    Panama Hat Question

    I believe Joel gave a suggestion above. I'm would think Art Fawcett may also be able to do that.

    Open Road dating guidelines?

    No one dates my Open Road. Now I'd suggest datng at least a 20 year old. Don't move too fast or put it on the head too quickly. Any open road wearer should already be a gentleman, I shouldn't have to say it.

    Hatters in East TN?

    I was told there is a good shop in Chattanooga. I cannot confirm that. One of the guys on this board who does hat repairs I think lives near Memphis. You may just have to ship it off. Very sad that there isn't a top quality shop in ever decent sized city anymore. There are still guys here...

    How popular was/is your name?

    If our last child had been a girl, we would have named her Adelaide. Pretty name. But, alas, we had a boy and named him Blaise.

    Your First Major League Baseball Game

    I cannot remember exactly which was my first game. I know it was either the Reds or Indians, in '75. I saw both every year for many years, but can't recall which was first. Caught my first ball at Cleveland stadium. Foul ball off Minnesota Twin Rod Carew. Caught two more in that stadium...

    a burning ring of fire

    That house had one more guest for dinner on several occasions, me.:) Very sad to see it go. It was such a peaceful place, with a great history. :( But the studio survives, so part of Johnny's vibe in a place survives. A wonderful man and a wonderful family. Johnny's brother Tommy, who...

    A Painless Classical Education

    I would disagree with this. Socratic dialogue is often used without these tenets as part of its make up. It does always challenge when used properly, but does not have to debase. I am a product of a great books education. My experience was not like described above and many others are not as...

    A Painless Classical Education

    I agree with Orgetorix, it simply doesn't come easy. The real problem is a lack of discussion. Classical educations highly lean on the art of rhetoric and Socratic dialogue as a way to develop logic and reason skills. These are the eventual hopeful outcomes from a classical education. To use...

    Any Cigar Afficionados Out There?

    Pretty much everything Tommy said. Our cigar tastes are pretty much the same, both in vitolas and size and shape preferences. 'Cept I agree with Jon and I think Tommy does too, no more Pepin products. They will not get my money.

    Any Cigar Afficionados Out There?

    The Sopranos line is not limited edition and can still be found at numerous online sources. Whether it will be offered after the show has ended isn't yet clear.

    Straw hat ribbons

    I think he was saying, when he saw a picture of the ribbon he thought the style it would go best with would be an optimo. I am certain Jon is aware of what optimo means. He has quite the collection of panamas. And the crease is actually not to allow the hat to be rolled up. It was a natural...
