    Aftershave : That nostalgic true masculine smell!

    Hi John, I realize I'm playing Dr. Froonkensteen (Young Frankenstein) and reviving the dead, but how long does the citrusy smell of Florida Water last? Does anyone have any experience with the Royall Orange? Thanks

    budget B-10 help

    Hi I have several items from At The Front (ATF) and they're all wearing well. I don't own the B-10 though. I own a set of the early WW2 Herringbone Twill utilities, two pair of Khaki pants, and a 1943 combat jacket. Oh, when you read about the sizing by ATF owner, he's been right so far...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Hi IN THEORY, May 15th, 2012 is Straw Hat Day here in America (I looked it up...). It's April 2, 2012 and my Stetson Temple is getting hot. Just how long do I have to spend in Hat Prison for starting in on the Sun Bodies, Panamas, and my new Milan...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Hi I own several Sun Body Guatemalan palm hats, and you need to soak them every month so that they don't get brittle. I own a three or four year old Panama, and I just purchased a Milan. Do I need to spritz them with distilled water every so often so that they don't get brittle either? Are...

    The Great Beer Thread

    Hi I agree with old Ben, but on PBR, we used to drink that in High School in Southern Illinois. I don't recall it being either expensive or ritzy. In college it was about $8 a case, Bud was $10 a case, and Joseph Heilemann's Premium Beer was $4.39 a case (and worth every penny... :eeek:

    Vintage Lifestyle VS Re-Enacting VS Cosplay

    Hi Renault With all due respect to your experience, I would bet you haven't spent a lot of time in Kid's Sports. The Colonel's Wife demanded that her son play Catcher in spite of his being tall and skinny with LONG legs like the world's most perfect first baseman. The funniest one I heard was...

    Just HAD to share this one

    Wow Art, that's just so wrong of so many levels, but it's still HILARIOUS :D. I really hope you find the pictures, It think there's a website for things like Duct Tape tuxedo's and prom gowns etc. Later

    Vintage Lifestyle VS Re-Enacting VS Cosplay

    Hi I don't remember hearing about Roy Chapman Andrews before, but you and I wear the same stuff. My leather jacket is black, worn with black or charcoal gray fedora though. I wear about 10 different Cabela's two pocket canvas shirts with Cabela's Khaki pants (olive too). I'm considering Zoot...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Hi I'd suggest buying and using stampede strings on a 3 inch or wider brimmed straw hat. A VERY inexpensive Panama Bob or Sun Body should work fine. For the roller-coasters, you can hang the hat around your neck and have it lay on your chest. Personally, I need to go to Worlds of Fun this...

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    Hi, got some Jamison's. it's not that great, but it's smooth and in general good. I can't stand Johnny Walker Red or Black, which means I won't even try the rest of the rainbow. Famous Grouse is good, but again not great. When I want cherry flavored stuff, I got Cherry's in the Refrigerator...

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    Hi Well James, I"m not quite in your boat. I like Rye (love Sazerac), I love most all Bourbon, and I love expensive Scotch. I detest cheap whiskeys that aren't Bourbon, cheap bourbon is still pretty good to mix with (Jim Beam, etc). Cheap Scotch (like Cutty) is just awful in my opinion. I...

    Cost of owning a hat

    Hi I don't remember the thread, but I do remember reading in the "Hatless Jack" Book that the hat check girls did have something to do with the down turn in hat wearing. If memory serves, many hat check girls asked for a quarter to check your hat back in the late 1930's and early 1940's...

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    Yep James, I really like the Overholt. It's $12.00 a bottle (750ml I think) and it tastes as good as most of the $20 to $30 a bottle stuff. It's just the best tasting Rye Whiskey for the money. Sazerac is great by itself, I'll have to have some tonight. It reminded me of the Jewish Rye Bread...

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    Hi I broke down late last year and bought some of the Bulleit Rye. It's good, but not as good as the Sazerac (in my opinion). I will drink it, but will probably stick to Overholdt for mixing, Rittenhouse 100 proof for mixing for BAD DAYS, and Sazerac for drinking on the rocks. Later Y'all

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

    Hi Dogs tend to be protective, to really screw with them, have two members of the family fight a little. The poor dog doesn't know who to help. My wife and daughter do this to my son's dog all of the time. Our toy poodle took on one of my son's friends in High School, but he was one of the...

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

    Ahh, think of the comedy value. Our toy poodle died over Xmas, and she was a great dog. I never would have bought one though. Our old neighbors had a lap Rottweiler, I leaned down to pet it, and it eventually shoved me on my butt and then laid tummy up in my lap to be petted, a 1 and a half...
