This:

"It’s better if old men cut your hair. Ask for Sammy at the Mandarin Oriental Barbershop in Hong Kong. He can share his experiences of the Japanese occupation, or just give you a copy of Playboy."

Seems to directly contradict this:

"Place-dropping is worse than-name dropping."

Too right.

These are my faves:

• Desserts are for women. Order one and pretend you don’t mind that she’s eating yours.
  Buy a tuxedo before you are thirty. Stay that size.
  One girlfriend at a time is probably enough.

And I INVENTED this:

Don’t ever say, “it is what it is.”

The bit about how lame it is to be feigned or actually pretentious and then the one about starting a wine collection for your child upon his birth -- uh.... Anyone else see a bit of a disconnect there?


On a different topic, how do you get underlined words to link to something? I thought you press the little globe with a link from a chain (Ha! Get it?!?), and type the words you want underlined either in the first popup box or the second one, but I tried it both ways and it didn't work either way.

The website at which I found the link calls him "a douchebag Dalai Lama."

People say they want other people to be consistent, but they really, really don't.

One of the co-authors is John Carney, a big-firm M&A lawyer turned business journalist. If you're on Twitter, follow him @Carney -- he's no @ReformedBroker, but he's pretty good.

I think it may vary by operating system. For me on my Dell with Windows XP (I know, but it works), I get a pop up after I hit the little globe/chain link that asks for the URL. When I enter it, then in the actual reply box, the URL is highlighted and that's where you put the words that become the underlined link. Other than the fact that I changed the [ and ] in the code to < and >, it looks like this:

<URL="http://www.google.com/">highlighted URL here becomes your clever phrase</URL>

Hope that helps!

Then I definitely gave him unsolicited fellatio.

When you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.

I would greatly like to be endorsed by as many of my friends as are bored enough to go to the effort for my expertise in oyster slurping, noodle slurping, and slurpee slurping.

no, that's the body of the Catholic god that needs to be swallowed. I'm pretty sure the Dalai Lama will take care of all sentient beings that have blown him, regardless of ingesting or not.
