Members alphanguy74 Posted October 13, 2010 Members Share Posted October 13, 2010 Well... i'm not a tropical person, either. But I certainly understand the love of places such a Hawaii, Fiji... when I speak of green, I just mean places that have grass and trees, Martha's vineyard, up the coast of Maine, upstate New York. I just don't understand the appeal of arid climates, unless of course, you are next to the sea... that I TOTALLY get, the Meditteranean coast is BEAUTIFUL. Yes, I've heard of the meditternean diet, but you can eat that anywhere you live. Although olive oil is not my cup of tea, so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted October 13, 2010 Members Share Posted October 13, 2010 Oh, see, those aren't just shutters for the windows...all the windows that have shutters on them are French doors, they all open completely and need covering in stormy weather and during the year when the house is closed.

Members Sylph Posted October 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hawaii and Fiji and the like are seen as "vulgar" and trashy. Too splashy. Though, many rich people own a tropical island somewhere, but rarely visit. As for the diet, I wasn't aiming for that. Of course you can eat Siberian food in the middle of Indonesia, but dieticians recommend that you eat seasonal food and according to your environment (which is why Siberian in Indonesia is idiotic and so is Mediterranean in Greenland). I brought it up because it's as if you implied it's unhealthy to live there (arid, sun damage etc.). Perhaps I was mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted October 13, 2010 Members Share Posted October 13, 2010 Oh no.. I didn't mean that it was unhealthy to live there. Not at all. What I meant by the dryness was premature aging of your skin, that's all. But as I understand it, arid climates are better for people with respiratory issues, however. And I agree seasonal local food IS the way to go, aboslutely. As a matter of fact, I just dug my sweet potatoes a couple days ago, some are almost as big as footballs! Hawaii and Fiji too splashy? Well, honey... give me splash, I have no need to live a beige life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted October 13, 2010 Members Share Posted October 13, 2010 Ok... so now I get it. I couldn't see they were french doors from the distance of the shot. But since the home is in France, I guess it stand to reason that one would have many French doors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted October 24, 2010 Members Share Posted October 24, 2010 Why the name change for this thread? Because when I saw "Great Women of Soaps" I was about to add Mona Kane Tyler, but I don't think that's what we're going for here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted October 24, 2010 Author Members Share Posted October 24, 2010 I know it's kind of blah — and, BTW, I requested it – but the other one was awful too in its own way. Then add that typo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 24, 2010 Members Share Posted October 24, 2010 Don't forget about the wonderful Ada Davis McGowan Hobson. Look at her glamorous outfit here -- I think Elvis once wore this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-9_iQnE1ag&feature=list_related&list=SL&playnext=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted October 24, 2010 Members Share Posted October 24, 2010 LOL, I was expecting Ada's collar to be a little more popped. I'm too impatient to watch the whole thing, but is that guy with the curlyish hair Charlie from AMC? Looks like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
