"Snazzy"   I haven't heard that word in decades.  Snazzy.  Snazzy.   I don't think that I have ever seen it in print before.  I love that word.  My mother-in-law, who was born in Kansas City in 1912, used to use that word.  I have to use "snazzy" in conversation more often.  Dang!  That is one good word.

Is snazzy better or worse than spiffy?
Don't read too much into any of it. It's Rozner. He's a fucking idiot.

This is probably going to sound ridiculous, but I do remember the first time that the word snazzy made an impression on me.

It was the evening of my first communion, so I was in second grade I guess.
The whole family went out to dinner downtown to Fritzl's (which was one of THE places to go to in the early sixties) to celebrate the accomplishment.
Of course I was dressed up in my little navy blazer and a tie. A big boy tie not a clip on.

Sitting at the table next to us was Jimmy Durante, who I recognized from TV.
He soon realized what the event was we were celebrating and he called me over to his table.
During the course of our conversation he commented on how "snazzy" I was dressed and congratulated me.
I thought the whole thing was pretty groovy.

So yeah Stew, "snazzy" is the bee's knees in my book.

I love the story.  Jimmy Durante?  Whilikers!  I remember him from "The Man Who Came To Dinner."  A lolapalooza of a movie!

I have my snazzy checkbook out; I even can use that spiffy PayPal, should Fork prefer that. But instructions on where to send the $$, please?

DPD.

The contract has been faxed out, my credit card bitten. I'm going to send personal messages to all with payment instructions.

It's on, Ogdens.

When I read this (borrowing a line from Kerm) I giggled and flapped my hands in hysterics.

Well I'll contemplate payment methods as I wait for the e-mail.  I'm hoping for Peruvian bearer bonds.
