A Country Boys View On Fashion
I still can't understand it. After all these years, I
can't make a lick of sense out of what folks consider to
be in or out of fashion ? appropriate or inappropriate
attire or appearance. What was "in" last year, might be
"out" this year ? or it might be in but you need to
change what you wear with it. What was OK for spring and
summer probably won't work well for fall and winter -
weather considerations aside. And what is in was likely
already in somewhere around 20 or so years ago but then
it went out so something else could be in. And why don't
they just come right out and say FAKE fur instead of
trying to dress it up with...(related: Fashion Style)

Belly Rings: Sexy Is As Sexy Does
Body piercings have been the object of much controversy
-- besides being an artistic expression and a
celebration of one's physical endowments. The belly ring
is such a piece of jewelry.In times of old, body

Beyond Gold And Platinum: Mokume Gane
In many ways the "ultimate" noble metal that one might
consider for jewelry isn't gold or platinum but their
slightly tan colored cousin iridium. With the possible
exception of osmium (which is smelly and toxic) it's the
rarest non-radioactive element in the earth's crust --
several times more so than either gold or platinum. It's
even more chemically incorruptible than the other two,
it's heavier (17% denser than gold and 6% denser than
platinum), and it's much more scratch-resistant. There's
also the additional mystique that most if not all of the
iridium we mine comes from meteorite impacts and is
therefore extraterrestrial. Unfortuna...(related:
