthly slice of musical importance over time.

I refuse to accept eternal curses on chocolates. Just as there are now some decent kosher wineries popping up that avoid the Manischewitz cough-syrup effect, I fully expect, and demand, more sophisticated Hanukkah sweets.

And in the interests of cross-cultural harmony, I promise I will also lobby for less crappy chocolate Easter bunnies. So help me out here someone!

I hate you for going down this road Paigs...

Anthem of the Sun is THE Dead masterpiece. Sure, Beauty and Workingman's are classics, but Anthem is true Dead as they sounded at Kesey's acid tests. Did you buy Dicks Picks 22 yet? Its fucking amazing.

The Dead were not undderepresented in regard to albums on that 500 best list, except that Anthem should have been there. Where they were underrepresented was in rank - American Beauty and Workingman's should have been top 75. Anthem and Live Dead should have been top 50.

And Please buy Two From the Vault. Next to DP 22, its the finest slice of real primal Dead as they should be heard available.

As to the remainder of the 500 list, I say fuck any list where Neil Young's higest rank is in the 70s.

Oh, and one more thing... 5 years ago never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex Pistols was #2. In the 500 list is was 53. It fell forty eight slots in 5 years? WTF? Pretty fucking arbitrary.

1. They're more comfortable.

2. It shows subtle contempt for the grooming rules adhered to by the white shoe assholes I work around.

3. I'm talking Alden point toed loafers, not penny loafers or Guccis with silver shit on them.

Well, it took only 5700+ years to get the wine straightened out. What's another 5000 or so for the chocolate?

This entire shoes/watch discussion has reinforced that I must be a lower class loser at heart. I will now publicly admit that I have never looked at any guy's shoes or watch upon meeting in a bar. And, even more alarming, I would not know Gucci from Ferregamo from anyone else. I don't shop for men's shoes. I suppose if I looked at a watch and (a) the emblem was a commonly recognizable one and (b) it was large enough to see it, then I might know what brand the watch was. Having never in my life looked at a guy's watch in a bar though, this is only speculation.

And when I have met guys with super expensive cars, I've typically had the impression that they were either living beyond their means or they placed way more value on cars than I do.

Seriously, do women do this shit? None of my friends do (that I know of) and I live in the runner-up shallowist city in America. And what are they hoping to gain? (that was rhetorical, I guess)

I must have been doing the whole singles scene incorrectly when I was in it.

As an aside, there is a trust fund loser who siphons money off of his family instead of holding down a job who is available in Dallas, for any golddiggers out there. I'm not really sure that much gold is involved, but it is apparently enough for the 28-year-old loser who I dated a couple years back to sit around his house all day. Maybe if I had studied his watch and shoes I might have picked up on how worthless he is, but I doubt it.

I'll take my work-a-day lawyer bf, complete with his normal guy car, shoes and watch.

Thanks for visiting the stall. However, though it may look like chocolate at a glance, it is shit. Beware.

Not if you look at this as not being weighted towards current sentiment over the sentiment at the time of the music.

(But, by those standards, 2ftV should have been in there, too.)

Right. Because you'd be wearing pajamas and a smoking jacket. Duh.

If my similarly limited experience, those ones who sit around the house all day are the ones who can least afford to do so on their limited trust funds. Soon they'll be 35, have $200k left in some crap stocks, and have to figure out how the fuck to make an actual living for the next 50 years. It takes a while for some folks to realize that unless you live off of only the interest (or less), a trust fund actually can be depleted.

The ones whose funds are sufficiently ample to allow for a lifetime of such behavior are either working at daddy's/family's bank (or similar fairly legitimate business) or are doing things like teaching schoolchildren or working for some sort of charitable foundation.

Not true. I understand that your Austin-colored glasses force you to look down on Dallas, but seriously LA is the hands-down winner. People in Dallas don't expect you to be anyone. Not being anyone in LA is an ignore-worthy offense. No offence.

str8, care to back me up?

[This is not to say that I would not live in LA, but it is to say that it would be an adjustment, even coming from Dallas. I think any city with good weather is a place I could live, but that is mainly because I choose not to get caught up in the stuff that I consider to be ridiculous bullshit.]
