^Books. Got books in two rooms and boxes of 'em in my attic and garage.

< Haven't been able to find a pair of jeans to fit me in YEARS. Besides that low-rise thing (ugh!) there's enough room in the back of the waist to fit a purse into. I don't have big hips, but do have a well-defined waist. Why can't they make jeans to actually fit women's figures??? (Okay - rant over.)

V Anything about today's fashions that irritates you?

^ The price!

< Also, I live in a sort of no-man's land when it comes to clothes. The nearest mall is 35 min away, and although the stores are nice, they are referred to as "third stores." Which basically means they get the fashions that were current three years ago. At least, that's what it looks like. LOL Thank God for the Gap, and the net. The Gap makes the only jeans that fit me, and I can get most anything else from the net.

V Live in a fashion challenged town - or can you get anything from designer to Target?

^ Spoiled for choice. We have everything here from Chanel and Prada boutiques to the Goodwill thrift shop. But, I actually hate shopping for clothes.

< My wardrobe tends to be more "eccentric" than trendy.

V Favourite "odd" piece in your wardrobe?

^ Grey wool watch type cap from J Crew, which I got comfortable with wearing all the time, and now wear it a lot even when it's not cold.

> A friend tells me it makes me look like a White Muslim...

V What's the loudest color piece in your wardrobe?

Pauly caught a bullet

But it only hit his leg

Well it should have been a better shot

And got him in the head

They were all in love with dyin'

They were drinking from a fountain

That was pouring like an avalanche

Coming down the mountain

^ I have a green fuzzy mohair sweater that I've had since I was 17.

< I also have a mustard yellow cropped pea coat. No I don't wear the two together.

^Probably my yellow converse all stars.

< Don't go for loud, but have many "different" things

toss in my favorite leopard hat and gloves, an endless collection of earrings and a faded beat up "Bears" t shirt that I like to wear with my army jacket.

V Stripes, spots or solids?

^ Mod-stripe pants (which I sometimes wear with floral-print tops when I'm feeling very psychedaelic.)

< My Converse All-Stars are red (trying to tempt those angels that Elvis Costello talked about).

V In terms of vintage fashion, what era most appeals to you?

^ Oh man! Sometimes I watch old movies just for the clothes and furniture! I love art deco..those skin tight liquid looking sequined gowns and some stuff fromt the 40's and 50's.

< Then there's that red velvet riding costume with the hat... :lol:

and Captain's coats....sigh... :lol:

^ I can't think of any articles of clothing I've ever bought due to 'current fashion', if that's what is meant. I dress for practicality.

> One time, in an inner-city environment where I lived, I looked around in the Post Office, and noticed that every male in the place (I think eight or so), including myself, was wearing a used or surplus US Army jacket. Now that's fashion!

V I'll pass that along.

^ Well, aside from all those silk scarves, I'm also fond of shawls and costume jewellery bracelets.

< I have an authentic Victorian shawl that I haven't been brave enough to wear yet, because the silk has become very fragile.

V Do you have a piece of clothing, accessory, or jewellery that you fear is too fragile to wear?

^ Serbian Jelen beer (pivo).

> Every time I drink a beer I think of a Jelen (it's a little like Pilsner Urquell but much better). You cannot get it in the US that I'm aware of, and I've tried.

V Passing along, what's your alcoholic unobtainium?

^Fetzer Barrel Select Merlot. Almost no one carries it. Apparently they have to commit to several cases.

< A bottle of Louis XIII..but that's cause I can't afford it :lol:

V Ever have illegal but obtainable (er..so I hear) Jamaican White rum? (waaaaaaay overproof)

^ The kind that, after you drink it, eats it's way through your system, so you end up looking like Barbosa when he drinks the wine? Uh, that's what I've heard, anyway.

< Fell in love with an Italian wine they serve at the Olive Garden - found it at a local store, then a month later, they quite carrying it. :rolleyes: Can't find it anywhere local now.

V How far are you willing to go to get your favorite libation?

...schooners, islands, and maroons

and buccaneers and buried gold...
