    Unpopular movie opinions...

    I didn't once crack a smile while watching The Hangover. I thought the earlier-made Very Bad Things, which had a very similar theme, was the more entertaining film. It made me laugh, anyway.

    What Are You Reading

    I just finished reading Pirate Coast, by Richard Zacks. The book tells the story of the 1803 military expedition, lead by The rather ferocious and indomitable William Eaton, to rescue American sailors held by the Pasha of Tripoli, on the Barbary Coast - an exciting tale.

    Derby of San Francisco Jackets

    Hi Bolts. Thanks for the post on the Derby Jacket. By coincidence I was thinking about these jackets not long ago, but I couldn't remember the name of the them. When I was a kid living just a few blocks away from San Francisco State College in the late '60s, the "tuff guys" generally...

    Black Mold Spots on Hat's Leather Sweatband

    In my overzealousness to avoid moth damage to one of my favorite vintage hats, I stowed it away in a rather tightly sealed archival storage box, without consideration for the moisture I sealed away with the hat. Unfortunately, these little dark spots have developed on the thin beige-colored...

    Orignal A-2 Jacket Care

    I have an original WW2 Rough Wear A-2, and I was wondering whether it was best to keep it on a hanger or laid out flat in a drawer or trunk? Any recommendations would be appreciated.
