I think I'm turning yuppie. I want my $140 Dubarry boat shoes. My $350 Barbour waxed cotton jacket. A sailboat. Ugh!

Chewing Wax:
Go ahead. Buy the Irish boat shoes. $140 isn't that much.

Chewing Wax:
They'll last forever right?
(Wed Sep 4, 2002 - 1:01:07 pm)

Heruka:
I doubt it. But I was told by an independent source that they are the highest quality boat shoes available. Considering you pay $1200 for a jacket, I don't think $140 is too much. The Sperry's are hurting my feet these days. No arch support.

Heruka:
The Barbour jackets will last a lifetime. every couple of years they should be sent back to the factory to be rewaxed. Like boat shoes, they're casual but elegant. They're at home both at the club, or walking down a wooded path in autumn.

Do you keep your shoes sitting behind the toilet Heruka? they might get a bit wet back there.
(Wed Sep 4, 2002 - 1:30:33 pm)

Heruka:
Sadly, no. I keep them in a closet on the self. Seamus seems to enjoy shoes a bit too much. He has an old pair of mine that are his favorite chew toy.

Strangely, I find myself using the term trousers now instead of slacks or pants. I don't even know it. Someone usually points it out.

I think I'm going to skip this wedding thing. I just bought them a gift and had it sent to their house and I went to print out the invitation and I see that people are expected to bring their own food, except they're providing food for their family. They have some cheek. They set up this registry - with some very expensive things on it I might add - they have a bachelor party that Tom paid for which wasn't cheap, I bought her an expensive baby gift and I just bought them a wedding present and I look and see that this thing in Prospect Park isn't even a party - its like we're all meeting there - 45 people and bring your own food. Give me a break, that is just shocking bad manners. I'm done with them. I'm going to my nephews 2nd birthday party instead. Have you ever seen such bad manners? I'm full of rage. These two always have bad manners, I shouldn't be so surprised but this is a doozy.

Things on the back of the toilet always fall in for me, I dont know, the books, my toothbrush, the ashtray, the toaster. you know, shoes might not be safe there, mine wouldn't thats for sure.

Chewing Wax:
Bring your own food my ass

REally, can you believe that? I'm just shocked AND some people have to take the subway to get there, so they're supposed to lug their own stuff there? It makes no sense at all.
(Wed Sep 4, 2002 - 1:35:21 pm)

Detlef Sping:
Bring your own food?? are they insane???

3. PICNIC: if the weather is nice, we'll have a picnic at Prospect Park, we'll all go together (or better yet, in groups) from Eva's place, so don't worry about how to get there. Feel free to bring anything you want to eat/drink (AND A BLANKET). If you already know what you want to bring (let's say you make a killer potatoe salad or pork roast), feel free to let us know, so that we can organize things a little better, but if you don't, don't worry about it, we'll just go with the flow. We'll bring plates, cups, napkins and silverware for everybody. Please be aware that in this wonderful country of the free, we are not allowed to drink alcohol in public parks, so if you want to bring some buzz, try to do it in a discreet manner (smoking is still allowed though, Mr. Hitler-Bloomberg hasn't gotten his way yet). If the day sucks, we'll figure something out, so bring your chow and blankets anyway. For those of you flying in, don't worry about getting any food, we got you covered. 4. REGISTRY: we have registred at Bed, Bath and Beyond for some ideas on gifts, (so you don't have to go crazy trying to figure out what the h... to get us) feel free to get something from there (you can also do it online at bedbathandbeyond.com), get us something else, make something or don't get us anything at all. All we really want is your presence, your love and your money, i mean your friendshp.
