You don't know anything about me and shouldn't even be allowed to use
the word "insight." Your so-called insight is faux.

We know you like to use artsy-fartsy words like "faux." Which leads us
to conjecture that you own at least one pair of black jeans. And that
you took the 9:14 train from Paddington Station.

Haha- I wear IZOD blue jeans because they are available for $15 at a
seconds/defects outlet about four blocks from where I live, my shirts
come from the same place- always long sleeved button downs. I buy my
"footwear" at Wal-Mart, the latest in Chinese half-high work "boots"-
which I wear until they completely disintegrate. No need for me to worry
about style, I look good in anything:)

From thefreedictionary:
Adj.1.faux - not genuine or real; being an imitation of the genuine
article; "it isn't fake anything; it's real synthetic fur"; "faux
pearls"; "false teeth"; "decorated with imitation palm leaves"; "a purse
of simulated alligator hide"; John Larkin's use of "insight."

I don't see any mention of it being an artsy-fartsy argot-damned now
you're going to "dis" me for using "argot."

Nope- no black jeans- clothing is low priority with me.

"Faux" is one of those great self-referential words.

We don't have any Wal-Marts around here (they are far too politically
incorrect for the Volvo-driving Macys/Saks/Williams-Sonoma crowd) so I
have The Brat ship me quantities of velcro shoes from the Wal-Mart
just outside Ithaca. The soles of the right shoe do tend to detach at
the heel, from rubbing on the floor of the car under the gas pedal,
but a dab of ABS pipe cement fixes that right up.

I never understood the rationale for tying shoes... a huge waste of
labor to create an unreliable connection.

Not for me it isn't, I picked it up from the construction trades such as
faux slate made from concrete, faux folded tin (terne) roofs made from
synthetics, faux marbling, faux this and faux that. I like the idea of
modern and much longer lasting low maintenance, and in some cases less
toxic, materials used to emulate or restore the grandeur/ornamentation
of architectural periods past. Your post makes me think of faux, so
shoot me:)

Well- I learned to tie shoes securely at the age of four or something,
so that's not a problem for me. But I do notice the Chinese believe in
one size fits all for their shoe lace length, usually end up being
considered hazardous by US standards.

100 years ago, 5% of new buildings were ugly. Now the proportion is
reversed.

John

Are you saying that building is ugly? There are some facts about that
particular section of downtown you are not aware of. It is a genius
historical fit.

I like downtown Richmond. Stayed in a restored historic inn around 8
years ago, for my father's 80th birthday reunion... can't remember the
name now. Huge rooms, great little restaurant and drinking room ;-)

Was that the Jefferson Hotel- built by Lewis Ginter at turn of the
century for $1.5M- quite the grand hotel and a showcase. Did you know
they used to keep alligators in some kind of pool in the lobby back then.
BTW, Fred, Did you just get another patent?

...Jim Thompson

Nah- not me.

I can "get" dates at any local grocery.


A boneless ham isn't a "Date".

No, I meant that he was picking up a boneless ham for his "Date"
