Not a long term threat, Ric, but very heart- and gut-wrenching to see your child like that, especially the first time. Get well soon Super Esmé! Sorry about the lice, Brent, but as for the knees you should see if Xavier has any knobs/bumps forming just below his knees. The Osgood Schlatter hit me around 7th or 8th grade and it was pretty brutal for awhile. I didn't have trouble bearing weight but the pain was awful at times.

You seem to be keeping the weight off so maybe it was best to skip the profiteroles.

My diagnosis: Osgood Schlatter Disease

Happy birthday Doug! Hope it was a great day and sorry we noticed kinda late! Cheers!

Big Congrat Vicki! Feel better Chris.

Congrat Justin. Seem like good deals to me, but what the heck do you mean about the TV pickup in 2 years? I haven't spent the time to set it up properly but the Marantz AV receiver pre/pro I bought seems good and I just added a used REL sub so I am looking forward to watching a bluray and seeing what the Oppo 105 and this thing can do. Just watching a few minutes of LOTR on HD cable proved that the sub fills the sound out A LOT. Happy I ran across this deal the other day.

Not as much as the last one.

Want. Now!

Big Congrat Bigguy!

Nice, Marc! You should have given yourself a scarier title like "cyber hunter" or "hackers' worst nightmare".

Hippitty Burpday young squire! Hope you have had and are still having a fantastic day. Cheers!

pain in the ass ripoff artists! report them to management and see if you can get any concessions out of them.

What they all said, Larry. Congrat on the inspection Dusty!

The Gravati shoes I have don't look like the ones I pasted above and the tux shoes are Ferragamos not Brioni.

Yay!

That's mostly greek to me, Vicki, but I understand the effort and the great results, so congrat and best of luck hitting your goal! Oh, and congrat to Stretch too! You're going to be a skinny sober person soon. Such a shame...

If you look really closely, are there some bugs in that shot?

I knew that hideous dress was familiar...

I like John Fluevog too.

How can it be that cheap? Are they horse rib-eyes?

Too late! Sorry, G-Man

For years I only bought Cole Hahn loafers, penny or tassel, but they slipped now that they are owned by Nike or whatever. I recently bought some dress clothes for the first time in a long time -- three suits, sport coat, tux, and most relevant here, three pairs of dress shoes. The tux shoes are Brioni (I think), and then a black pair by Gravati and a cordovan pair by Gaziano & Girling, all lace-ups. The Gravati pair look something like this: Here are the G&G pair, except they are in "vintage rioja" rather than this brown color called "vintage oak." Goofy names but beautiful and comfortable shoes.

Not quite as much bacon, but I am happily eating thus maple bacon donut:
