This guy who sat in the next office at work was from Smithtown. Through his endless stream of L.I. stories, I lived on Long Island vicariously. He kept telling me over and over that I would fit in there. (But it's too cold) His wife was a pain the ass. She would come in to the office and complain to me about California...constantly. I would just nod. They moved back. Then they returned. When they got back to L.I., she missed California. Poor guy...he acted like he was tough, but he was really P.W.'d. One time, his wife brought me back a phone directory from L.I. called "The Jewish 411." She knew I'd bust a gut over it.

Let's hear some. Good or bad. Doesn't matter. Las Vegas...long weekend...not that warm, shucks...love the starkness of the desert landscape but wouldn't want to live there....there's a lot of low-life around (what do you expect in a gambling based town). Took the last flight back up and it ran late, so today at work was B...A....D.

Sorry, Lauren, was expecting something I could help with. Nice TeeTh...that was from the picture you posted standing with your boyfriend. A good smile...your dentist/ortho would be proud. I just had braces "installed" 2 months ago. Good luck with your search for this topic/item.

Q: What do tornadoes and divorces in Appalachia have in common? A: Either way, you lose the mobile home. Pretty hair? Good Gawd, PB!

I was in Las Vegas from Friday PM through Sunday evening. I had a chance to look at a lot of Cadillacs on the road (love the name of that dealer in Vegas -- Cashman Cadillac), mostly CTSs and some STSs. In general, I think the slab sides are great ,as are the angular lenses and grilles up front. I think, though, that the rear decks and the taillights that have to make the stretch from the bumper up to reach the deck lid are too tall. The whole composition at the rear of the car is too chunky. To go along with this tallness, I think that, from a test sit, the center stack is also too tall and the general feeling behind the wheel of a CTS and STS is a bit claustrophobic. I'm 5-10 and I like a lower cowl in front of me. Other reviewers have also commented on the tallness (is this a word) of the instrument panel. Your thoughts?

Four things: 1. Need some more nicknames for some of the towns...i.e. Massapequa = Matzah-pizza 2. You know that Great Egg and Little Egg in "The Great Gatsby" is Great Neck and Little Neck - I think. 3. New Yorkers love to complain. Period. Who is worse? Jews or Italians? I think the former, but both are obnoxious. A bi-coastal from New York: While in Los Angeles: there's no culture heah. you can't get good food at 2 am heah. the portions are too small heah. While in New York: the weather is awful heah. there's too many people heah. yada yada yada 4. Change at Jamaica - don't get it. Actually, Jamaica Estates is very nice. And thank you so much for the Jersey comment , being that it is the only place in the metro area in which I have resided (age 8 to 9).

So, tell me, did this auto show have seoul or not?

That's cool.

Chargerino, be good, ok? Then come back when you can! Las Vegas (1 day and counting...) A L S O Thanks for one of the best threads ever, "Word Association" ...as you can see, many of us are enjoying it and it has been running for a long time!

C'mon, ehaase, don't you find posts by Croc and Trinacriabob to be highly enlightening as well? :AH-HA_wink:

Reg, you can be so crass. The poor guy wants some SOLID advice to lift his morale, not your "it's all pink once you're inside" frame of mind. :AH-HA_wink:

It is an INfinitesimal difference in height. It shouldn't matter. She should like you for everything else you have to offer and it's other things that will dictate the chemistry. Just go. You may like the way everything lays out on paper and find out there is no chemistry in person. Big deal.

Lauren, you have nice TeeTh.

For that kind of stuff, consider contacting what they call the Zone Manager. I'd let it go at this iteration, but if it keeps up, you would have to go up a level or two. But pick your battles. As I mature, I have a lot less problem getting people into trouble for not doing their jobs or for abusing power ... if they deserve it.

I'm glad you agree. One of the slickest movies ever. Kathleen has been put out to pasture...the matronly factor has set in.

You get your hair DONE? What are you...a "blue hair" on Medicare? Nick, I'm pulling your leg!Why are you guys even fussing with color? Especially college age.

Bingo, 90210! Seen it 9x and did not catch that faux pas (which two characters)? William Hurt on the pier and who else? The sister-in-law in the lawyer's conference room? Oscar, the black chief of police in the town, had the best lines! The inflection sure helped.

Night time swims + New England coastline = first 20 minutes of "Jaws." I think you were probably so "anesthesized" that you wouldn't have felt anything anyway.

Femme fatale, in a bar, taking a long drag on her cigarette: "Most men are like little boys...once they get a whiff of it, they trail you like a hound." Actress and Movie?

I don't see many guys working at Great Clips. And I do like my Great Clips coupon when it comes in the coupon pack. Bottom line: chicks have cut my hair about 90+% of the time.About paying a lot: The worst f*c*i*g haircuts I have ever gotten were at these name chi-chi salons in Florence, Italy where my cousins went. The worst, bar none, and they cost 2x as much as what I pay here. Plus, with the kind of hair I have, you can hide the mistakes, so I will not pay over $ 12 for a haircut.
