Bistro Bijou

[unpredictablebijou]

Thanks, I had salsa'd pork chops, corn fritters and a salad for dinner, already. The merlot is perfect though.

Did you know your Victor link is dead? It's okay, I googled images of them both and I'm still LOL'ing.

Feh. It was a good one of his eyebrows too.

However I think I found an even funnier one. Fixed now, I hope.

And hey, don't you remember the old ad slogan?

there's always room for Johnny Weismuller.

bj

eta: I must be off. (I can hear assent from the crowd) no, I mean I'm leaving. In keeping with the eyebrow theme, here's your evening's hostess.

I wonder if eyebrows traumatize LeBroz as much as beards do.

 

[champagne1982]

Now, then... after a round of googling I'm drawn back to Sunday afternoon movies. It's a good thing Tarzan didn't have complicated dialogue, I'm not sure he would have sold so many movies otherwise.

eta: BTW that is the least NA native image I have ever seen.

 

[Homburg]

Songs in the key of Uh.

Yeah, I could probably fuck to that. But for angry fucking music I tend to go to the source.

bj

Source? Bah. Lots of angry music before that. That's good and angry though.

I think he still would have - there is Maureen OSullivan to be considered.

AND her loincloth, for that matter. The loincloth could have gotten a film all on its own, I'm thinking.

bj

ok I'm really going now. You and Hommie can talk eyebrows, reckless and otherwise, over some more merlot.

 

[unpredictablebijou]

Source? Bah. Lots of angry music before that. That's good and angry though.

Bah me no Bahs, young man. I'm fully aware of my musical history.

I didn't say ORIGINAL. That would probably be something entirely other. Like Mozart. I just said source. As in, raw, uncontaminated, pure, uncut and straight outta the mine.

saw them live, yes I truly did. For my birthday. And Trent Reznor is just as hot even when he's a tiny speck at the other end of a stadium.

Bah. I've got more grey than you do. And, honestly, I was just feeling contrary.

 

[UnderYourSpell]

Phewwww I have just booked a cruise to Venice and I don't know if I am on a high to be going or totally crashed at the amount I have to pay out. I was very good tho and haggled over the price and got a fair bit knocked off think the chap thought I had the cheek of the devil but you gotta try havent you?

hiya BJ

Someone asked you the other day, what type biz you are in, I had an inkling...

anyway, I have a question, what do you have, by way of tourmaline, in stock? you can answer by email if you prefer..


years ago, there was a place, like yours, I imagine, called Tilly's. They specialized in bulk uncut stones and beaded necklaces, made from anything your heart could desire. I had a 22 inch rough cut tourmaline necklace I wore for years and years,then my niece broke it and scattered the beads to high heaven

It cost somewhere around 25 bucks, if I remember correctly..anyway, I miss my beads and Tilly's is gone

mmmm. tourmaline.

oh yes I DO have tourmaline, but of course, but I won't clog up the bistro with actual bid-ness. We'll chat, darlin'.

In the meantime, o hai! It's Friday! woot!

Time for shenanigans.

But first, some gratuitous, off-schedule leg-humping. Not only is RhymeFairy a damn fine poet with a great deal of solid work, s/he is also an amiable soul, courteous and well-spoken, and has intelligent things to say in various dialogues. More to the point, the AV's recently have made me slaver in really feral ways. So there's that.

Now then.

The Bistro Friday. I dunno, what are y'all in the mood for?

How bout a Snooty Martini Party?

Dig out your smoking jacket, your feather boa, your foot-long cigarette holder, possibly even your fez, if that's your idea of a good time.

Our martinis range from the sublime to the ridiculous. The traditional is made with only a hint of vermouth, and unless you're a plebe who actually likes the taste of bruised gin, don't order it "shaken, not stirred," I don't care HOW cool 007 is.

Bistro Dirty Martinis are extremely dirty, as one might expect. Positively pornographic. And the Cosmos come with the requisite $600 pink stilettos and a lipstick smear on the glass.

Here's a damn fine example of a fez. I'm hoping this might tempt the monkey man back

And your MC and entertainment for the night. Hom oughta really appreciate this.

bienvenue a Vendredi

Well alrighty then. I'll have a chocolate martini. While I'm wearing these:

Yow. Za.

I'm not a shoe grrrl myself. I admire the shoe grrrls. I love the shoe grrrls. I can watch them all day. But shoes bewilder me. My stepmother and sister have to take me out and force me to buy stuff or all I would ever wear is this sort of thing.

hey, they're practical.

a frothy cold chocolate martini for the lady in the sexy shoes.

[unpredictablebijou]

Bah. I've got more grey than you do. And, honestly, I was just feeling contrary.

Contrary is your best side, darlin'. And you may have more grey, but I bet not MUCH more, and I've got a hell of a lot more mileage.

66. A good year for Karmann Ghias, science fiction TV series and really tall hair.

Though I am guy, I like shoes and, well, I'd like to link in my favorite shoes, but Brooks Brothers doesn't seem to let me. If you're curious, go here and look for "Cordovan Low Vamp Loafer." In burgundy, please.

Can't afford those motherfuckers, but what else are dreams for?

They're very nice with olive gabardine slacks and a blue blazer. New dark paisley socks. Maybe even a pocket square. Those seem to be way in vogue.

O, O, O, O. Drink order. Uh, amontillado sherry, rocks, lime twist? Small plate of almonds and cheese?

Stockhausen's Helicopter Quartet on the juke box? No? Would Whiskeytown be OK, then?

OK, then. I'm off to sit in the corner and read my dog-eared copy of Les Fleurs du mal.

Skoal!

I normally cannot wear shoes like that because they hurt way too much. Louboutin constructs his so they feel more like a wedge than a straight stilletto. You can't see that but it's hidden in there, so his shoes are actually pretty comforatble to wear. That's assuming one can afford the $700 + per pair. They sure are purty though, and I love his patented red sole. Tres sexy.

Unfortunately what I spend most of the winter in Maine in is something like this:

Actually just like that except mine are dark brown. Sex-say, huh?

I HATE shoes, hate hate hate them I have to be forced to wear them, and it makes my daughters cringe. I cant find a pic of what I wear, lol. I get 5 years out of a pair of REEbok princess and they still look new.

My oldest girl collects boots. She has a pair like the one in your pic, bj, and a pair of lineman's boots, she paid for those herself when she was 15. 250 bucks. haha. And a friend of hers gave her an authentic pair of Nazi jack boots he bought from ebay. I wore them once and it creeped me out.

anyway, I would have bet you were a shoe gal, cool that you aren't. sorta hippy

That's about right if you want you stay warm and not slip. The ll Bean Storm Chaser clogs I have are around 50 USD new, which is a bargain considering how well-made they are. I got mine at the Good Will store though (where I get most of my clothes) for 7.50.

I'm wild about that Good Will store. I dress better with what I find there than I ever have buying stuff new at Macy's, etc. And everything there is clean and gently used. They won't take stuff that's ripped or stained. I'll be shopping there for spring clothes soon. I can do a wardrobe for around 30 bucks. I that place.

PS We are going to see Obama speak this afternoon! I'm all excited!

 

[champagne1982]

I don't mind using the outer shell of a stranger's boot, but I would definitely truck down to the store and shop for liners. That's what gives 'em their cold rating anyway.

A man like you, sitting alone, well-dressed, possessing of excellent taste and obviously intelligent is not going to be left unmolested for long in this bar.

Mon esprit, tu te meus avec agilité!

If I weren't busy behind the bar you'd be in grave danger. Peril, even.

I like that sort of thing.

Yeah, me too. I even think they're kinda sexy on grrrls. When I look at a pair of shoes I consider how they would look if they were wayyyy up in the air, upside down.

Sure, stilettos are nice for that. But I think big 'ol chunky grrrl boots look pretty good that way too...

Well, pneumonia is decidedly NOT sexy, so I'm all for promoting the sexiness of the more practical stuff. Besides, warm fuzzy stuff is sexy in its way...

I'm with you on the shoe thing. In summer I have to have several spare pairs of shoes in the car because I'm constantly driving someplace and then realizing I'm barefoot and they don't let you in the grocery store that way.

I admire shoe grrrls. They seem to understand a whole area of feminine semiotics that I cannot grasp.

I love shoes. I have the perfect ankles for wearing high heels, but, now imagine someone with connective tissues that snap at a glance, I can't wear them for anything but up in the air.

It's all part of dressing for bed.

Well it's not like you want to actually walk much in those things anyway, right? Walking's not what they're for.

I too have been known to change my shoes for bedtime...

Think we should add shoes to the fridge poetry topics? Perhaps the shoe grrrls in here could teach me some stuff.
