    The End of Encylopedia Britannica

    I grew up with the 1976 World Book series at the house. It's still sitting on my parent's bookshelf. I'll grab the odd volume from the shelf when I go over there and it's all familiar. Amazing we could function and research things pre-interwebz. My kids (age 15 and 13) give me funny looks...

    I hope somebody gives them a good home. They appear to have been neglected.

    Dubbing, Mink Oil, Sno-Seal, etc: The Boot Treatment

    Great writeup, Undertow! Mine are a little over a month old, and are now more comfortable than nearly every other pair of shoes or boots I own. About a week after my purchase, I treated them with mink-oil (what I had at home already, and a recommended product on the Red Wing website) and it...

    Dubbing, Mink Oil, Sno-Seal, etc: The Boot Treatment

    The information below is copied and pasted directly from the Red Wing Heritage website page dealing with care of the oiled leather (Iron Rangers are oiled leather unless you purchase the Hawthorn in roughout leather). The Red Wing Leather Protector mentioned below is similar to Obenauf's or Sno...

    Dubbing, Mink Oil, Sno-Seal, etc: The Boot Treatment

    I've had a pair of Iron Rangers for about a month now, and absolutely love them. RW recommends their boot oil or mink oil on their website for oiled leathers (the amber harness color is an oiled leather). Also, the RW store will oil your boots for free if you take them up there. If you go...

    Cowboy Boots

    I've always been a big fan of Tony Lama boots. I owned a pair of bullhide western heels for close to 30 years before multiple resolings just made it to where they wouldn't fit any longer. I've got a pair of TL shrunken shoulder Stockmans and a pair of Dan Post black cherry Kangaroo ropers that...

    Well played, gents! I hope you get as many years and as many memories out of yours as I have with mine.

    Hunting Boots are all the rage

    Mine performed admirably in that role back in the day as well. I guess they've grown up and matured through the years just like their owner...

    Hunting Boots are all the rage

    I've had my 8" LL Bean Maine Hunting Boots since 1985 when I went away to college. I needed something to deal with the snow that Lubbock, TX (Texas Tech University) received every year. I still use them as my hunting and foul weather boots. They've gone back to LL Bean to be resoled (new...

    The Ernest Hemingway Thread

    I've got a VERY worn copy of The Old Man and the Sea I carried for years in my briefcase to pass the time in airport terminals, etc. I've probably read it 40-50 times through the years, can quote most of it, and still find it fascinating to this day. I am not so much a fan of his other novels...
