    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven. Putting those 45 minutes back into the film most definitely brought an improvement.

    The Cap Faction

    Nice looking cap, Alan. Pretty active colours! I know what you mean about college. Today, it costs more for a single course than my whole annual tuition 'back in the day'. Thank goodness my son is finished!

    Happy Chinese New Year 2012. Monday, January 23rd. DRAGON!

    Happy New Year. A Dragon here...as is my son. As my wife put it today: "I'm a bunny (rabbit) living with two dragons."

    The Cap Faction

    Nice looking cap, Two Types. Like the scarf as well. Good to see that Bates and Binks continue to associate with one another!

    Your favorite movie quotes

    We could have a whole thread for Coen brother movies... Ulysses McGill: "Damn, we're in a tight spot!" same: "You two are just dumber that a bag of hammers" or my favourite, still from Ulysses Everett McGill: "Say, any of you boys smithies? Or, if not smithies per se, were you otherwise...

    What Was the #1 Song on the Day You Were Born?

    Cry by Johnnie Ray and the Four Lads. Kind of appropriate...the Four Lads were four fellows from Toronto. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrV1ZUHOzI4

    British Royal Navy Tin Helmet

    Don't know if this will help, but: I'm sure that blue or grey helmets were used in naval service but army green was as well. The RCN centennial site at the Canadian War Museum (http://www.warmuseum.ca/cwm/exhibitions/navy/objects_photos_search-e.aspx?section=4-C&id=30&page=1) has photos of two...

    The very best image of yourself

    I suspect this is me at my peak. Everything went downhill after that!

    Deco vs Nouveau

    FFF is right, I believe. By the '30's Deco was all the rage. Nouveau would have been viewed as rather old-fashioned...it had pretty well fallen out of style by the early to mid-'20's. Both were decorative styles, not artistic schools.

    Bletchley Park

    Interesting article in today's Globe and Mail. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/restoring-the-wartime-birthplace-of-the-modern-computer/article2304589/ It would be good to see this facility restored. The fact that Bletchley Park and Colossus was such a well kept secret for so many...

    Bates Hats no longer British Made

    My favourite hat is a Bates (wore it today). The texture and comfortable fit put most of my other hats to shame. I understand they moved down the street...to number 71 or so.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Watched it a while ago and found it an hilarious spoof. Think I'll dig around and find the DVD again! And no, 'Machete don't text'.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    It'll be interesting to see what they do with the Swede character in the second season, particularly given the tar and feathers revenge from his extortion victims.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Hell on Wheels finale. Love the Swede: "I was married once, sir, but she run off with a gypsy. My heart was not ripped out, but she did steal my cuckoo clock."

    what CD do you have in the car?

    Paul Simon, Graceland; Sarah Harmer, Songs for Clem Jerry Lee Lewis, All Killer, No Filler (indispensable)

    Attack of the Giant Boater

    50 and 3/8th? Nuts, I was looking for a 50 1/2! Thanks, anyway.

    Bomb Girls

    No need to feel silly Miss Laurie...we all like different things for different reasons. If we all liked the same things, the world would be one boring place. If you like it, watch it and enjoy.

    How Did Your Hat Come In Handy Today?

    While shopping the other day I was frankly too lazy to go back to the entrance and get a basket so my Stetson 3X beaver did double duty as a shopping basket. Worked great. Hats...can't do without 'em.
