    This generation of kids...

    I can't say I'm a fan of Mr. Ford either, but that is because of his outright antisemitism. Besides that he did have a remarkable life, and had some admirable qualities, he's entrepreneurial skills being one of them. I think the fact that Mr. Ford was a blue collar mechanic helped him become a...

    This generation of kids...

    I think you're being a bit idealistic here Lizzie. Business has solely always been about making a profit from the beginning, it serves no other purpose. Whether Henry Ford, Andrew Carnegie, or Sir James Lancaster, ever wanted to admit it so openly or not a companies solely exist is to make a...

    I don't post pics very often old man. I suppose I could take a picture and edit it though when I have some time to.

    Is there something you really want to wear but are chicken?

    The only piece of clothing that I have but I'm to chicken to wear in public is an inverness coat that I have. It's a modern piece that I had made, it's designed to look like a piece of everyday Victorian wear, it's not a copy of the black evening version. Still I just can't see myself wearing...

    Jennifer Garner as Miss Marple???

    But then the tap dancing state champion shows up and saves the day, even though the dance troop had teased him earlier in the movie. Proving once and for all that all nerdy kids have a heart of gold.

    Jennifer Garner as Miss Marple???

    IDK why but I've always wondered if Doris Roberts would play Miss Marple. If nothing else she would be better then Jennifer Garner.

    What are you so dressed up for?

    Most people who ask me why I'm "dressed up" assume I'm either going to an interview, or I'm a manger of someplace. I probably get "Do you work here?" more when I'm in a store then anything else though lol. "I'm a grown man." Is a good line though. If you really wanted be sarcastic you could...

    If you could solve just one mystery....

    Personally I believe the man named Jacob Levy was the madman of Whitechapel. A mentally disturbed, syphilis infected, butcher. Sounds about right if I had to make a guess. Is it possible that the Police choose to hide the identity of the killer, because they feared violent reprisals against the...

    Ghosts of the Golden Era

    My Aunt is always afraid people from our family are going to haunt her. She lives in the old family homestead, and three generation's have died in that house that we know of, my Grandmother (who passed onto her eternal reward this February) being the latest. She told me that she had a dream...

    This generation of kids...

    The way old ideas, become old ideas is because they last. New ideas that prove to have little value simply die off. They prove their worth with every succeeding generation, and become a stable of a culture's moral ideal. They become a part of the "permanent things" in life. They don't die out...

    30's Gentlemen's Etiquette

    I am interested in what the general "vintage advice" would be though.

    30's Gentlemen's Etiquette

    It's not that popular around here from what I've seen anyways. I know women who will show interest in a guy, but they expect them to make the first move. To see if they "man up" as it were ;). I personally wouldn't feel comfortable with a guy friend buying me dinner. I don't know why exactly...

    30's Gentlemen's Etiquette

    That's interesting. It just doesn't seem to happen with my guy friends. Just today my cousin asked if I wanted to join him on his lunch break (where he got to complain about working on Sunday :p) at a local diner, but it was almost understood that we would split the bill. It's always been that...

    L. A. Noire (video game)

    I thought you started in like 1946 and time goes on into the 50s. You basically follow the main character's rise to the top as he makes he way threw the ranks for the years. I could be wrong though, it's been awhile since I've read about it. I'd be happy if the game was solely in 47.

    30's Gentlemen's Etiquette

    In my own life the only time I've gone "dutch" is when I'm with one of my guy friends. The only people who have ever bought me a meal when I'm at a restaurant is my Father, Mother, and Grandparents, and that is because they aren't/weren't afraid to make a scene. lol Anytime I take a woman out...

    30's Gentlemen's Etiquette

    IMO if she is more then a friend, the guy should pay. I personally don't care if she is more "well off" then I am, or whatever excuse some guys throw up. If your taking her out to dinner it's your treat. If you can't afford to take her to dinner do something else, or make a meal at home for her...
