    favorite cars of the golden era

    I recently found a picture of my dad leaning up against his 1947 Oldsmobile 98 Custom Cruiser 2-door, and... man. I love that shape. When I get the scanner working, I'll put that picture up. For now:

    The general decline in standards today

    Ditto. I felt brain cells dying every minute. I couldn't stand "Jersey Shore" past the second commercial break. And these people are "celebrities" and >gack< role models now?

    P-51 crash at Reno Air Races

    Except in this case, it looks like it was (1) mechanical failure -- a part came off the tail assembly of the plane, and (2) the very skilled pilot was able to keep the plane from flying straight into the grandstands -- he hit some boxed seats, but kept the plane from going farther out.

    I love the Phantom. Absolutely LOVE the series. The Finnish comic strip Fingerpori also seems to love the Phantom.

    On resuming pipe smoking...

    Show us your vintage home!

    Hot dog, that's a sweet house. I love the style. I can't wait to see what you do to finish it out in your inimitable style.

    I have to second that. Grisbi is a GREAT flick.

    On resuming pipe smoking...

    I can't recommend Navy Flake highly enough. My preferred brand is Orlick's Golden Sliced (navy flake), but MacBaren's Navy FLake and Peter Stokeby's Navy Flake taste exactly the same to me. They're all wonderful. My first pipe, back in 79 or so, was Captain Black Gold. I still have a fond spot...
