    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Hi You're probably past this, but remember, when picking out a tux, if James Bond wouldn't wear it neither should you. Later

    Zipped or Unzipped

    Hi This is NOT the question I considered immediately after reading the title. :D On the other hand, I'm a BADDDDDD person. I do button my shirts before hanging them in a garment bag, they stay slightly straighter. Later

    How Old Are The Members of The Fedora Lounge?

    Hi I'll try and get a copy of my Mom (81) with ole Harry. She and Dad went by his place in Independence Missouri back in the 1950's. I thought that the top age bracket of 45 was kind of low. I felt a lot snappier at 45 I did. Later

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    Hi James While looking up something completely different, I noted that the most interesting man alive's name is Jonathan Goldsmith or Jonathan Lippe. He's currently 74 and has been in Westerns and various TV series since the 1960's. He was in the Shootist, John Wayne shot him. He has lived...

    Hi I've noticed that when you get something shipped USPS, it goes to the post office and that's the shown delivery date. It should show up a couple of days later. later

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Supposedly, if you drank it within the shadow of the plant it was good, but it didn't travel well. Champaign was about 500 miles away... $4.39 a case when Bud was $10.00 a case. Hamm's was pretty bad too. later

    BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes

    Hi One of the other safety engineers put in a 7 x 13 x 6'8" underground wine cellar in his back yard. Holds him, the wife, and the dogs along with their canned goods, and wine in the back yard. $7,000 roughly. Makes a nice patio too. Later

    BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes

    Hi Thanks Mike, That helps a few people I know. One guy, a row over lost his whole house, I'll post a picture when I get another one. I have one, but there's one with the flag on it that's gone national. The guy next to him was fine in the first two tornadoes, 19 and 20 May, but the one on...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Being a FAMILY type message board, I won't mention what Old Style was referred to when I was in College. It was better than Joseph Heilleman's Premium beer though. It was bitter and had a vinegar flavor. Bleehhhhhh. Later

    Parting Men's Hair: Where Should I Part Mine?

    Who makes the best, strongest duck cotton work jackets?

    Hi I bought a Carhartt Men's Duck Chore Coat/Blanket-Lined last year and I'm already re-sewing the button holes. Even the top button, which I've never used, is unraveling. Pointer brand has jacked their prices up quite a bit. Later

    Open Crown Stetsons: A Call (Plea) to Retailers!!

    Hi I had a decent, but not great experience with my Hatco Stetson Temple. I paid less than $100 for it a few years ago in Saint Joseph Missouri's outlet store. I brushed it when I brought it home, and got the brown dust off it, no big deal there. It didn't seem to change the appearance much...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Hi I had a few glasses of a cheap Italian dinner wine with spaghetti and meatballs. I thought that stuff was supposed to be served at room temperature, which was probably a little warm. It was better from the refrigerator. Of course when it comes to wine, I have an incredibly CHEAP pallet...

    High end Cuenca or low end Montecristi?

    Hi I used to live in Decatur AL years ago. The humidity and use can really wear down a straw hat. In addition, when you set on a straw hat, you probably total it out. When you set on a fur felt hat, not so much. I would suggest not blowing more than $100 on your first straw hat. The...

    How many years have you been at the same job?

    Hi Gregg According to the 1968 (roughly) World Book Encyclopedia, we were flying cars (that you didn't need to steer) on Magnetic Levitation roads in 1980 while wearing thin ties and smoking cigarettes. Later

    Boater assistance

    Hi Levine's Hat shop in Saint Louis had boaters a couple of years ago. They were rock hard, is this what they're supposed to be like? I didn't like the way they felt at ALL. They were pretty expensive (in my opinion) and weren't as comfortable as the Styrofoam versions that Shakey's Pizza...

    How many years have you been at the same job?

    Hi As of next week, I'll have been at this aerospace company for 30 years. Another 20 and I can retire.... I can't retire anyway, I gotta have something to do, might as well get paid for it. Later
