The "Cut Direct" "For one person to look directly at another and not acknowledge the other's bow is a breach of civility that only gravest cause can warrant. Therefore one must be careful not to confuse poor sight or a forgetful memory with an intentional cut. Anyone whose eyes are not sharp or who is not quick of memory can all too easily fail to recognize good friends as well as newly made acquaintances by whom they were much attracted. This does not excuse the bad memory, but it explains the unintended rudeness. A "cut" is very different. It is a direct stare of blank refusal, and is not only insulting to its victim but embarrassing to every witness. Happily it is practically unknown in polite society." - Etiquette, Emily Post, 1945 "Any word. Click it. Get information." - I wish I had half the energy of the nbci.com quick click chick. She's got some smooth pointing moves that I'd like to incorporate into my repertoire. 1.0 Bedrooms, 1.0 Baths, $299,000. Just up the street. A bargain. No? I wish that photobooth.org would update. It's such a great site. More, more, more! Friday? Life in letterbox. |
