See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

OK, so I was looking up Chanukah House to see when I need to avoid Park Heights Road. And I found pictures of some of the decorations. I leave them to you to comment on.

Somewhere in the office, so low that I can just barely make out the lyrics, someone is playing "Father Figure".

You know, Clooney was a lot less attractive in 1989 than he is now (IMO). Damn him - who has the right to be better looking at 45 than at 30?

You know what, though? Clooney has the same thing going on that Robert Redford does and that (I think) Brad Pitt does. When they were younger, they were just sort of generically pretty -- DAMN pretty, but in a sort of unstamped-coin kind of way. Shiny, but generic.

After some years, though, they're no longer generic. Their coin of attractiveness has been stamped.

I always felt that Princess Di was like this, too.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Redford? I think he just looks sort of surgically tweaked now.

I totally agree on Brad Pitt though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Those Chanukah House decorations are hilarious.

I was going to suggest Paul Newman, but then I remembered that I think young Paul Newman is hot like burning.

Yeah, but what about 10-ish years ago? When he was pre-tweaked but post-young!pretty?

I think young Paul Newman is hot like burning.

HELL yes.

Seriously. I've never been a Redford fan, but I do think he hit his peak in his 50s (pre-surgery).

And now I have "Father Figure" in my head.
