    I include as a sign of quality the working conditions of those who make the items. I won't be compelled to explain or apologize for it.

    It's not what one says but how ones says it. You can be the most intelligent guy in the room but if you come off like an argumentative bore, no one is going to listen.

    Nope, I have no agenda and no reason to sidestep. I'm also not stupid enough to be baited into senseless arguments.

    Ha, yes. That is great advice for any young lady!

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    Nothing wrong with that as long as everyone sticks to their roles. Men need to ask themselves how they want to be treated when they are not the warrior, athlete, surgeon, or engineer? Most men are nothing like this but ride the coat-tails of their species. What should a man tell his...

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    John, you must realize everything you stated above were produced in conditions where women were overtly, and in some cases legally discouraged from engaging in. To say a woman cannot be a stonemason or a warrior because "it's not in her" is misleading. Our white, male American society never...

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    You are more than welcome to add your comments! It is odd to consider men have had it so good for so long yet any perceived disadvantage in the battle of the sexes is taken very badly. One might view such attitudes as spoiled-sports.

    Great point. Putting on a "'Merican Heritage" mask doesn't excuse the company for sidestepping labor laws and producing goods in sweatshops.

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    Just to clarify I don't have a problem with swear words. There is a time and place for everything, even a well place curse word. St. Louis did a better job of stating my point about inappropriate language in public settings. Our shared public space is not the setting to brag about your...

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    To expand on this point that I strongly agree with, I really miss when women didn't feel the need to be equally crass to try and prove how hip and empowered they are. Nowadays if you ask someone to watch their language in the presence of women and children, the woman will pipe up with, "oh...

    Hideki Okisaka: Master '30s tailor !

    I'm sorry there hasn't been any activity on the site since Hideki's passing. It's a great site with a lot of enthusiasm for the era.

    I also stated (post# 24) quality can be found non-locally. Let's not twist words. I believe what you do with your money amount to a moral action. You can believe otherwise if it makes you feel better. As for the rest of your post, I have to say you come off as angry, antagonistic, and...

    No not everything but some things, quality things. Things which may cost more but last longer, perform better, and hopefully contribute local healthy economies in every country. Not all goods are created equal. The issue isn't as black and white as you appear to view it.

    Vintage NYC

    If one finds the Oyster Bar menu is pricey take a look at their lunch counter specials. You can bask in the beauty of place and enjoy a crab cake or po boy sandwich.

    We'll keep an eye on it. Healthy discussion is welcome. Contention, baiting, etc. is not. You guys know the drill. ;) Agreed. Foreign factories are asked by businesses to produce fast and cheap, and are supported by consumer action. It's easy to blame politicians and businesses but we...

    I had one as a kid and haven't thought of it in years! That day glo orange color handle is unmistakable.

    Table Talk pies are great! Our supermarkets in Queens, NY sells them and I still put a few in the shopping cart. My son loves the pumpkin pie.
