    Federation cowboy hat?

    Folks are ignorant. Here in Texas, where Cowboy Hats rule, people see me in a fedora and say "nice cowboy hat', too. One old guy once asked me where I got my "little brimmed cowboy hat",

    When you're not dressed vintage...

    I'm, the guy with the rope... Trying real hard to look like I'm working while really not doing anything but walking around the worksite with a rope on my shoulder. I'm going for coffee... Only with a big Cowboy moustache.

    Canvas Sports Shoes

    I reckon... I wore All Star High Tops for as long as I can remember. Mom would buy us boys a new pair every August for gym every school year. We wore uniforms to school, but after school on whent the Chucks. We called them Fishheads. I still wear them, and was really saddened when they...

    Canvas Sports Shoes

    Froggy... So what's the big diff between the current Chucks and those? I can see from the pics a different lining, sole, and toe bumper...but for all intents and purposes the remain the same as the ones I got at Foot Locker last year.

    When you're not dressed vintage...

    I don't own anything vintage... However my wardrobe is vintage inspired. My workwear of late has been either Chinos or Dungarees (Wrangler Rugged Wear Relaxed Fit Jeans), chambray or denim shirt, khaki military web belt with brass military slide buckle or leather 1 1/4 inch garrison belt...

    Another pricey hat on eBay

    If they keep getting higher I'll never own one. Nice new avatar, Shamus.

    Caps from hatsintheattic

    I think they are just an ebay store. Buy one and give us a review. I bet they don't have a leather sweatband like B! Wear Caps do.

    Humphrey Bogart's Suit

    He was a little man. Like an elf or a gremlin. Some may say he was gnomish. But cool.

    Senator Jack Urges War on Lethargy: Crackpot Politician Explains "Why it matters"

    Ooooooh, in spite of....I see now. I agree with you on the politeness thing...if nothing else. As they say, we can agree to disagree, even if you insist on being wrong. Uh...my good man. ;)

    How many Texans we got here?

    I want to come really bad... Since, you know, I started this thing. And I'm really not as bad in person as I seem to be on the internet. My oldest daughter's grandfather lives in Seguin and is not doing too well and has a heart condition as well as other ailments. My two girls and my wife...

    Senator Jack Urges War on Lethargy: Crackpot Politician Explains "Why it matters"

    I still don't get it... What the hell does 'notwithstanding' mean? Is there a regular word you can use instead? I never said I developed to a higher form of life. I was created a higher form of life. Where are all the developments of the chimp? Their highways, their computers. Colleges...

    Senator Jack Urges War on Lethargy: Crackpot Politician Explains "Why it matters"

    No... I really don't want to discuss Evolution vs Creationism. Because that is really what it comes down to. I will say this though, you can think that there no lower or higher forms of life if you want. I prefer to think that the Human is the highest form of life, second ony to the Living...

    Senator Jack Urges War on Lethargy: Crackpot Politician Explains "Why it matters"

    Humans are a higher form of life than a protoplasm. Is that not from whence we came? They may not use the term, but that's exactly what they believe. When they are hit in the face with their own science, like the rules of thermodynamics, they crumble. More importantly, however, were would...

    Store Panama Hats.

    All my hats are stored on a coat hall tree, sans coats, so I guess it's a hat tree. My felts and straws are stored the same way. All boxes have since gone to the landfill. I understand from a previous post, poster unknown, that there are certain properties possesed by cardboard that are...

    Senator Jack Urges War on Lethargy: Crackpot Politician Explains "Why it matters"

    Joe, Some do believe in a sort of evolutionary adaptation, but true evolutionists believe that species are evolving into a higher form of life. That mud, water and light somehow spang into a living being. And that being continued to develop, generation after generation, into a higher form...

    Anyone hate the Federation??

    Am I understanding this correctly? Different models of Akubra Hats have different grades of felt that account for the differing stiffness.
