I had a rye called 1792 when I was in Ramapo County, NY a month ago. I really liked it. I'm in Greece right now with a poor internet connection so I cannot look at all the pages of this thread to see if others have mentioned it. Does anyone like that one? It's nice.

I went to Dances of Vice in NYC a few nights ago with the Fedora Lounge's own Senator Jack, DHermann1, Club Wit's End, and Mr Bern as well as a few other people. Apparently some high school band was playing at the venue before Dances of Vice began and the high school kids were still there...

I just took a trip from SF to NY. I wore a vintage suit on tne plane because it is thick, hard to wrinkle, and travels well...
I have seen the "arms race" mentality many times. This seems to be the most interesting feature of the book. "But mine is from 1926." what was once interesting and cool ceases to be so. New heights are attained, new depths of extravagance.
