Yesterday, on a whim, I decided to change up my hair. I decided to go with a classic cut, though I've worn my hair with kind of a messy look for a few years now. I asked the barber for tapered side and back with it longer and fuller on top, so that I can part on the side. I wear a suit and...- kindofblue

To go with my new seersucker
I bought a pair of used white bucks on ebay....after shipping, they cost about $18.00. I don't know if they are comfortable or of good quality, but they look decent from the picture and will do the job. I just hope they are comfortable, but if not, they will do until I find a better pair...- kindofblue

New Seersucker
I looked at e-bay, and none of the Polo ones are in my size. I will keep an eye out. I really want some white bucks, because that is the traditional look I am going for. :) Edit: I found some white bucks on e-bay.....they are used, but look to be in fairly good condition. They are...- kindofblue

Feathers in your hatbands?

Do you think there could be a second Great Depression?
I think it is a real possibility. If you have read anything about the Peak Oil theory, that is exactely what will happen as the supply of oil peaks and begins to decline through the years. At some point, the decline in oil supply will cause massive reprecussions through the world economy.- kindofblue

How did you start wearing hats?
I first got a driver's cap about a year ago. I started wearing it, and really grew attached to it. I saw a fedora in a store, and thought, I think I want a fedora. When I went back to buy it, it was gone. :( So I started looking on the internet, and came across vintage fedora's and loved...- kindofblue

The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
I wore my fedora this morning to the office. The oldest member of my firm saw me and said, "We are a rare breed." He wears fedoras also. I told him I had caught the bug. I think he enjoys having a young guy around that wears hats.- kindofblue

The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
I just bought a Fedora and have not worn it enough yet to provoke comments. But, I was wearing a driver's cap, and a kid asked me, "Where were you born?" I told her the town I was born in and she said, "Oh," and appeared dissapointed. I asked what was wrong, and she said that she was sure...- kindofblue
