    I hate monkeys.

    [/SIZE] Which of course, refers to humans. I rest my case.

    Summer Suit - High Twist Wool (From Sartorialist)

    I haven't figured out why anyone, blog or newspaper, would allow unedited comments and "feedback" to appear. Much of what is contributed to feedback forums that are unedited/unmoderated is unconstructive and idiotic. I couldn't care less what 90% of the general public have to say about any given...

    Are Classy Restaurants Lowering Dress Code Standards in Your Area?

    I love the headline: But These Are My Good Sweats. lol

    J. Ellroy Goes to the Movies

    I like his work too. The cool thing about Black Dahlia and White jazz is that they are the beginning and end - repectively - of his LA Quratet, throughout which you see not just a multilayered view of Los Angeles evolve, but the writer himself. Black Dahlia is a little off here and there, but by...

    Vintage Sunglasses

    It is; I take it the package hasn't arrived. When it does, there may be something missing. Cheers, Salv.

    Date The Cav' 30s, 40s, 50s ?

    Nobody's got a guess? The most useful information - the tag, the pugaree, the sweat - are not visible enough to really help, so it's going to be tough. Also, it looks like it might be a homburg, a style that didn't change a whole lot with fashion. I think it is safe to say that it is probably...

    Pomade

    lol I've used that stuff and I did manage to glue my armpits shut when I mistook it for deodorant. My wife still laughs about that, and about the time I brushed my teeth with cat medicine.

    Stetson Nutria

    lol The Ed Gein/leatherface of the rodent population. Nutria is soft and durable and very expensive - so you got a good deal. It's a nice enough hat as it is - but I'd look into having it fedora-ized.

    I hate monkeys.

    You have just listed my reasons for hating people. edit: Okay, I don't see much feces-hurling, but still, in all, people = feh.

    The Adventurer's Gear Thread

    lol Seriously serious? I thought it would have more to do with having to pay someone to hammer them all in versus paying someone to glue on a molded sole. I liked those paddock boots way way back near the beginning of the thread too.

    Paris

    Paris lovers start lining up for Angel A. Advice to Mister Ed: Don't spend your whole time in Paris running around from queue to queue, it's a great place to just stop, sit and relax. Check out Shakespeare and Company - the book store, it's got a great view of Notre Dame - pure romance. Enjoy...

    My neck is five inches long!

    Possibly the strangest thread title I've seen at the FLounge. I think it's the exclamation mark; gives it a kind of EXTREE EXTREE READ ALL ABOUT IT quality. [huh]

    Classic Style Summer Issue '07

    I just got a copy of the Spring issue and haven't even finished reading it yet. I think I can get it done by June 18th.

    I hear he eats the cat in the unrated version.

    I'm waiting for the ALF movie.

    What Are You Reading

    I absolutely loved It's a Good Life If You Don't Weaken, but the Clyde Fans narrative just hasn't gelled for me. He still isn't finished with it and perhaps he never will. The Vernacular Drawings is a lot of fun and well packaged.

    Is that great old library still standing? What about the train station?

    Vintage Sunglasses

    You'd be surprised how often I use that logic to make a decision: At restaurants I wonder what Travis Bickle would order, and I often ask myself, What would Travis Bickle do? Cheers guys. PS: Salv, I may have forgotten a track list. If that means antything to you yet, let me know.
