    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Hi As an ex-Frigidaire Appliance Delivery boy, it's Avocado not green. White, Harvest Gold, Avocado, Poppy, and Copper. Poppy was o.k., Avocado was kind of funny looking in a white kitchen. Later

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    The tonic actually helps it out. The quinine and bitters balance the sweet OJ. Of course, I would drink it without the tonic, I don't usually have it around the house anyway. Tonic in an Old Fashioned??? Later

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Hi Matt W. E. B. Griffin's Marine Corps series calls this an Orange Blossom Special, but it's not in any bar guides I've found. Shot of Gin Couple of dashes of Angostura bitters Orange juice ice top off with Tonic. Hurts a lot because it tasted a lot like slightly sour orange crush. Don't...

    And then arresting the boys (usually) when anyone catches them doing "what they're told". Gotta love it.

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    Hi A boy from my hometown is a registered sex offender because his then 15-16 year old girl friend sent him (then 17) a topless picture of herself. He got picked up for DUI several years later and they went through his phone and found the picture. I think he did a little time for it also...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Hi Rodkins Peter's brothers sells those for $150 now. I'd consider it, but I have a Milan. On mine, the brim is flexible, but the crown is pretty firm. What's that one like with respect to stiffness? Thanks

    Bourbon

    Hi I don't suppose that they mentioned measurements or anything else helpful did they? Some of the cheap bourbon tastes pretty cheap. I wonder what they could do for Cutty? Personally that stuff is nasty, not bourbon, but nasty. Later

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    Hi in my opinion, dressing like a 1940's pinup TODAY IN AMERICA is not as bad (objectifying etc) as it was back then in more modest times. Dressing like a 1940's pinup TODAY IN SAUDI ARABIA during the Haij would be worse due to the "context" in which it is done. In a way, it's all relative, and...

    Aftershave : That nostalgic true masculine smell!

    Hi I've been using Pinaud Citrus Musk this spring also. It doesn't last that well either. I wonder what they used to use back in the 1980's that made the scent last longer. When I use the Aramis, I smell it ALL DAY. later

    Post New Hats Here!

    Hi Ray I THINK you may want to sell that hat to a Tennessee Volunteer. It's at least close to being their color. That's ORANGE. Shape is good, but that color is something else. I liked your gambler hat in the Western pictures MUCH better. Later

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    HI Manfred, PERSONALLY I think the extra brim looks good on you. It helps to balance your face a little better. The pork pie looks good too, just not quite as good. Just my $0.02

    Care Of A Milan

    Hi My Milan has a kind of floppy brim and a stiff crown. I'm worried it will be crunchy. I think I'll spray it with distilled water. Later

    Customer Service in the old days versus now.

    Hi Based on personal and anecdotal experience, there are ways to get a real person on the phone. A friend at work got frustrated talking on the number tree and just started cussing at the phone. Soon a voice on the line said, "There's no reason to be vulgar sir." and he said, "No there's not...

    Stretching a hat - advice please....

    Hi Really, 7 3/8's is a pretty common hat size. I have to stretch my hats a little to keep them big enough. Apparently the bunny fur shrinks a little. Later

    Triple Crown...we have a contender!

    Hi Back when I was in high school, my family toured Kentucky, my Mom's home state. We turned Churchill downs, Keeneland, and Calumet Farms. I think those horses had it better than I do, except for the whole 5 AM exercise run thing. I'm moving to OKC, which has Remington Park. Later
