A Cool, Dry Place
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120642/ These critics didn't particulary like the idea either. I like Vince Vaughn's work and thought it was marginally better than they credited. [jurist, Dec 15 2004]

I thought it was going to be a funky lounge club in Salt Lake City. |

[marked-for-deletion] air conditioned, temperature controlled boxes are widely known to exist. |
|
| |
Temperature controlled medecine cabinets exist in hospital and pharmacological settings but I'm not aware of a general consumer medicine cabinet like this. |
|
| |
Do any reasonably-priced temperature-controlled cabinets exist that provide both dehumidification and ventilation? Such a thing would seem to be 'the ticket' for storing acetate home movies. |

would a humidor do the trick ? |

I don't get this, I wanna, but I don't. |

"A Cool, Dry Place" was a movie that starred Vince Vaughn. [link] |

This idea might have fared better had it hewn closer to the Hemingway-esque. It could have riffed on Hemingway's service in the Ambulance Corps, his obsession with trauma, and finally the short story "A Clean, Well-Lighted Place. [second link] Instead, it left me longing for bull fights, clean gauze, pretty nurses, and, perhaps, a glass of Spanish brandy. |

I have purchased a few books at "A Clean, Well Lighted Place for Books" in Larkspur Landing back when I used to find myself frequently in Marin. |

'A cool, dry place.' is what the storage instructions say on the back of pills (and for that matter peanuts, cornflakes etc) Sometimes widely known to exist as a refrigerator (or fridge in the UK) which is, essentially an air-conditioned cabinet of sorts for the storage of things in a cool, unmoist manner. With that in mind I second [nelip]'s[murked-for-dilation] |

Though, on seeing the category, the bathroom is not normally the place where you'd find a fridge, and a mini one for storing medicines might be a decent - and original idea. With that in my I edit my [mfd] [+] |

I like this. 'Store in a cool, dry place.' _Everything_ needs storing in a cool dry place, except those things that need to be stored in a refrigerator and consumed within three days of opening. It would need to have the words 'A Cool Dry Place' on the door in big neon letters (hitchhikers' guide-stylee). And you could relax without the constant worry of wondering whether the place you put the parsnips was cool and dry enough. |

The original cool dry place was the pantry, of course. When I build my dream home, it will have a large pantry, and I will put the words 'A cool, dry place' on the door in big letters. |

I will also have feasts every three days after shopping. |
