As you have probably inferred, Jack listed them in order of wardrobe coolness as measured by schoolmates, notwithstanding any futile insistence by such parents as my mother that the tiger was exactly the same thing as the alligator.
My mother was honest enough not to attempt to make the same argument for the dragon.

I like polo but it is played out.

But, in good news for Thurgreed, they are eating thoroughbred horses in record numbers in France and Belgium. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article...372448,00.html

Le Tigres were the shit for a good year and a half in NYC (during junior high).

If you didn't sport Le Tigres with Lee jeans,* you could fucking forget it. Lees were so popular that the knockoff brands started paying people $5 for any Lee patch they brought in.

(For those of you who can't figure out what happened at schools near the projects, let me just say that lots of people were sportin' patchless Lees until the following fall when Moms would spring for new school clothes.**)

*Pin stripe, no less.

**Only had my Lee patch pulled once. But the scars are still there. <sniff.>

Understandable; it must be a bitch to move that fancy-pants bed of yours.

Maybe when he claps his hands three times it sprouts fairy wings and flies around.

Most of my floors are hardwood. I have a rug in the living room that I hate and another in my TV room. I have an earlier version of this, and it's a pain in the ass to use, so I don't really know if I'd recommend it. It's supposed to be for hardwoods, but you have to put in a cleaner, then vacuum all the loose dry stuff off the floor, then squirt the cleaner on the floor and then vacuum all the wet stuff off the floor.

I just end up sweeping a lot.

Is that from ARod's fake speech on Page2? If not, then I don't get it.

Either way, Boston is in 3rd place.

For hardwoods, I've found that if you spill liquids, the wetness looks shiny, and shiny looks clean.
