Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Man, this is why I don't like to read hardcover books -- I'm going to have some time to kill outside of my house later, but my damn book is too heavy to carry!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You mean 9th and Hennepin, right? That area is completely different than it was when Waits wrote that song.

You are correct.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's sad, really. They took a seedy part of town that wasn't hurtin' nobody (except for the occasional murder) and turned it all touristy and sports-bar-ish....

Ann, that's a ferret.

Is this person saying that the 1800's, Elizabethan era and vintage are all the same or is it just a poorly written sentance?

I think the sentence as written says that the 1800s and Elizabethan are the same, and that it is/they are a subset of "vintage."

On the other hand, it's an interview. So there could have been something lost in transcribing from the spoken word to the written page.

Is there really much surviving vintage clothing from the late 16th/early 17th centuries?

Art Crawl!!!

Is LJ being weird?

I tried to post and it just won't let me.

I was trying to post this story about an intrepid group of knitters from around the world that recreated a 100+ year old lace shawl pattern from two photographs.

But it wouldn't let me.

Not that anyone can easily get their hands on.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Matt, not much, but it does turn up every now and then.
