Hi
I own Rio Bravo, the cavalry trilogy, McClintock, Big Jake, and the Searchers. I was thinking McClintock, or the Cowboys. The Searchers is a little harsh in some ways. Great movie, one of JW's best. May do Quigley Down Under at some point too.
It's working both ways though, he made us...
Hi
As part of our "Cultural Exchange" here at work, we watched Dr. Strangelove last night. Last week we watched Animal House, and the week before we watched both Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein. The guy I set next to was born in Pakistan and lived there until he was at least 10, he's...
Hi
I should know this, because I used to own several "Totally Gross Joke" books by Blanche Knott. Found the series, thank you Amazon.
In the washing machine?

Hey
I always carry pocket knives while camping, and I attach them to a lanyard. The Scoutmaster's 4th kid was standing close to the fire peeling the bark off a twig really. His hand slipped and the $9 Swiss Army knife went into the fire, whoops.

Hi
On a good note, I like the way that Stetsonian looks. Unfortunately, it pretty much matches what I just received from Art a couple of weeks back. It's good to see that they're working with their customers to get hats we want.

Well Worf, that's what I was after, a non-traditional look. I don't hang with the "Super Scouts" in spite of having the Council President as our Membership Chairman and the Field Director and his kid camping with us. The Field Director was a major Pyromaniac too. Made campouts fun to watch...
Hi
Well, at a biker's funeral, riding a bike to spread the ashes, I think that wearing colors counts as appropriate funeral attire. Several Scout leader funerals are attended by 50 plus old fat guys (and some ladies) wearing full scout uniform. I haven't been to a Civil War Reenactor funeral...
Hi
Sorry for you loss. Here in Oklahoma, people actually dress pretty well for things like auctions. I haven't been to a funeral here though. In Wichita, people show up at funerals in whatever they happen to have on when it's time to go. In down state Illinois, everyone was in at least a...
Hi
My father (born 1919, died 2011) NEVER owned a pair of jeans. He said he used to wear denim overalls in grade school though. I remember starting school in 1966, no jeans, girls had to wear dresses (with pants underneath in cold weather). By 1972 (sixth grade), the girls were wearing hip...
Hi Worf
The Whiskey will be a great color for a campaign hat. I have one in undyed Natural that looks great. Pecan would also be a great Campaign hat color.

Hi
Ahhh, civil servants. Years ago our fair government re-assessed every home in the county. The 1950's ranch style home we lived in had a porch that extended to the garage, and a sidewalk from the driveway to the front door. Our ESTEEMED assessor didn't walk down the side walk, or hop up...
Hi
Must be different eyes, I think that the gray matches him better and I like the burgundy a lot better personally. I used to own a Maroon car, and I still have a lot of Maroon shirts. Maybe it's due to the proximity of the blue / gray shirt??

Hi
I did that and it came out well. I'm not done with the pictures yet and I need to work on the brim a little. More later, busy at work. I wanted a replacement for a Stetson Temple in Brown, that wasn't just a copy. It's shaped like an Indy hat, but in slightly different colors.

Hi
Dad's Mom worked as an telephone operator. Mom's Mom worked for my Granddaddy in the Judge's office (Granddaddy was a county judge). Granny was also secretary of the church cemetery and made sure everyone got planted in the right place. She may have done that for as much as 30-50 years...
Hi
Personally, I'm thinking Bourbon, but then I don't much like Vodka. Vodka doesn't have a taste exactly, but it always givens me the impression that I'm drinking lighter fluid...
Have you considered making any hard cider? I drink it, but haven't made any.

Hi
I'm into history. I've read several books about the 1930's outlaw era, prohibition, and the mobs etc including at least two on Bonnie and Clyde. Don't ask which ones, I don't have that available, but one was written in the last 5 years or so.
Bonnie and Clyde lead VERY interesting...
