    STEP BY STEP NAPTHA BATH

    Several have mentioned that the naptha didn't really get all the sweat stains out. Anyone know what will? (I don't.)

    do you have many friends?

    I think many people freely interchange the words "friends" and "acquaintances". You may need to define "friends" here before really answering. To me a friendship implies a relationship that involves a certain, possibly lifelong, commitment and degree of acceptance and trust that even a lot...

    Food you keep going back to, because it's just what you need right now

    Corned beef hash with a little molasses dribbled on top, fried eggs, grits, biscuits, and good strong black coffee. What a body needs to get through the day.

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Por Larranaga. Double Corona. Mild and satisfying but nothing really outstanding.

    My Father's G-1

    If you haven't already found out about this site you might find it interesting. http://www.vpnavy.com/vp47.html I crewed on Orions in the late sixties, but didn't manage to keep my G-1 when I got out. Bought another one later.

    Selecting the right hat cleaner

    I've used the light Scout cleaner on a couple of sweat stained silver belly hats with good effect and no problems. It takes a bit of brushing to get the residue off the hat, but that's all I've found.

    What's In Your Bathroom Library?

    The sears catalog. It doesn't have as many pages in it as it once did though.

    Given the nature of the allegations, no good can come out of dredging them up again.

    Your Favorite Cooking Shows.

    My wife and I like a few shows on TFC, but just for entertainment. It's been some years since you could actually learn much about actual cooking there. I think the slide started when Emeril switched from actual techniques and recipes to being a celebrity and started bamming. Before that he...

    Draw the shades!

    I don't know if the rings could be bought that way or not, but I remember my Mom crocheting the rings on ours when I was a kid. Not only did the shades turn yellow and brown, but they finally got brittle and then ripped.

    And I cannot tell you how many times I've watched wheels reinvented by the inexperienced. Mistakes and all.

    What do you think of modern "Street/Punk" Fedoras?

    Hey! :whistling My hair did its job and retired. I'm old enough that what young people wear just doesn't matter to me. As far as the hats in question go, I couldn't wear one myself without looking ridiculous so I guess they don't matter to me either. And before anyone points out the...

    Wearing a tie in a company that does NOT embrace ties?

    I meant to add that the better you are than those around you at your job the more (in general) you can vary from corporate culture (in my experience).
