Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....
My son's mutt, Maverick likes to chew on your hand when you're fighting. You don't get hurt so much as grossed out by all of the goo. He intensely dislikes getting his mouth held shut. I have no clue why? [huh] Maverick (in spite of his great name) isn't neither a lover nor a fighter, he's...- 1961MJS

Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....
O.K., I think Zeus is a good name for an Australian Cattle Dog, but it's a better name for a Toy Poodle, Chihuahua, or other little dog. I'd have a Chihuahua named Rambo if I could stand to around the damn things, just for the comedy value. An attack trained Rottweiler should be called Fluffy...- 1961MJS

Myths of the Golden Era -- Exploded!
Hi Well, bubble gum sons are for 10 year olds. I looked up the song and found that it was Billboard Song of the Year (single?). I didn't notice the musicians names. I KNOW it's a cartoon series tune, but come on, Song of the year and the musicians aren't given much notice. Later- 1961MJS

The general decline in standards today
Sorry, missed the important one. There are theories, but none that are concrete. Back in the 1970's or 1980's, (I was chasing women then) our country's Mental Health system was systematically destroyed by "mainstreaming" most of the inmates. Most people who would have been in an asylum are...- 1961MJS

The general decline in standards today
You have to remember that most if not all of our country was either kicked out or left the rest of the "civilized world". Our break from Britain was because of our lack of rights with respect to taxation. We took and kept others too. Again, we're not all that civilized. We actually like and...- 1961MJS

The general decline in standards today
Hi Head shot, even if it hits the mask will blind him to some respect. He was close enough to touch by most of the customers. I attended Batman in Wichita over the weekend, and the consensus was "I hope everyone brought their gun to the theater." No VISIBLE police presence. I also...- 1961MJS

To 3D or not to 3D - that is the question...
Hi I watched the new Spiderman (2012) in 3D and like the movie o.k. They DO need some form of clip-on 3D glasses for those who DO wear glasses all of the time. As someone else stated on another thread, the depth is better with the 3D. The action sequences were better. I don't that 3D will...- 1961MJS

What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?
Hi Has anybody smoked the Marsh Wheeling Cigars? I've been trying to get some to try. The local Wichita Cigar store is aging a few boxes for someone, but aren't selling singles. I found out that there are three versions, a natural wrapper, a Manduro wrapper, and an EMS wrapper. They are wrapped...- 1961MJS

Oklahoma City Suggestions
Hi Here are the Oklahoma City hat shops so far: These guys are closed for Remodeling as of July 12, 2012. I was there after work hours so I can’t tell anything about their intent to return to business. They're around the corner from Shorty's and Cattleman's Steakhouse. Stemwinder...- 1961MJS

Bourbon
Hi The whole bottled in Bond portion of this post has made me want to go buy a bottled in bond Rittenhouse Rye to take home with me. Got it, with Maraschino Cherries and Bitters, to make an Old Fashioned with. Later- 1961MJS

Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?
Hi Flicka In our defense, there are places we live that driving to work out will make our projected life-span longer than attempting to cross certain intersections to work out. At least with the car, we have metal around us when we get hit. Most of America isn't built to walk in. The place...- 1961MJS

Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?
HI What do you / did you usually tell them? I'd have probably mentioned none of your bleeping business. 3AM walks are a little more suspicious, but them my Mom's neighbor and a couple of Friends go running every morning at 5 AM in Small town Illinois. Would "none of your business" have...- 1961MJS

how many hats are too many
Hi I don't collect hats, I wear them. I DO have one of my great uncle's hats, a blue wool one from the 1940's or so. He died in 1957 here in Oklahoma City where I live now. I think the interstate is built over his old parking lot. I try to only have one fedora and one cowboy hat in each... -
The Stratoliner Appreciation Club {MODERN}
Hi Is there a custom hatter in Detroit that David could use? I ordered what was effectively a Whippet from TonyB, and it fits, in the color I wanted etc. A Stratoliner would be even easier I would think. Better a $300.00 hat that you love than a $150.00 hat that you sort of like. Just my...
