Joe Hemrajani
The other day I checked to see when he'll be around my area. Another tailor that works for his company is going to be in DC in a couple of months. I attempted to check the website again to see if Joe would be there was well but I cannot access it this evening. Would you recommend that I... -

Do you need a vintage peanut?
My mom grew up in Suffolk, VA and many of her parents customers worked for Planters. Before the town had a Peanut Festival they had the "Harvest Festival." I think the peanut wrestling was quite popular. lol- Barry

Who Gives the Best Shave in NYC?
MK, I've heard that Paul Mole is a good place to go. I read on the "shave my face" forum that Lev and David are supposed to be the best. Also, like here, Boris at Art of Shaving had some great reviews. I haven't been to either so I'm just passing on the information from the other forums...- Barry

Accents, whats your Favourite?????
You are welcome. I was hoping to find the Tidewater accent but I didn't see it listed. I have a bit of that still but I moved when I was a kid and I lost most of it. I still call Norfolk "Nawfuk" and my Aunt is my "Auhnt," though. Barry- Barry

Accents, whats your Favourite?????
I was looking up some examples of accents in Virginia and came across a website. I thought some of you might like to see it. "The International Dialects of English Archive, IDEA, was created in 1997 as a repository of primary source recordings for actors and other artists in the performing...- Barry

What Are You Reading
I read that a couple of years ago and I really enjoyed it. Like you, I read it quickly. It was hard to put down. I usually don't keep up with new movie releases but it looks like it's in production.... Barry- Barry

A good friend's hat: Woodrow, 46 Picadilly
A friend of mine is interested in selling a black fedora that belonged to his father. The hat was purchased in London, probably back in the 1930s, possibly earlier. The felt is unbelievably soft and smooth. It's also a super lightweight hat and with the exception of the ribbon coming undone... -

A sad day for Washington, DC (two fires)
The two fire hydrants closest to the library were out of order as well. If I owned one of the multi-million dollar homes surrounding the library I would be extremely upset. Additionally, the Dumbarton Oaks Research Library (part of Harvard) is right down the street. Thankfully, that...- Barry

A sad day for Washington, DC (two fires)
Jake, I hope it's just a coincidence. The market is one of my favorite places. It's fun just to stroll around there with friends or a date after lunch at one of the nearby restaurants (I like Montmarte). Sadly, the Market Lunch is located in the South Hall along with some of the other...- Barry

Nutty Neighbors
James, It's really a pick-up - sort of one of those "jacked up" trucks that people go 4-wheeling in mud with. It's pretty big though - giant tires, etc. You can imagine what the tires do to a lawn. I forget what my grandmother said to him - she isn't one for messing around though. When...- Barry

Nutty Neighbors
"Front lawn paving" was a problem in certain parts of Northern Virginia. I'll bet it's happening in other areas as well. I believe there was an article in the Washington Post about recent immigrants moving in together to save money. The homeowners were paving 75%+ of their entire front lawns...- Barry

Modern "vintage" reads?
If you are open to reading graphic novels you might find some of Phillipe Berthet's work very interesting. I posted about this a while back. You can find English translations of his work. He has several detective novels and one series about featuring Betty Page which is a noted homage to...- Barry

Interesting read... The guy sounds like he's wholly self absorbed and a nightmare to have as a neighbor. If he's so sensitive to noise why would he hook up freight train horn and blast it? Geeze... Barry- Barry
