    Discussion: The Art Deco Society

    I have only been to one Art-Deco society event and one big swing-dance here in DC. Both events were nice and everyone at the "dancers table" at the swing dance was great-especially the women who put up with my terrible dancing skills :o. Barry

    Allen Edmonds sizing

    You need to take into consideration the last. I'm not sure if the sizing chart is on their website but you need to look at the four digit number (specifically, the last number, I think) for the shoe you in which you are interested. For example, I wear shoes ending in the number "8" which...

    Magnoli Clothiers: My new belted-back jacket

    Thanks guys... The trousers are Bill's Khakis gabardine (British Khaki, I think). The jacket might look a bit better with a darker pair of trousers. Either way, it's a fine jacket. It's comfortable, fits well and the price was right. Mr. Fox at W.M. Fox and Co. in DC took the...

    Magnoli's suits.

    I cannot comment on the suits. However, I ordered a back belted jacket (replica from the Chinatown movie) and it arrived today. I love it. The armholes are fine. I could have taken them a notch higher but the jacket is great! I'll have pictures posted sometime tomorrow in the afternoon...

    Display your library!

    I am using Delicious Library. I scan the books via barcode with my iSight cam. It doesn't pick up everything but for the most part it's great. Barry

    Nutty Neighbors

    About 12 years ago my folks moved. They rented a house while they were looking for a neaby home to purchase. Their neighbor raised the Confederate flag every morning and he owned a mean dog which roamed the neighborhood looking for people to bite. When I was growing up in the suburbs we had...

    The Taste of a City!

    Hem brought up Baltimore: I like to go to Faidley's at Lexington Market for crabcakes, oysters and beer (when I'm not driving). Since it's in a city market it's pretty much no frills. The food is excellent though and the lump crabcakes are gigantic. When I go to Baltimore I like to swing...

    storing fedoras

    I live in a smallish condo I decided to get a wardrobe for extra storage. I was using the shelves and then decided to remove the shevles store some of my hats in this wardrobe. It's probably overkill, but so far I like it. I need to buy some more hooks :). Barry
