Great buns and great bosom, but damn, those eyes and cheekbones were always her most alluring features, no matter how she dressed or how she was photographed.

I agree with everything written in this link, but the author(s) leave an important question unanswered, one that my wife and I disagree over. Should a BLT (or any sandwich, for that matter) be sliced in half before eating? She has convinced me that it does make eating sandwiches easier if they are sliced. But I often resist on principle.

Also, we use romaine lettuce. What do others use? I too say nix on the soft greens or iceberg.

Here's a shot of a Kiwi with his best friend. :D :D :D

Go to this link and you can stream both Episodes 1 and 2 on your computer. (I connect my laptop to my 47" TV for these occasions and to watch streaming Netflix.) Look in the upper right corner to make your choice from either of those, or to watch Episode 3, which airs live tonight.

Incidentally, you can do the same for much of PBS programming, should you fail to see or record shows such as Masterpiece Mystery and others when they appear initially.

I'll second this thought. I bought a new red Pinto "woodie" station wagon because I thought it looked pretty cool. More trouble with it than I care to relate in detail. Idled like it had two cylinders. Fit of doors, hood, etc., was laughable. You're insulting Zippo with that joke comparison.

What do you call 12 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?



A good start.

You can watch it here at your leisure.

And sacrifice all the wonderful fellowship that members experience in the group setting? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm sure that's how the blues musician Bo Diddley got his name. To see him play the Bo Diddley song (with his guitar and female group) in 1965, go here. It's a hoot.

Here's my favorite Hoppy: :-D :-D :-D :-D

This instantly reminded me of one of my favorite films...Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb", which appeared in 1964. The opening credits appear on a background of mid-air refueling while instrumental music plays "Try a Little Tenderness." Kubrick is plainly having some grim satirical fun by evoking the coitus-like image of the penetration and withdrawal of the fueling plane's probe. I was a film critic for many years, and Strangelove never ceases to impress me (and many others) with its biting--and highly comic--portrayal of the insanity of war.

You can watch those opening credits here:

Yikes! 666, eh? She must be a devil of a cat!

Just kidding. I'm a cat lover, and I could fall for this one in an instant. :)

I put this link on the Hog about two weeks ago, and I later added information that the bird is a Eurasian Goldfinch. I have since learned that these birds are in fact sold in Asian and Eastern Europe pet shops. Like parakeets in the U.S.! Of course I have no way of knowing if the finch in the video is a pet or a trusting wild bird. I'd put my money on "pet."

Was interior photography permitted? I love to visit Wright structures, and for some reason I never learned of this structure on my 3 visits to Philly.

One of those enlightened stores is my local Wegmans (no, the chain does not use an apostrophe). However, when I compliment a few of the store's cashiers for their employer's grammatical correctness on the matter of fewer vs. less, most of them give me a puzzled look...especially the younger ones.

For 20 years I taught expository writing to undergraduates, and I usually used a textbook that addressed this topic. I no longer teach, but if I did, I would ask my students to read something like this:

Sadly, most of my students, even the brighter ones, shared a common indifference to most discussions of acceptable usage. Many responded this way: "What difference does it make? You know what I mean, don't you?"

And if I persisted by asking a student, "You wouldn't say 'Today I put fewer coffee in my thermos bottle,' but you would say 'Today I put less coffee in my thermos bottle,' wouldn't you? So, when in doubt, trust your ear."

To which the student would reply, "What's a thermos bottle?" :)
