M. (hristine Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Dear caliber, Over the weekend I bought a beautiful vintage wool Dior riding jacket. The problem is, it has shoulder pads. I have wide shoulders as it is, and consider shoulder pads overkill. I cut them out of all of my clothing, even during the 80s. What with 80s fashion coming back in style, should I cut them out of my new jacket as well? Still debating,Fashion-sense bereft in the midwest Link to post Share on other sites

Dear caliber, Over the weekend I bought a beautiful vintage wool Dior riding jacket. The problem is, it has shoulder pads. I have wide shoulders as it is, and consider shoulder pads overkill. I cut them out of all of my clothing, even during the 80s. What with 80s fashion coming back in style, should I cut them out of my new jacket as well? Still debating,Fashion-sense bereft in the midwest There is no way to answer this question without an obligatory request for pics "for evaluation purposes only." Dear caliber, Were you as surprised as I was to discover that ction is such a yardwork nerd? I was, mainly because his yard is approximately the size of this post editing box. calibuy, why can't I stop spending money on clothes? clothing addict, spender I would refer this question to my colleague Dr. Judy "Dreamin" Freud, who can probably do a better job. She's a chick, though, so you probably shouldn't trust her. It would be difficult to convince me that activities like shopping are as addictive as heroin, cocaine and other drugs are, although I certainly agree that they can be habit-forming.

caliber66 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 c66 - who are the new admins, and why wasn't I consider for the position? thanksnolan ryan's cheese fries I understand IRememberDBoon and jc4prez have signed on the run the board (into the ground). You're simply far to valuable as the board's conscience to be wasted as a mod. Jorge Fabregas's latest bid to become our Greek has ended in failure, and he has been designated our Armenian instead. Better luck next time, Graham, but at least you're not a filthy Uzbek. Ben, what s your favorite drunk food? sincerely, B1g pownermed Though I haven't had one in quite a long time, my favorite drunk food in college was the Gusburger (from the White Spot, a Charlottesville icon), which was a cheeseburger with a fried egg on top, with LTM onions, mustard, ketchup and relish. On more than one occasion, I "enjoyed" a Double Motorburger, which was a quadruple Gus with a slice of ham. I don't eat that stuff anymore, and the White Spot burned down (and I don't know whether or not it reopened), so lately I eat Honey Nut Cheerios when I'm drinking. Caliber - How much can you bench press? Yours, Scotland Yard Close to 400, 425 on a good day. Caliber - How much can you bench press? Yours, Scotland Yard Probably not more than 150. Dear caliber - What is wrong with Perm? ction Mind your damn bidness, Huffhines. Link to post Share on other sites
bobbob1313 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Is it bad that I'm skipping a class to talk about the Flaming Lips and drink soda?

caliber66 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Is it bad that I'm skipping a class to talk about the Flaming Lips and drink soda? (background info on class: It is Finite Math, the teacher doesn't take attendance, and she just reads from the book). My first semester, I skipped Astronomy 101 approximately 80% of the time and got an A-. My third semester, I attended only the midterm and final of How Things Work (Physics for Nonmajors) and got a B. Both classes were total guts and were pretty much entirely book-based. If you're not going to lose any insight by not going to class, you don't need to go. It's a good idea to go as often as you can stand it, though. (Full disclosure: as you may know, the "66" refers to the 0.66 GPA I got one semester, which was completely due to the fact that I never went to class.) Mr. Caliber, How's married life treating you? Any little-un's on the way? - an inquiring mind. Married life is treating me quite well. No kids currently planned, to my knowledge. Link to post Share on other sites

Elixir Sue Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Dear Caliber, I've had a pretty serious toothache for about 3 weeks now. Considering I have no dental insurance, should I just try to use an ice skate to remove it, a la Tom Hanks in Castaway? Thanks,ES Link to post Share on other sites
