If it was bespoke, he didn't rent it at all; it would have been custom-made.

Thanks, Paul! I've always wondered what the heck "bespoke" means. It sounds like it might mean "involved with someone," as in "That guy sure is cute; too bad he's already bespoke for."

Shows up in The New Yorker a lot, too, bespoke.

Actually ineedcrayons, you are right too, an older now archiac use for bespoke is to engaged to be married i.e. spoken for.

Hey, have you guys heard about it?  Well, you may not be too interested in this but I am really excited about it - The Dark Knight will be filming in Hong Kong in November and Heath is one of the actors going there. 

I would certainly be excited if he was going to be in my neck of the woods!

Maybe, just maybe, they are saying something else.  As in, "Heath Ledger is the bes' poke around these parts."
