...classier establishments on this list, The Kells was recently redone with mahogany paneling and modern-looking circular tables. But with dollar drafts on Wednesdays and a huge dance floor with great tunes, no one’s expecting you to keep your dignity. Right down the street, Great Scott’s used to be another Wednesday night hot spot, but after being shut down multiple times in the past year for its tendency to let in underagers, the Kells is probably a better...
...edition suffered from a junky interior; the new version feels classier, with such options as an aluminum-ribbed dashboard, chrome-ringed air vents and red-and-charcoal leather seats. One funky touch: you can backlight the instrument cluster in one of more than 125 colors...

On their first album, they eschewed the use of vocals (classy), but for “The Power Out”, their debut album for indie label Beggars Group, frontwoman Verity Susman (classier) has contributed vocals in four different languages (classiest).

...states of dishabille. For cinephiles with an itch for, say, Kathy Bates in ?About Schmidt,? or Dame Judi Dench in her unbuttoned youth - not to mention early Kelly Preston and middle-period Linda Blair - these are the places to scratch. Studying these photos may seem infra dig to my classier readers. But if doctoral students can prepare dissertations on 60s soft-core directors like Joe Sarno and Doris Wishman (and they do), then it makes sense to drop the persiflage and admit that beautiful women are worth looking at ... again, I insist, for research purposes only. Obsession, after...
