At what age does Mr. M think it is unacceptable to color the hair?
When I hit 60 am I suppose to dump my professional wardrobe and purchase a truck load of print dresses to wear with my orthopedic shoes?
Only joking (at least half way)
I'm sure you've seen the many posts at Fodors on just about everything you'd need to know about Cinque Terre. We really are thinking of going to England next year, so I need to replace my travel umbrella that got bent in the strong winds we encountered near Verdun last May!
I think he meant the dark color and length were a bit much for a woman of Teresa's age, plus he didn't think her hair style (such as it is) flatters her - he certainly doesn't object to coloring, no matter the age of the coloree (or I'll give him an earful about his older sister)!

Yes, I've been trolling Fodor's trying to figure out the best place to stay. There are so many things to consider in Cinque Terre. To get to some of the most-recommended hotels, one has to haul luggage up a steep cliff (no thanks). Car rental return offices are scarce.
The 5 towns are tiny and hotel rooms appear to reflect that. The fact that we prefer 2 single rooms or twin-bed rooms narrows the choices even more, given our budget. That's why I'm leaning toward Levanto...a 10 minute train ride from CT. It appears less hilly and there are more hotels/B&Bs to choose from.
I probably won't decide until well after the election...like I said, trip planning gives me a place to escape from the MSM's outrageously biased reporting.
Very heartening. Let Freedom Reign, indeed.
President Bush kicked liberal butt last night!! I also thought the first few minutes didn't seem to be going well, then he turned on the GWB we all know and love.
I have to point this Kerry move before I burst. I noticed this when I watched the debate the second time.
On the questions when Kerry gave a defensive answer. When he'd finish his screed, he'd whirl around on his heal and those long monkey arms would bow out (like if he had a skirt on and was holding the hem for a curtsy) and then thrust his arms to his sides.
Picture a 10-12 year old girl who just told off her friends for pointing out she's liar, she whirls around, arms stiff and then stomps off. It was the funniest thing to watch that lanky scarecrow pull a girlie temper tantrum! It was subtle but noticeable since he did it many times.
I think my favorite part was when he was instructed to look into the camera and promise he wouldn't raise taxes on wage earners that make less than 200k. hahahaha! He really blew that one!
Good morning, everyone - playing ketchup and trying to see if anyone "won" last evening...trip planning sounds like the way to go.
And hilly was EVERYWHERE milking blubba's recovery, a sure sigh of desperation!
Pubbie spinners need to pounce on this.
If I were running the team I would come up with something like this: Just listen to the pessimistic way my opponent talks about America today. Given a chance, he will find all kinds of reasons to reject that pledge he just made. (Insert record here.) When liberals look at problems, their natural instinct is to raise taxes and increase government. Kerry promises today that he won't raise taxes, but I'm telling you he will pounce on any excuse to do so. (Insert Clinton's solemn pledge of a middle class tax cut...first thing he did was find an excuse to raise taxes.)
Lovely!
I wanted to thank you so very, very much for locating my Tuxedo Dress for me. I bought 2 !!!!
I really wanted a black one, which was not available in my size, but am concerned it may not fit quite right in some important places. I bought the black one anyway,,, may have to wear a sports bra and take 4 Excederin in order to wear it.
Just in case the Black one won't work, I purchased the Platnium one, too..... in the correct size.
One of them will work, and the Platnium one would be be really smashing with the Blue Topaz and Pearl jewelry I had made with the loose stones my Hubby brought be from Brazil.
If the Black one doesn't work, it will give me a real incentive to get with the program and take some more pounds off.
Never in a million years did I ever think I would find this dress. Barrie Pace told me it was discontinued and no longer available. These dresses were actually available from Amazon dot com. I thought they sold books.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for finding these dresses for me.
Now to find shoes!!

And what haughty nerve, looking around the audience and declaring only three people there made over 200k, thank you mister elitist snob!
Had to extend voting for two hours in Afghanistan there's so many who want to vote! Woo hoo!
Is that sod attached to her feet?!
You mean that you don't have grass foot wear?
And a mask, when you go out?
(I worry about the mental health of fashion folk.)
October 6, 2004 To Trey Parker and Matt Stone,
I remember a cordial hello when you guys were beginning to be famous guys around Hollywood at some party. I remember several times getting a few giggles out of your humor. I remember not being bothered as you traded on my name among others to appear witty, above it all, and likeable to your crowd. I never mind being of service, in satire and silliness.
I do mind when anybody who doesn't have a child, doesn't have a child at war, or isn't or won't be in harm's way themselves, is encouraging that there's "no shame in not voting" "if you don't know what you're talking about" (Mr. Stone) without mentioning the shame of not knowing what your talking about, and encouraging people to know. You guys are talented young guys but alas, primarily young guys. It's all well to joke about me or whomever you choose. Not so well, to encourage irresponsibility that will ultimately lead to the disembowelment, mutilation, exploitation, and death of innocent people throughout the world. The vote matters to them. No one's ignorance, indcluding a couple of hip cross-dressers, is an excuse.
All best, and a sincere f*** you, [Way to show your superiority Sean!]
Sean Penn
P.S. Take this as a personal invitation from me to you (you can ask Dennis Miller along for the ride as well) to escort you on a trip, which I took last Christmas. We'll fly to Amman, Jordan and I'll ride with you in a (?) 12 hours through the Sunni Triangle into Fallujah and Baghdad and I'll show you around. When we return, make all the fun you want.
Developing...
Sean is so stupid, he seems to forget his last visit was epitome of propaganda from his favorite dictator Saddam.
It's hard to work the clutch in the car with sod shoes, so they're out but some days a mask might be a good idea. :-)
Standoff in Second Debate (Bush makes significant gains last night)
From www.gallup.com in an article entitled "Standoff in Second Debate:

Viewers also gave increased support to Bush on terrorism, initially favoring the president by 52% to 45%, but favoring him by an even larger margin after the debate, 56% to 39%.

Those shoes won't work.
Good Gracious! I wonder what they paid her to wear that get up?
