Enough already! Just buy a frickin' tuxedo, maybe Bigsby & Kruthers is having a post-holiday sale.

This convo is so 2000 and even then it was so 1999.

Oh come now.

This conversation is eternal.

Who do you think you are, Bill Clinton?

I don't play the saxaphone. Trumpet, baby.

Plus, I have better taste.

Right. Would you all rather have a discussion over whether Lands' End or LLBean makes a better blue-oxford-button-down-and-khaki combo for Casual Friday at the office?

Coltrane should break the BS cycle, wear the black suit.....

I don't even own a black suit. If you ask me -- no one did, but let's pretend -- they're BORING. I understand that you can wear them everyday and no one will be any the wiser, although they will think that you are sleek and fashionable, but no thanks. Since Nordstrom is having their big sale, maybe someone can fill me in on what I'm missing.

Let's go backing to discussing Abba's party.

Address?

I figured you more for the Rusty Trombone.

And not that I've ever tasted a Clinton, but this doesn't surprise me either.

Hoping you can help me with the Affleck Schadenfreudewatch. How did Paycheck do?

btw, the NYT did a pretty sweet job tearing him a new affhole.

Dear Paigow Princess:

The title of your last post, "Paging Str8" just makes no sense. For your information, "to page" someone, even someone like Str8, has a specific meaning, i.e. you need to use your phone to call their pager number. To clarify, you can't just write down "paging so-and-so". Perhaps what you meant to type was, "text messaging Str8"?

Please take this advice in the spirit of the season and not as an insult, as I was not flaming.

It made just over $19 million over the four day weekend, less than Cold Mountain, and much less than Lord of the Rings, but about what the so-called "industry experts" expected. So that just about covers Ben's paycheck. I don't think too many people will be signing Senor Lopez to $15M+ contracts anymore, but maybe they will. There's always another sucker around the corner.

How's the word of mouth around the office? The reviewers werent too kind to Mr Woo either. The movie has no legs right?

My sister and I were talking Revoltas this weekend and we both agreed that Affleck is the new Travolta. What she couldnt understand is how this guy hit the 20 million bracket or whatever it is in the first place. Has any film of his been a roaring success? He isnt that hot or that talented and without a big success, we dont know how he quite got there.

No. I would rather be making sweet, passionate love to you.

Or learning to become skilled at making and baking with Phyllo dough.

Or attending the Festival in the Desert in Mali.

But the tuxedo convo? It was stale by the time I got to reading the second letter of the first post on the subject. Maybe even before then.

But then, what do I know? I came very close to buying another pair of plaid pants over the holidays. By Sixty. Way cool. But, too tight in the thighs.

You are at that age where a man cannot get away with wearing plaid pants anymore yet isnt old enough to start wearing plaid pants. how are jeans looking on you? Do you have flat middle aged man ass yet?

Maybe I have intimacy "issues," but I find this to be an oxymoron, and generally think "making sweet love" or any variant thereof is about the squickiest phrase ever coined.

But the stuff about the phyllo dough is hot.

No dear, the squickiest phrase ever coined is Fleshy Mouth followed closely by Tittie Bar. Cognitive Minority places third. But thanks for playing.

It is indeed so 2000, especially because (perhaps you know this) Bigsby went belly up about then...

Just because you are a tired old spinster does not mean that I have to go quietly into the dark night.

Perhaps some day you will see me in plaid. Until that day, I kindly suggest you get back to your knitting and let those of us who know what we are doing continue doing whatever it is that those of us who know what we are doing do.

So long as they don't look too Caddyshack, buy away baby.

But if men in fine-wale navy cords with whales embroidered on them start flocking to you like bimbos to squat ugly rich guys, don't say I didn't warn you.
