Here’s a Series of Photos of Tom Brady and Gisele at a Swanky Ball in Manhattan

1-liner, All, Athletes and Celebrities Jason McIntyre May 4th. 2011, 1:00pm

Tom Brady and Gisele: The quarterback and his model wife went to a Fashion Ball in NYC Monday night. They go every year. This year, Brady opted for the long, slick look. No word if he danced or not. I didn’t see any other athletes in this slideshow, but I’m sure he had fun chatting up all the actresses. [Images via Getty]

Does anyone else find it annoying when people say “far and few between” instead of “few and far between?” My boss says this saying wrong on a daily basis and it makes me nuts.

That second picture makes me laugh. She’s doing this stupid model “kiss me” pose and Tom just looks confused and slightly irritated.
Also, I know Gisele had a hair person help her get ready. Could he/she not suggest a different styling option for Tom’s long hair?

I don’t think I’ve ever noticed anyone saying “far and few between.” Is that a common mistake or is it just your boss that does it?

I’ve heard a few people do it but not that often. Probably because the instances it can be used are few and far between.
/see what I did there?

far and few between? never heard that one. Have you tried a curse filled rant, right in his face? That may convey the message you want to send clearly enough, and it’s definitely in your skillset.

What does play it by ear even mean though? To the Google Machine!
22
SouvenirCity Says:

The phrase by ear goes back a long way in a figurative sense. It’s a metonym, the substitution of a word by another with which it is closely associated.
It’s in much the same style as Antony’s speech in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar: “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears”. He meant this figuratively, asking his audience to lend him the thing their ears contained, their function — in other words to listen to him, to hear him out. In phrases like by ear the process is taken one stage further: not merely the function of hearing but also being able to accurately reproduce a melody one has heard, without needing written music. So we have phrases like he has a good ear for music and she can play anything by ear.
The saying has been taken yet another step further away from anything literal when people use it to mean doing something in an extempore way, without planning, according to circumstances as they arise. If this is the sense in which your Japanese students encounter it, I’m not surprised that they find it puzzling.
Well… that’s not terribly exciting. I was hoping for more. Boooooo.

Speaking of word origins, I just learned about this one the other day. This is where we get “unraveling a mystery” from:
“Clue is a variant spelling of the now obsolete clew ‘ball of thread’, and its current application to ‘that which helps to solve a problem’, which originated in the early 17th century, is based on the notion of using (like Theseus in the Minotaur’s labyrinth) a ball of thread to show one the way out of an intricate maze one has entered. Clew itself goes back to Old English cliwan or cleowan, which may be related to claw.”

Tom’s hair stylist would of been best off playing it by year because For all intensive purposes their not the most attractive couple when one of them has a semen-slicked mop on top and the other.

You know, I get why this is ultimately the decision because the folks who don’t believe he’s dead won’t be swayed by a photograph. Still, I want to see them.

Gotta think that would be even worse than releasing them, right? Then it becomes a national security issue. At this point, as much as I want to see them, I prefer they remain concealed since that’s the decision that was ultimately reached.
