    White Tie & Tails Website

    Here's where I got my tail coat and accessories for Friday dinner on the Queen Mary. Not perfect, but it did look pretty darn good. http://www.finetuxedos.com/index.aspx Click on "Tuxedo Tails." I got the "Milan."

    How did you find the lounge?

    On the Queen Mary I found myself wishing I had cards with the Fedora Lounge URL on them, as a lot of people were asking "What's with the hats." I think we may pick up a few new members. We really took that ship over! :)

    More Retro-Looking Cars

    LuckyKat, is that the '37 that was on eBay a few months back? Is it as beautiful in person as it looks in the photos?

    Mr./Ms./Mrs.

    I think the only people who should be allowed to call one "Hon" are waitresses in diners where the food is good and the hot coffee is always flowing.

    Did you know???

    I'd never heard of Rinso until we moved to Hawaii in 1970. It was the biggest brand there at the time.

    NAUSEATED

    I'm not in favor of vandalism, but I have an urge to take some white-out to the bookstore and erase the word "If" from the covers of that book.

    HATS

    Great, tease us now that Art doesn't do renovations any more. lol Seriously, that Flagship really came back from the dead! Great work on both hats.

    Pull out the Tuxedos

    We'll see if it makes me feel good or not. At any rate, I'll be a shoo-in for the Guy Kibbee Lookalike contest.

    Happy 100th Louise Brooks

    I don't have any gin, but I'll raise a glass of Dewar's White Label. :)

    Pipes

    Thanks for the tips, Howard. I've been meaning to quit, or at least cut down on the cigarettes and go back to a pipe. That nasty juice was one of the reasons I never stuck to pipes.

    Queen Mary 2006 - Hat Show & Tell

    What hats will you be bringing to the Queen Mary this Friday? I decided to rent a car for the weekend, as I wasn't looking forward to driving my little pickup all around the L.A. Basin. I should have enough room for half a dozen hats or so. I haven't decided which ones to bring, but I'm...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    I can't imagine wearing a felt hat in the steaming jungles of Southeast Asia, but there it is. I wish it fit, but I'm afraid to stretch it. It's definitely my oldest hat, and I love just having it as an historical artifact even if I can't wear it.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    I'm up to five Borsalinos, including my "Spaghetti Western" that looks just like an Open Road, my two Homburgs (black and grey) that were first sold in Trieste, (the southern end of Churchill's "Iron Curtain,") as well as my shackle-curled light grey fedora that came from French Indochina, and...

    I love a brown Stetson.

    That is a great hat. I love my brown fedoras, too. I'm generally to be found in "earth tones," my favorite Indy Magnoli suit is a brown pinstripe, and I've accumulated several brown Stetsons, a Dobbs with a Guild Edge, a medium-brimmed Borsa and a tan Stephen L. Stetson that go great with it.

    Learn to fly.

    I soloed back in '81, and passed my FAA written, but the money ran out before I could get my ticket. I doubt I'd fit into that 152 any more, it was a squeeze back then. If I did it again, I'd probably have to rent a 172. Back then, I got some brochures for the Bellanca Decathlon, and I...

    Pipes

    Really? My biggest problem with pipes is that horrid juice that collects in the stem, and a bent seems to do a better job of keeping it away from my mouth.
