I did a 2-fer about the end of the world....
"Don't Look Up!" - A scientist and his grad student find a comet that's.... you guessed it, about to blow planet earth up real good. They go to the appropriate governmental agencies only to find them concerned more about mid-terms, Supreme Court...
"Smoke em if you got em!" Style's about the last thing on my mind. Puddin' says "I have one" but it's not a "deliberate" thing. In other words I don't go looking for clothing to match a particular "look" I have in mind. I like what I like and I wear it, long as it fits comfortably or keeps...
Survived the Nor'easter or "Non-Easter" if you aske me. Not much snow but plenty of cold and wind. Old pic, lost a bit of weight since this was taken, but same Gino's Leather "Marlboro Man" and Ushanka. It was a might frosty.

"The Bounty Hunter" - I was just browsing through the TCM queue with about 1.5 hours to kill and decided to watch this "Oater" helmed by Randolph Scott. Simple story, Scott a grizzled B.H. is tasked by the Pinkertons to catch the remnants of a band of outlaws who robbed a govt. payroll a year...
"The Gilded Age" - Think "Downton Abbey" with bad New York accents. I lasted 15 minutes before heading upstairs. In that it's produced by the same guy that did DA I guess you can understand why it has a similar feel to it. Despite much of it being filmed in my town (Troy, NY) I couldn't take...
Saw this some years ago... hit me like a freight train headed west. Such emotion, raw anguish and pain, not your typical English fare. The scene where his wife snearingly, mockingly compares his end to that of Donat in "Goodbye Mr. Chips". I wanted to do murder, I wouldn't kick a dog when he's...
"We don't need fiction to tell us how messed up the present world is... do we?"
ROTFLMBBAO! Man have you been under a rock lately? Art has replaced News since Murrow and Cronkite died. Still as bad as it is today, it's better than its ever has been. No Mongol hoards over the next hill...
I must say that this thread is why I love this place. I've learned a lot in this one and been thoroughly entertained. I've several Aero's, an AL, Langlitz, a Vanson or two... most of the majors save LW (not man enough I suppose). Some fit perfectly (my used HWM in steerhide) and some do not...
In negative numbers last 2 days with the wind chill. I NEEDED that hat! Furry enough I don't even have to lower my flaps! One guy tried to buy it off me. I demurred of course.

Got Ruby, hand me down doggo, on Halloween. Sub zero temps led to my Canada Goose Parka, Silver Fox full Ushanka, flannel lined jeans and wooly scarf. 6 Year old Aussie Shepard who's a bit nuts but sweet. First ever doggo she gives me a reason to go out and about in Jackets and gear 2 to 3...
"Station 11" - This is a strange one and a prescient one. It's based on a book written some time ago wherein the 99% of human race is wiped out by a virulent flu that kills in a matter of hours, not days, not weeks... not months. The story follows a young girl working as a child actor in a...
"12 O'clock High" - I've watched this one many times over the years. Taught WWII action movie made in 48. Peck didn't want to do it as he thought American audiences would be tired of war movies, he was wrong. As a rivethead this film is a feast. Real B-17's were used as we follow an American...
Although this is my first dog, I've a friend Betty who has had several. I visited her regularly and did work around the farm. Her oldest dog, Luke, a German Shepard and the only other male from miles around, took a shine to me and followed everywhere when I was around. We clicked I guess but...
You owe me a cuppa coffee. That's the funniest thing I've seen all day! Thanks! I've friends with cats and they always love me, but my lungs don't always love them. Cats are "mercurial" to say the least. Never know what they're gonna do, when they're gonna do it or why?

Thanks for the love folks. Yea Boyo, I'm out walking 3 times a day now. Today I wore my "Marlboro Man" shearling and my Montana Peak hat. We musta looked like a lost pair of shepherds looking for some sheep to herd! Ruby's always had a "home" but the woman who had her couldn't keep up with her...
Growing up in the Housing Projects of NY City (one of Robert Moses' finest) my siblings and I always fantasized about having a dog or cat. Those were strictly verboten by the powers that be so ixnay on the petsay. We did eventually get a "hand me down" parakeet from one of the ladies my mom...
Finally got my "Marlboro Man" fixed. 30 degrees and a little windy so I took her out for a spin. Didn't wear the Ushanka though wore my Montana Peak instead.

Lost a bit of weight since this photo was taken.
