    The Great Beer Thread

    Hi Pilsner Urquell isn't my favorite lager, and I'm an ale kind of guy anyway, but having said that I bet you got into a bad or old batch. Joseph Heilemann's premium beer had a vinegar aftertaste making it horrible, but it was supposed to be great when less than a week old. If you're a...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    HI Tom We used to call that stuff Slam's because if you didn't slam it down, you'd taste it. Some beer doesn't travel well, and I bet Hamm's is one of them. Later

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Hi I don't own a work of Art (yet), but I wanted to comment on the Granite color. I specifically didn't order a hat in that color because of it's reputation for changing colors in different light. I also own a Silverbelly (bunny fur, factory second I think) that I turned into a Boss of the...

    LTB Boy Scout Campaign hat

    Hi Rob 6-8 week lead time from whom? Stratton? There are several police supply places that sell those hats. Later

    The lost art of dressing for the occasion

    Darn Lizzie, unfortunately you're hit the nail on the head. "Screw you, I'll wear my Jammies to your wedding and since you invited me that's o.k." Nothing on TV, Free food, and Free Booze. Now how do we reverse the trend? Later

    If I looked like these, I'd be on sale too.

    Hi I used to own a Stanley Blacker plaid sportcoat that matched EVERY COLOR in the big Crayola box. $125 marked down to $20.00. I wore it to work one day. One guy thanked me for dressing nice, another fell out of his chair and probably wet himself. That guy in the red white and blue...

    The general decline in standards today

    Hi James, I hope you're right, but it HAS been a while since ole Adolph bit the dust. The German problem probably won't be with the right this time around, they were decimated during the war, while the lefties worked in concentration camps in the "better" jobs i.e. there were still a bunch of...

    The general decline in standards today

    Hi Lizzie From my experience, that's not true of newspapers. My experience is the Springfield Illinois State Journal Register. It used to be a Morning (Democrat I think) newspaper and an afternoon (Republican) newspaper. One bought out the other and now the "news" is liberal and the opinion...

    The lost art of dressing for the occasion

    Hi Religion aside, I firmly believe that you should always dress for your occasion whatever it may be. Church is somewhere you should show respect (or maybe not go), so you should be clean and look your best. On the other hand if you show up at all, I'm betting God likes that better than your...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Hi Rue Homebrew or store-bought? I don't have the time to brew anymore, but it sounds interesting, especially the part about it being like Mead. later

    The general decline in standards today

    Hi James See Figure 1 in this article. I didn't even read the whole article, but I wanted to post Figure 1 showing how there is no left and right wings, but rather a circle with totalitarianism at the bottom of the circle with democracy at the top. Both Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union were...

    The lost art of dressing for the occasion

    Hi I find it interesting that you CAN buy jeans and a t-shirt at Abercrombie & Fitch for about what it would cost for inexpensive dress pants and a nice shirt. I would also like to second William Stratford above. "...church is supposed to be sober and so we should dress appropriately for it."...

    Six rules for wearing fedoras

    Hi Edward Plus 1, I own a full beaver and a 50% one, they seem to wear better than the Rabbit and they wear a lot better than the wool hats in the rain. I'd say that when you work out what fedora looks and feels best on you with respect to crown height, brim width, and taper THEN buy a...

    BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes

    Hi The hat and bow are both copies of the hat that Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders wore at Kettle Hill. The colors are wrong for a rough rider hat, but it looks great. The ribbon is a light copper. I love it. Later

    BUCKAROO BONANZA! - The Hats that Major Mike Moore Makes

    Hi I got around to taking a few pictures of my Roughrider hat that Mike Moore built last year. Quarter View: Front View: Side View: I stretched it out a little since it was getting a little tight. This is my Summer go-to dress hat. Later

    The general decline in standards today

    Hi While in theory, driving with absolutely no alcohol is great, it's not really measurable or reasonable. Most cough syrup contains alcohol, as do some other medications. Some of us, do on occasion use cough syrup so that we can actually make it through the work day, and we pretty much have...
