    Cigarette and Cigar Holders

    I use a Denicotea filtered holder, the amount of gunk the filter picks up is scary. Several online vendors carry them. It also keeps the smell off my fingers and the smoke out of my eyes. I also have a nice vintage ivory holder I received as a gift, which I'll make use of next time I'm in...

    Churchill war cabinet notes found

    Thanks! I read somewhere that British schoolchildren aren't even taught about Winston Churchill any more. I hope that's not true.

    Facebook anybody?

    Do Facebook's servers seem slower than usual these past few days?

    Hat seasons in Southern California

    I wear felts pretty much year round, I have some lighter weight felts that work well in Southern California's generally dry heat. This summer has been a lot muggier than normal, though. Muggy weather brings out the Panama, or my boater on occasion.

    Heard of a kid named Walker. Luke Sky Walker. Not kidding.

    Some bad news (now getting better!)

    Please do take care of yourself, my friend. I don't want my Art Fawcett creation to become more valuable that way.

    LA Quake - 7/29 11:42 5.8 magnitude

    Very gentle one here in Tarzana, the least violent 5+ earthquake I've ever felt. Now what's up with the avatars? Mind you, I don't mind seeing Neecerie's face under every post, but it does seem a bit out of the ordinary.

    Driving golden era cars in the modern era

    Hey StraightEight, let those of us in the Southern California know the next time you take your Buick to a car show, I'd sure like to see it and I'll bet I'm not the only one.

    favorite cars of the golden era

    How about that Astra-Dome dash cluster? The first time I saw one of those, it was at night and it was glowing with its electroluminescent light. Looked like a domed city from a science fiction movie. One of the coolest things I've ever seen.

    What makes you feel vintage?

    Walking down the sidewalk in one of the old parts of town, in my suit and fedora, along with a few similarly dressed Loungers. Riding in Forgotten Man's '46 Plymouth with our fedoras on the way to Bob's Big Boy. :)

    Thanks! I'll probably hold off until a bit later in the year, but I am interested.

    Bow Ties

    Dang, none of those vendors carry a white piquet bow tie. The one I have is just a smidge too short, and I can never get a good knot in it, besides the fact that it's too wide. I'll check those sources out for regular bow ties, though.

    Anyone up for a little Celebrity Gravehunting?

    Yep, been to Holy Cross and it's very beautiful. Sharon Tate and "Fibber McGee and Molly" are right next to each other.

    I'm Trying to get a grip on it...

    Have you ever forgotten which hat you have on and try to figure it out by feel? "Hmmm, bound edge, diamond crown, must be my Royal Deluxe."

    Anyone up for a little Celebrity Gravehunting?

    Dang, Forest Lawn Glendale is almost literally across the street from where I work at Glendale Studios, and I've never been there. I've heard that most of the mausoleums were off limits to the general public, but it looks like you got in. Great pictures!
