    Hipsters, tourists, and "artisinal" devil crabs...

    I was just talking about something similar with a young friend last week. It's likely the overpriced chains and upscale joints are going to flounder pretty quickly. There's a whole generation with plenty of education and underemployed, with a lot of college debt, who can't afford to, and will...

    Hemingway Cap

    Mine is just too darn tight to wear. I'm an extreme long oval, and the elastic in back causes a serious dent in my forehead.

    Mandolin Trio

    Nice! Something I wish I knew more about. My SO is a musician and I've been thinking a mandolin would be a god gift.

    The DINER.

    I'll have the short stack and a side of eggs, up and over, coffee, black.

    Who do you use to host pictures on forums?

    I don't think you can take any images directly from iPhoto and place them anywhere, though that's an old enough version for me to be unsure. Usually, you have to highlight a picture and choose Export from the file menu. Then it becomes a format usable outside iPhoto. Upload File appears after...

    Vintage Finds Renovating Vintage Homes

    Interesting. And that's Harold Russel, who played Homer in The Best Years of Our Lives in 1946.

    Masters of Sex

    I restarted this last week and am now into season 2. I don't know what I found dull first time 'round, but I am certainly enjoying it now. A great story and all the clothes and cars and hats a person could want. My SO is now asking me to get a bunch of bowties, so there's a bonus.

    Show us your vintage home!

    (I have no idea why this seems to be posting photos as doubles) Arts & Crafts handmade game table with pegged tenon legs and checkerboard top. One end of the built-in in the dining room and 1920s Victrola 210. Other end of the dining room built in. Morris Chair, half drum table.

    Who do you use to host pictures on forums?

    This Photobucket crap really has me miffed. It'll take a lot of time to fix threads. I ask those who can to please replace your missing photos. And I hope Photobucket goes the way of MySpace.

    Show us your Thrift and/or yard sale finds

    Jacobean style sideboard, around 1910-1925, once sold by a local furniture store, found at a garage sale right next door for $60. One door is wonky and a drop pull handle has been replaced with something sorta kinda close, but we had a spot for it. These are before and after images. It holds...

    Golden Era Things You've Revived Or Repaired For Use

    And finished it. I think this makes about a dozen chairs I've done and one car.

    Who do you use to host pictures on forums?

    The simplest solution here is to just drag the image file into the box where you're composing your post. Done. You no longer need third party hosting software to post images- they get stored here on our servers, free.

    Problems of Housing (1944)

    That swell new fluorescent kitchen light is plenty ugly. And interesting to suggest painting window screen with Flit to keep out disease germs. I expect all that 4" attic insulation is asbestos? (to match the roof shingles)

    Golden Era Things You've Revived Or Repaired For Use

    This turned up in a shop in 2013 for $50. A WWI era Arts & Crafts Morris Chair, made by Royal Easy Chair. You push the button on the arm and lean back, and it reclines into several detent positions. There's also a folding footrest underneath, along with a wire cage for stashing magazines. It's...
