Nah. A serial monogamist. Don't know how polygamists can do it. One at a time is sometimes one too many.
And by the way, daughter and her friends have been on the covers of Cosmopolitan, Vogue, and other magazines. I am okay with acknowledging that they might just be attractive.
My wives and daughters were models. I'm a photographer. So I have costumes, and OP reminded me of this one. I actually saw a young lady wear the exact same costume to the Renaissance Festival. Not so creepy. Get over it.
Wonderful to hear some good news. Will be happy when I see him at the Box.

Res Ipsa Loquitur, Baby!

I would whisper sweet nothings in Latin all night long.
Got to have quality pics in order to give quality advice. Good pics will also help her recruiting. I volunteer to take them for her. If she's cute. Just a service I offer to the community.
North Plaq is fine. A litle rain.

The weather broadcasts in NOLA seem like a version of Whack-A-Mole.
Warnings on the west bank! Westwego Marrero debris in the air.
Tracking across Lake Ponchartrain/Causeway. I understand the Causeway is closed. If you are on the south shore do not try to go north.

WDSU showing video of NOLA East damage. Some heavy along Bundy Road.
At first I thought that pic of Sailor was a young model I know, a little bit different nose though.
Thanks. We need more swimwear photography threads. I wish I had SI's budget and HAMU people.

22222 - after all, how many people can say they did? Christie is one of the very best ever and still a beautiful woman.
When I was young we had these things to climb outside the house. Back then they were called "trees".
I don't remember any girl wronging me in such a fashion. Had a number of relationships that did not work for some reason or another. Usually it was me who was avoiding commitment to a girl who wanted more.

But here's a story to entertain ya:

I was thirtysomething when I finally banged my high school crush. Then she got all clingy and was smothering me, so I had to end it. In a couple of years she would have expected me to take her to her senior prom.

(Apologies to Amy Schumer, but when she tells this as a joke it kinda hits home.)
Also highly recommended:

Coal Miner's Daughter

Don't be put off by the subject matter (story of country singer Loretta Lynn). I am not a country music fan at all but the film is genuinely entertaining. Sissy Spacek was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress in the title role.

If you can make it through the campfire scene without at least smiling you are dead inside.


As a college student, I went to see the original theatrical release. Bought a big tub of popcorn and was stuffing my face with it. At the campfire scene popcorn tried to come out my nose. No warning. I could have choked to death right there on popcorn like Mama Cass on a ham sandwich.

Among the many great lines, some I still use myself:

Say boys, where de white wimmin' at?
Is that a ten gallon hat or you just happy to see me?
I didn't get a harrumph outta that guy!
The Sheriff is a n-BONG (church bell rings).
What did he say?
He said the sheriff is near.
No! Dad blame it! I said the sheriff is a n-BONG!
Allow me to whip this out.




So there was an inquiry by the police and the coroner following her death. You reported what happened, identified the men in a lineup and they served the max for kidnapping and aggravated assault (with potentially deadly bodily fluids). Or did you just summarize a story you read on some fantasy writing site?
Blowtorch.

If you don't have a blowtorch, use your flamethrower.
To reiterate a few already mentioned that are in my top ten:

Ben Hur
The Graduate
Bridge on the River Kwai
Little Big Man
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

Not yet mentioned but extremely worthy:

Slaughterhouse Five
High Noon
All Quiet on the Western Front
I Walk the Line (the original, not the recent "Walk the Line")

Best "coming of age" film never ever mentioned by anyone anywhere except two thumbs up from Siskel and Ebert:

Breaking Away
quote:

I typically can't stand musicals. But I recently watched "Fiddler on the Roof", "West Side Story" and "Sound of Music" with my 12 yr old daughter -- she loved them. Forgot how good of movies they are.


I can recommend two musicals to watch with her - Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (the one with Donnie Osman as Joseph) and Phantom of the Opera. Both very well done.

Good Saturday, fellow insomniacs.
