for one of my films I'm doing a mock 1950s style dating educational film. and as research, I found this website where you can watch old real films that were shown in high schools on the etiquette of dating. they are hilarious. just type in the search for dating films, and let the amusement begin. my favorite is "Are You Popular" in which they express how girls that go parking aren't very popular!

This is more of a question... but I did find them on the web, so instead of starting a new thread -

I found these beautiful shoes online that would be PERFECT for me at my cousin's wedding this summer (I'm a bridesmaid, she wants us to wear silver shoes, any style). But I don't know how I feel about ordering clothing online, especially shoes. Does anyone have any experience with this? I've checked some stores around town and I haven't found any shoes that would work with the dress, really. Here are the shoes:

Nine West

I have bought Nine West shoes before and they fit my feet great and are very comfortable, so I'm not worried about the brand, really. Just ordering online. Who wouldn't after the Rojek debacle??? Any advice??

I buy stuff from the net all the time. but it looks as though you would be buying directly from Nine West, correct? so I'm sure you could just call them up and order from the phone. my mom still orders from catalogs that way, and it's safer than the net by far.

thanks for the advice emmie! I investigated further and found that there are a couple nine west stores in my town, so I might just call those stores or drive out there today. If they don't have the shoes in stock, I'll probably order off the website - it looks like they have a free return policy. thanks again!

if you like instant shoe gratification and expensive shoes then http://www.zappos.com is amazing. the two times my wife has ordered shoes, she ordered them at 9 pm and they arrived in my office the next day at 9 am.

Remember that nifty Citroen ad with the dancing Transformer?

I've heard about a "Kiss of Death" before, but this one... geez.
A 15-year-old girl with a peanut allergy died after kissing her boyfriend, who had just eaten a peanut butter snack, hospital officials said Monday.

And something completely different:

If I were his neighbour, I'd probably gone insane by now (or blind for that matter):

It's like Chevy Chase in "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation", only better.

When I saw that peanut butter story last week, I thought damn that kid is in for a lifetime of therapy.

There are two different neighborhoods in San Diego that go all out with the Christmas decorations. Hundreds of houses set up big displays in their yards.

You can see some pictures from 2003 here.

Someone took some pictures of the ones that were already set up at Christmas Card Lane this year:
