All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Hil, I don't think you should feel bad you explained the system in advance. It's not fair to everyone else to change it now. I mean, maybe not , but it just seems unfair to me when those who fall short but complain about it somehow get a benefit from their complaining.

Plus, do we really think he could have scored higher but chose not to because of your grading system information? I don't buy it. You do your best and that's your grade.

All you need is to have a Phantom show up dressed in red.
At the very least, a crashing chandelier...

I am such a gigantic dweeb.
There I am, writing along, and I throw in an offhand reference to Revlon's Cherries in the Snow lipstick. Which leads to me googling to doublecheck, because I'm almost certain that Cherries in the Snow was around in 1964, but I want to make absolutely sure and I knew that Fire and Ice had been around, so I could always use that, but I really, really wanted to use Cherries in the Snow.
Which led to reading about how Dorian Leigh was the model for both ad campaigns and was indeed, considered the first supermodel, only eclipsed by her little sister, Suzy Parker, who became the face of Coco Chanel and downloading pictures of both because they're so striking and very evocative of the two lead female characters. Oh, and how Charles Revson really, really freakin' hated Estee Lauder.
And... two hours later, I have ascertained that yes, Cherries in the Snow was available in 1964.
I iz dorktastic.

I should loan you my Charles Revson bio. Clearly.

Fire and Ice, Plei?
If I can't find a copy for myself, I might take you up on that. It sounded absolutely fascinating.
