    Hi http://www.oldfrontier.com/ I have one, they're blended wool, but they drape pretty well. Later

    German tourist ad from 1939

    Hi If memory serves, from Heinze Hohne's book "The Order of the Death's Head", the leaders of the Einsatzgruppen weren't really told what exactly it was they were leading until they showed up in Russia. More than half of them got grossed out and left pretty quick. I think the pitch was...

    Help Me Pick a Borsalino!

    Hi I don't know what I'd do if I lived close enough to NYC to go to a hat shop with Borsalino hats. I own two 100% beaver hats from TonyB and they've been in a mild rain with no after effects. I haven't gotten my 100% bunny fur hats wet because I wear the two hats Tony built me in bad...

    My WW11 paradox resolved with Dad's Service Records

    Hi The ONLY story that my Dad told that was in any way bad was about a pilot who wouldn't pay attention to the Weather briefing (Dad was a forecaster). There was a storm that was supposed to hit Finschhafen New Guinea about the time he was supposed to be there. The pilot whistled and looked...

    Hair Coloring " Gentleman"

    Hi My Dad went bald in about 1944, I was born much later than that. My Mom's father was a cue ball. Dad's father died when he was little so we have NO idea there. My hair is just proud to be here, gray brown, etc, who cares. Hair is hair. later

    Okies of the Fedora Lounge Group

    Hi I'm busy this summer, but I'd like to plan on meeting up at the OK State Fair. Its not vintage, but it's relatively inexpensive and has parking. I'll be there anyway. I'm open to other suggestions on actual FL era activities, but PERSONALLY I haven't found any yet. I GUESS that the 45th...

    What Song Would You Like Played At Your Funeral.

    Hi I'm not sure I'd use the term appropriate for this one, but it is at least topical. My next door neighbor had this on a comedy album I think, might have been a 45. They're coming to take me away!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnzHtm1jhL4 In my home town, they still do...

    Play Ball!

    Hi I agree. I also agree with you about the Designated hitter crapola. I seem to remember that years ago, more than 60% of the teams made the playoffs in Hockey, I thought that made the regular season silly. Baseball should go back to basics. Later

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    HI Me too. In my case because they allow the sissy Designated Hitter. The ONLY guy on the team who can throw at the opposing team is protected and no one can throw the ball at him. SISSIES!!! Later :D

    This is the jacket I was made for!

    Hi I didn't look yet, but Brigham Young University is in Utah right? The seller mentions Idaho?? Why did (do) they have an insane asylum? Just curious. I don't remember University of Illinois having one, but like the rest of you, we DID need one occasionally. Later

    Backyard chickens

    HI I seem to remember a travel or food network show that mentioned a ham product. The pigs lived in a Pecan or Hazelnut orchard for their last months of life. The meat tasted like pecans or hazelnuts, and was $100 a pound or something outrageous like that. Later

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Hi I like hard cider, good stuff. I had the old Hamms years ago, we called it Slamms in college cause if you didn't slamm it down you'd taste it. The new Schlitz is pretty good. Later

    Travel in the future

    Hi The problem with high speed rail (and most government transportation projects in the past few decades) isn't the transportation itself, it's the way the Government(s) do things. The right people have to be given the work, for the right unions, in the right cities, and the land must be...

    Willis & Geiger - The Full Story?

    Hi I remember when Banana Republic had actual stuff you might wear on a safari. I never owned any Willis and Geiger stuff, but then I'm a little young to have gotten the good stuff. later

    whats your favorite ethnic cuisines and whats the least liked ethnic cuisines?

    Hi You might want to try another place. I've had the whole spectrum of experiences with Indian food (at two places). The first was the Baskin Robbins of Starch. 4 kinds of Potatoes, 6 kinds of Rice, some type of noodle, and taco meat with peas. ONE (1) single meat dish. The other place...
