Jeff Wyatt's Musings: This life, this love, fractures each and every one of us, challenging our beleaguered fates with graveyards of regret and sins left pleading for their atone. Our headstones amass, crossing from hillside to hillside yearning for infinities end, and when those distant horizons are finally greeted, find there remains a lifetime of roads left to tread. When we come to, and our interstice from these pasts and future presents begins its narrow, that is when we may revisit the moss which has subdued these stones. Each love, each fleeting opportunity, bestowed a marker to which we may once more place a lily, but never awake the old bones. For we know full well, no good can come from that which is better left laid to rest. MORE

The Quest of Josh: There’s a popular sentiment that all babies are cute. I don’t buy it. Of course there are cute babies. There are also babies that look like angry old men in miniature. I’ve seen babies that look like hairless cats, shaved Ewoks, and heartbroken raisins. My own baby picture looks like a sunburned Eskimo choking on a lemon. My brother, of course, was cute like babies are supposed to be cute. That’s fine. I got better with age. My brother now looks like Bigfoot. MORE

As one mentions the word “corset,” one of two images generally appears in the mind of anyone within earshot. The first is that of a pre-Civil War
debutante, as she grasps a post on her canopied bed, trying desperately to maintain balance while her housemaid struggles with full force to tighten the laces and cinch the already tiny waist to suit fashionable finicality. The second, more modern image, is that of sleek, shiny, black vinyl and steel clasps, as the dominatrix cracks her whip.
Gentlemen’s clubs, strip clubs, cabarets, topless bars, show clubs, Bada Bing! To many women, these words conjure up the worst possible images – lascivious dens of mostly naked women gyrating for dollars, meat markets where any sexual act can be bought for the right price. But, is that really the case? Are these clubs so scandalous, dirty and perverse, or are they simply pseudo-theatrical venues wherein many women are finding solace after a long week at the office, or visually seductive foreplay as part of a monogamous relationship?
The
French certainly know how to wear it. But, some of Jeff’s
favorite designs are actually German...Hugo Boss, to be
specific. What can we say? Mr. Wyatt is eclectically Euro!
When the weather is still too warm
for fall fashion, yet summer wearables leave you feeling naked, upscale
denim and natural fabrics provide a comfortable, yet stylish transition
from the heat of summer into the briskness of autumn. So, pull on those
jeans or skirts, don breathable shirts and top pieces, jazz it up with
light accessories and get ready for gorgeous fall colors and that
inevitable crispness in the air. 
There's
a revolution stirring amongst us. The sweetest, most delicious
revolution you've ever tasted.

The garage of Porsche restorer Christopher Radbill is as full of stories as it is cars – maybe more. Situated in the suburbs of West
Chester, Pennsylvania, among an innocuous cluster of light-industrial buildings along a quiet side road, Chris Radbill Automotive Repair and Restoration doesn’t overtly speak of the power of a classic automobile to
restore lives. That’s up to Radbill.
