Typo Boy, my understanding of gentility is that it is associated with not having to work for your money. If you have property that earns money for you, especially land, that's what makes you a gentleman. But if you built up a profitable business and became wealthy that way, even if now all you do is sit around and watch the money roll in, you're "in trade" and that's not a gentleman's business.

So I am trying to find a pair of Isotoner gloves for my sister for Xmas. They have leather or suede on the back and spandex on the palm. Not only can I not find them anywhere in Halifax, but I can't find anywhere online that ships to Canada. They do have them at Target, so I emailed a friend to see if I could ship them to her and she could ship them on to me. What a pain in the butt.
mac has started singing "Shake Shake Sonora. Shake your bottom down." seriously.
Mac is killing me with the cuteness and the hilarious musical choice.
Sara, the resemblance is really striking!
Tomorrow, we're getting a "weather bomb." Oh yay...
Thanks Consuela. That helps.
