Classy photo and classy story. It's always strange and awkward when people misunderstand you lending them something for a gift. I for one never know how to put it...

So, is "Your Lordship" the new way we need to address thee?•• It's quite a step down from "God Among Men", but I guess it will suffice.

Is it always "Your Lordship" or is it sometimes "His Lordship"? (As in, "which of His Lordship's issues of Fantastic Four features your favorite inking?" Does the "His" and "your" agree in that sentence?)Then, sometimes I've read it's simply "My Lord" or "M'Lord". Can Americans get some instruction here?

That was a nice gesture on your neighbor's part about the tuxedo.

Interesting side-note: JB has shared many stories about the get-togethers and activities he and his neighbours participate in. No matter where he's lived, it seems that he has had a high degree of social interaction with his neighbours.
Hard to reconcile with the image of the reclusive antisocial misanthrope that the internet tells me he is.
