    What pens are we carrying today?

    I have a Sheaffer Lifetime Balance that I like to carry. Unfortunately, it's a "wet" writer. I am using Private Reserve, which is really wet, and I have also used Parker Quink, which is also wet but not as bad as Private Reserve. Can anyone recommend a rich blue ink that might be a little...

    BOARDWALK EMPIRE (HBO) - Everything you wanted to bootleg about the Show!

    Eli's coat is definitely an old hunting coat, typical of that time. Hand warmer pockets, shell pockets and a rear pocket. My guess is DuxBack but who knows how many companies made coats like that one back in the day..

    BOARDWALK EMPIRE (HBO) - Everything you wanted to bootleg about the Show!

    Wondered the same thing last night. Looks like vintage Filson or Duxback.

    I agree with bulldog: it has been said that the 30-30 has probably killed more deer in the US than all other cartridges combined. Model 94 was probably the most common rifle at the time. As for a .22, no idea. Probably a hardware store variety bolt action. Probably millions made by...

    BOARDWALK EMPIRE (HBO) - Everything you wanted to bootleg about the Show!

    The addition of Michael Kenneth Williams was a treat. He has to be one of my favorite actors but every time I see him I want to yell "Omar commin."

    Sleater was on Downton Abbey. He played a Duke who had a fling with one of the Abbey house footmen.

    BOARDWALK EMPIRE (HBO) - Everything you wanted to bootleg about the Show!

    The trajectory of last season continues so far this season...and I like it. Perhaps I missed something but why did Richard take Manny to Nucky? Just so Nuck knows he doesn't have to fear for his own safety? What I am starting to appreciate is the women being as ruthless as the men. Both...

    Looking for a truly classic navy suit.

    Thanks Paul. Tally, ho!

    Looking for a truly classic navy suit.

    Are the Oxxford suits on eBay for real? Seriously, all I can think of is Steve Martin in the re-boot of Father of the Bride in a Blue Armani suit.

    Looking for a truly classic navy suit.

    I refuse to shop Brooks Brothers for several reasons the biggest of which is the store in Somerset Mall in Troy, Michigan is staffed by the largest collection of a$$es I have ever encountered in one retail venue. Walking in the store is like walking into a museum of arrogant hucksters from the...

    Looking for a truly classic navy suit.

    I am not looking for anything truly vintage, just a classic American-made navy suit. For the past 20-years most of my suits have come from Jos. Banks and I can't say that I have been disappointed. However some have been better made than others. My biggest pet piece is the bubbling/wrinkling...

    Just picked up a Sig 1911 "Nightmare Carry" with a 4-1/4" barrel. Looks and feels smaller than my Kimber PRO CDP and with a bobtail grip it is much easier to carry. I liked my Kimber BUT it was almost too nice looking. The "Nightmare", not so much, looks all business.

    Idea needed: where to keep ticket stubs?

    Thanks. One thing to keep in mind is she has HUNDREDS of these stubs (some good movies, some not so good). Please keep the ideas coming. Cheers, JDG

    Idea needed: where to keep ticket stubs?

    My daughter loves movies and has a collection of ticket stubs from virtually every movie she has seen. She is especially fond of old movies. I would like to find something movie related to keep the ticket stubs in. I was thinking one of the glass boxes ticket takers used to use but I have...

    WTB: Movie Ticket Box

    Looking for a box used to collect ticket stubs at a theater. Open to suggestions. My goal is to find a theater related item to store the hundreds of movie ticket stubbs. Thanks.

    Show us your Guns!

    I have a .32 cal Ohio Vincent style rifle that is a tack driver out to about 25-yards. I love the smell of black powder smoke early in the morning in a squirrel woods. I like a .32; cheap to feed and fun to shoot BT cleaning that small bore is a pita. I would like to find just the right .32...

    "Unhappy Hipsters" Blog

    My experience with "Hipsters" is purely vicariously through my 18-year old daughter and we both agree; calling oneself a "hipster" is similar to one calling oneself "cool." If you have to tell people what "you are" then you probably aren't one. My observation of hipsters: they are like...

    "Unhappy Hipsters" Blog

    "Unhappy Hipster" I thought hipsters were supposed to be unhappy. Isn't that a major point of being a hipster - being unhappy so they can whine about everything?

    Hunting Boots are all the rage

    They were designed for function, not fashion, and they preform fairly well under modest conditions. I have worn mine for almost 40-years but the older I get the less I rely on them. Very little ankle support, virtually no arch support and the famous chain-link tread can be downright dangerous...
