    Golden era food.

    Any of you ladies or gents ever had pastrami from Katz's on Houston and Ludlow? Deadly stuff, but MAN is it good. They've been serving it on that corner since the 1890's.

    Most emphatically yes. Excellent point!

    The A2 Hall of Fame

    "Yeah, you're right,kid. Cooper does make a good jacket for knocking about in. The problem I have with the Real McCoy is that it's made in Christchurch, New Zealand. I got nothing against New Zealand. Great people, wonderful country. But,they never had a contract with the USAF back in the WWII...

    THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES (1946)

    Anybody seen THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES ? This is a special movie. Required viewing for anyone seeking deeper insight into the psyche of our grandparents' generation. I cannot stress enough the importance of this film. Maybe I'm just a sentimental mush, but I don't think so... Looking foward...

    The A2 Hall of Fame

    Cooper makes a decent jacket for knocking about in. They had a small contract during WWII making A-2s for the USAAF, but the modern USAF and civilian A-2s they've produced are quite different from the wartime A-2s of the 30's and 40's in pattern and spec quality. For an excellent reproduction...

    Golden era food.

    "Root. PS. A dog at the ball park is very good, but not better then a well prepared steak." I was just quoting a popular advertisement from the 1940's featuring Humphrey Bogart.

    Usher

    Here in New York only the old Ziegfeld Theater remains to provide the old-timey bowtied-and-bejacketed usher service, but boy! is it a humdinger of a movie house! Mahogany and velvet all over the place. Anyone visiting the city owes it to themself to enjoy a flick there.

    A dog at the ballpark is better than a steak at the Ritz.

    Golden era food.

    After a very scientific study of the elder members of my esteemed family, it appears that macaroni and cheese was the overwhelmingly favored meal of the "duration."

    Favorite/worst job?

    Worst job: paperboy. Ages eleven to thirteen. Delivering the Trenton Times. Waking up at 4:30 every morning, be it Christmas or Groundhog Day. Truding through the snow while squirrels laughed. Robbed at gunpoint for eight dollars, always carried my Crossman air pistol jammed in my waistband...

    Film Noir Volume 2

    NARROW MARGIN is definitely the winner of the bunch. I'm surprised that DILLINGER was included in that set, whoever put it together must have a very loose defintion of Noir.

    The A2 Hall of Fame

    I've only owned one McCoy's, a McCoy's Sportswear model from the late 90's. I wasn't crazy about the thinnish hide and quickly sold it, but the details (United Carr snaps etc.) were outstanding. I've seen many other McCoy's with different hides and I've been very impressed, their Monarch model...

    Aero Real Deal. Russet hide with rust knits. Just looks right.
