    Nice guy's lament

    (and never ever ever ask) I thought people only did that in movies... It's actually pretty amazing how often my female friends tell me that the guy asked to kiss them as the date was ending. I'm always embarrassed for all of humanity.

    Moving to New York - NYC'ers please chime in

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Metro North was going to be doing something with the 125th/Lexington stop -- renovating it, closing it, etc. -- so it may not be the best locale. Find out whether this is true or not. If 125th street stop works, this is your best bet. Live either in...

    Nice guy's lament

    This is all just entertainment purposes, but here's a few nuggets of insight I have: 1. Remember that girls want to ******** as much as you do. Act accordingly.** 2. When spending time with girls, do what you want to do. Girls will follow. If the girl really wants to do something, she can...

    Name the best tasting wine you ever had.

    Wow. Care to share some of the dishes you are planning? I am interested as Gewurtz is such a stunning and unique wine. As a caveat, I'm very much a novice at all this stuff, and is still very much in the process of trying out what food types work well with what wines. As for the dishes, I'm...

    Name the best tasting wine you ever had.

    Hmmmm....I love Gewurtz, will have to look that up... Hopefully you can find them; I asked a local wine shop to track it down for me, and apparently one of the distributors found a case in France and is on the way here... They said early July, but so far no news. I talked to the importer, but...

    Name the best tasting wine you ever had.

    In terms of pure taste, it was probably a 1994 Dominus. However, in terms of the memories it evokes, my best tasting wine is a 2004 Gewurztraminer from Dopff & Irion, "Les Sorcieres", because it was my companion wine for my first 3-star Michelin experience at Ledoyen for an absurdly long and...

    Port recommendations

    I think our tastes may differ based on your affinity to Bin 27 (it tastes a bit volatile to me), but I really like Taylor's 2000 LBV. I'm not sure how much it is these days, but when I drank a lot of them, it was right around $20. For ports, considering that you get more alcohol for your buck...

    Why NY is Great!

    The whole point of dodgeball, kickball, softball, etc. leagues is to meet girls. Just to provide a counterbalance -- I recently talked with a friend of mine who's a pretty good looking girl who was planning on finding a summer fling through her kickball league. So yeah, girls do go to these...

    The 50 Best Restaurants in the World...

    my beef with korean food (no pun intended) is their sauce and marinades totally drown out any natural freshness of the food, raising the suspicion how much attention they pay to quality ingredients. I can handle it once in a while but not everyday. It's no coincidence most of the korean...

    Suggestions for a Trivia Team Name

    If you don't mind ripping off a name of a super-dominant team in the Connecticut area, I think "Vandelay Industries" is one of the best names.

    Things That Are Bothering You, Got You All Hibbeldy-Jibbeldy, or just downright pissed, RIGHT NOW!

    Wow, completely owned. This is why we have online anonymous identities. That picture..on "StyleForum" nonetheless. There's also something to be said for the immature brat who dug through to post that because apparently that was the best argument he had for him being a decent human being. So...

    High School Reunion

    I have my 10 year reunion coming up this year, and I'm definitely going. It'll be pretty fun (HS was in Long Island; the meet up will be rather casual, just meeting up at some random bar in NYC) seeing everyone. I guess my HS experience is somewhat unique in this way -- class or 130 at a public...

    Gmail: Why use it?

    I love gmail, having been an early adopter. In addition to all the things others have mentioned, I find their blackberry mobile application very good and easy to use. And I am going to have gmail in europe with quick and easy access, which is nice indeed.

    Solo Traveler to London/Paris looking for recommendations

    (Paris) You should try to pick up some awesome croissants (in the morning) and macaroons (any time) from Peire Herme. There are several other world-class pasticeries in the neighborhood also: Jean Paul Hevin, Sadaharu Aoki and Patrick Roger. Pick up some sweets and have a picnic in Jardin du...

    Solo Traveler to London/Paris looking for recommendations

    I'll be in Paris from March 4 to 9th. (and London from 2/28 to 3/4 and SF from 3/10 to 3/15) I have a few recommendations so I think I can manage, but if anyone has places that elicit "this is a totally awesome place you should check out" in Paris, that would be very nice.

    How long to stay at first job?

    I mostly agree with lawyerdad on this issue (and frankly, most issues), but the key is that you have to start looking. Leaving your first job after 6months may not be ideal, but if you stay at the next one for 2+ years, that's a moot point anyway. And in my opinion, you absolutely should not...

    Solo Traveler to London/Paris looking for recommendations

    Thanks for the responses -- I think I'll check out the Landmark first, and if I have other free days, Claridges and a few others. I understand what you're saying, VKK, and I certainly will be doing a lot of pints/pies thing at pubs as well; I thought it would be a nice change, after, say, I hit...

    Solo Traveler to London/Paris looking for recommendations

    So I will be traveling to London, Paris and San Francisco, each for about 5 days each, meeting up with random friends and such. However, for good chunks of time, I'm going to do things on my own, mostly "touristy" things like go to museums, random sights and sartorial destinations (including a...
