songs that make you shiver/cry
There are only 4 songs that evoke this response in me. 2 are 'in general', the other 2 are for my wife and I. For the wifey and me: At Last - Etta James Unchained Melody - Righteous Brothers In General: Dream On - Aerosmith All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix (I know it's a...- airforceindy

what CD do you have in the car?
Hmmm... Can't say mine is in the same genre, and certainly not of the Disney variety. Currently Avenged Sevenfold, self-titled. A bruiser of a metal album, and highly creative. Fantastic musicianship, something rarely seen in mainstream metal these days. Tempered on occasion with some Frank...- airforceindy

My Johnny Depp Hat!
Another plug for Art... Although I do not (yet) own one of his creations, I also highly recommend Art. Just from the pictures posted, his work is amazing and broad-ranging. The last time I talked on the phone with him it was for the better part of an hour! The man has a wealth of knowledge to...- airforceindy

My Johnny Depp Hat!
Don't worry, you're not the only big-dome owner around here! lol Is it JUST the brim that's messed up? You may be able to spritz with water, run an iron over it (with a thin dish towel in between of course) once or twice to create some steam, then let off. It should maintain or regain that...- airforceindy

My Johnny Depp Hat!
I'm sorry, Lonny, I don't want to totally burst your bubble here. Opinions are like ^$$#oles, and all that... Welcome to the Fedora Lounge!:o :D Check out your local antique store(s) and look for a brim flange. I kicked one over in South Dakota last year and got it for $10. A lot of old...- airforceindy

My Johnny Depp Hat!
If it IS wool, I'd say you spent about $210 too much. From that picture the felt itself doesn't look too bad. The ribbon appears to be of decent quality, but it's poorly sewn, as is the brim binding on the back side by the seam. I paid $250 for my Adventurebilt and had to wait for 18 months; if...- airforceindy

DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects
As a current military member, I can only imagine the feeling so many soldiers, Marines, and Airmen got when they arrived back home only to be spat upon, while we enjoy accolades and thanks from random persons on the street. Heroes aren't always those who bleed for the Flag; those who have served...- airforceindy

Hello! And some advice for an Akubra, please!
Welcome, Kreissaege! The Akubras are well loved, particularly the Federation(s) and the Campdraft. There are threads dedicated to Akubras in general, and also various models. The Campdrafts closely resemble a vinatge Stetson Open Road, and are a cheaper alternative to the sometimes pricey...- airforceindy

The Double Teardrop
Nice, but definitely "3rd-boob"... As stated in the very first reply, it's a testament to your skill with the teardrop bash, Jimmy. I do have to agree with you and pretty much everyone else, though, it looks like too much of a good thing, particularly on a hat as unassuming as an Indy (even if...- airforceindy
