    Shopping With Prejudice

    As for them being like "Wal-Mart", thats not really true, Dell makes very little margin on sales compared to their competition (or Wal-Mart). They've always been satisfied with taking less profit for the chance to do higher volume. It's not that their products are cheaper to produce than...

    Ecco Shoes

    To put it shortly: If you want the real thing, you shall choose Jacoform, not Ecco. Both were invented in 1970s in Denmark and became know as "health shoes". Today Ecco has become a boring brand, but Jacoform is still a star. This model is an icon DK. I thought design was a Danish strong point.

    Shopping With Prejudice

    I have never been to an Olive Garden or any of the big chain fast food restaurants other than Mcdonalds a couple of times (with my 4 year old) becasue I am a snob. I wouldn't eat that food if it were free and zero calories. I've never been to a wal-mart. It's just completely off my radar...

    Lawyers, Pass on Advice to Younger Lawyers

    Getting back to the original questions, here are a few tips: 1) Pay mind to appearances. Dress slightly better than the other associates (not too hard usually). Try to get in before the partners and leave after, so you won't be seen coming and going (again, not too hard usually). 2) Let...

    Lawyers, Pass on Advice to Younger Lawyers

    Yeah, that can be really annoying. Nothing like being in the office for 9 hours, fielding a barrage of short phone calls and emails, running between partners' offices (and being made to stand around outside each of their offices for 15 minutes while they finish up a "just one minute" phone...

    There's a bespoke umbrella maker in Napoli, name of Mario Talarico. I've contemplated ordering an umbrella this year but for some reason the website is gone. they had an extensive choice of woods and colors for the canopy. Wonder what happened. A more famous Italian maker is Maglia

    Good and Reasonably Priced Shoe Trees?

    Trees are essential for good shoes. After a day's wear, your shoes have absrobed a fair amount of muisture. When you take them off and let them dry in the air, then, absent trees, the leather will tend to contract, the front end will curl up like dried lox and unsightly creases will appear. Some...

    RLPL Edward Greens for $325?

    I think we have a case for sending it back by mail and asking them to waive the postage, the shoes sent being completely different from both the picture and description on the website. At least will save me schlepping uptown to the mansion.
