    advice needed - how to wear those short 50's jackets

    Jim, That's a nice looking jacket. I hope your wife's opinion isn't holding you back. If you wish to continue wearing 1950s attire, high waists may be part of the package. If you do it regularly, she will get used to it; others will get used to it; and most importantly, you will get used to...

    Longtime Loungers...do you think the Lounge has changed a great deal?

As someone who has posted very little, and killed more threads than I would like, I don't believe that there is any sort of prejudice against me for it. I have noticed that the more interesting something is that I have to...

    Ever Been On The Radio?

    This sounds like the coolest job in the world. It's on the list of "things I'd love to do if I had more time and fewer commitments."

    Vintage-style baseball caps?

    RARELY would I ever put on a ballcap...but when I do it has to be a Cooperstown Ballcap. I second the recommendation. Right now I happen to be wearing my 1930s Milwaukee Bears (negro league) cap while lounging around.

    pant, pant, pant...
