    Movie hats

    That was a good movie, indeed. The series of books is even better, as they usually are, with more fully developed characters. Those books are by Robert B. Parker, who interestingly enough also wrote the Jesse Stone and Spenser novels.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I got tangled up in an auction like that just recently. I paid a little too much for a 7-3/4 Resistol Timber Creek western, NIB, because I really liked the color and didn't have one like it. The shipping listed was only $5. I knew shipping would cost more than that, but the purchase price was...

    That's interesting about the Campdraft crown heights. I have four, and all mine came 5-1/2" or a little less open crown. I'd prefer a little more height, too. But I'm a larger hat size (62 or 7-3/4) like Brent. I wonder if they have to compromise on height in bigger sizes to keep the brim big...

    Your favorite movie quotes

    “He’s an okay guy, if you don’t trust people anyway. Which I don’t. “ A character billed only as The Old Guy in the recent movie Marlowe. Quote may not be exact but it’s as close as I can remember. ;)

    The Agents of F.L.A.S.K.

    Reestablishing the woolly mammoth is wondrous to think about; who wouldn't want to see a live one? But a mammoth without tusks is not a mammoth to me. And the discussion about reestablishing mammoths saving us from climate change, as the article asserts, is bovine scat and makes the whole...

    Interesting! I first heard of the Gallopin' Goose many years ago, in a CW McCall song:

    Yeah, but he's a rough-looking character! :D ;) Hope you are well, Bowen!

    Cowboy Boots

    I would repeat the advice you've already received. If they fit well while they're on, I'd stick with that size. There's few things worse than trying to walk around in sloppy-fitting pull-on boots. Boot jacks to get them off, at least for now, and a long shoe horn (the long style made for...

    Just when you thought you had seen it all . . . (Warning: Not for the fainthearted)

    I do have to admit the spear made me laugh. And no, I wouldn’t wear that jacket for that purpose either, but I guess he can afford to. I guess my reaction overall is more “chuckle” than “cringe”.:D

    Just when you thought you had seen it all . . . (Warning: Not for the fainthearted)

    Agreed about the use of the jacket - it is after all supposed to protect, if that's what the owner wants it for. I've used tincloth in briars with good success, but never leather (at least, yet... :)). And yes, boar with a spear takes some sand. Even though it's usually done with a dog pack...

    Just when you thought you had seen it all . . . (Warning: Not for the fainthearted)

    I guess I'm missing the point of concern here. Are you objecting to the killing of the boar, the wearing of the jacket while doing so, or the cheesy photograph? If the dead boar is the cause for concern, it's because you've never lived anywhere that feral swine have destroyed a large part of the...
