    Vintage style interfere with buying modern clothes?

    I have always detested the company name or brand logos on clothes that I'M paying for. I refuse to even touch them, I'm not going to pay for their advertising. I'm referring to the graphics/logos that are very visible, not labels that are attached on the inside of the garment.

    Artie Shaw's Class in Swing

    If I had to pick just a couple of favorites, it would be Sugar Foot Stomp and Copenhagen.

    Artie Shaw's Class in Swing

    Thanks, Arties my favorite! Nice to see some video to the audio that I've been listening to. For some reason I pictured Helen as a blonde, but no matter: I Have Eyes

    What are you listening to?

    I thought this was pretty cool. I have an mp3 of the same song, minus the stratches. Coon-Sanders Nighthawks - Flamin' Mamie

    New vintage collars

    Nice looking collars, but where do you find shirts that are compatible with them?

    Talcum Powder For Men

    I don't use talc for hygiene reasons, but pure talc with no scents added is often used by scuba divers who use dry suits to lubricate the neck and wrist seals to make them easy to get on. It has to be pure because the stuff sold in stores is scented with chemicals that can damage latex seals.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    "Little Caesar" - Edward G. Robinson. Ok, aside from the gorgeous antique autos, suits, hats in this classic gangster movie, it was SO much fun imitating and mocking EGR's distinct voice and speaking manner - "aaaaahhh, dirty yellow copper, saaayyy?" Also a few times during the movie it...

    The Fighting 69th, James Cagney. Great movie.

    Manners/Etiquette

    That kind of thing needs to be reported to the driver. Driver's aren't cops, but there are steps we can take, starting with documenting it on up to summoning police. The driver can't see everything that goes on, in fact, very little, we're busy driving the bus. Here's another "nice" Seattle...

    Manners/Etiquette

    I see this all the time. I drive a city bus and I'm appalled at the number of times I've seen young kids not voluntarily letting elderly have their seat (but if I see that, they WILL give up their seat!), and men pushing their way onto the bus ahead of a woman that was in front of them. And...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Just finished "Captains of the Clouds", James Cagney, Alan Hale. Great movie, especially if you're into vintage aircraft, but they could use a few more "eh's?" since it was about the Royal Canadian Air Force.

    1940's CAVEMAN PIN-UP TEES

    I added you to my favorite seller list. I will check back to see if you have a size large.

    I don't understand why they trash Borsalinos.

    I'm a newbie, but even I know that if you're selling something, you don't sabotage your sale by saying it's a crappy product, especially if you're a dealer of this product. So I don't understand this eBay description. (This seller does this on their other ads for Borsalinos too.) My real...

    Salivating over barn full of vintage autos!

    Apparently it's been going around since January, only now got to my neck of the woods. The story is false, but the cars are real.

    Salivating over barn full of vintage autos!

    Couldn't find this posted anywhere here using key words, so I'm hoping this isn't a repeat of a post, my apologies if it is. I checked it out on Snopes, and like a lot of things some of my well-meaning friends send me, the story isn't accurate, but the barn full of vintage autos is real...

    How do you date a hat?

    Where and what station is that on? Googling it produces no results.

    Fancy dress only attitude gets me down.

    "Gangster" is bad enough, but I really hate it when they say something like "Hey gangsta, wazzup?!" and give me that stupid two fingers gesture, (like a sideways V sign) whatever that's supposed to mean. The fashion industry doesn't help matters either. I picked up the March 08 GQ issue...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Finished watching "Drums Along the Mohawk" tonight. Henry Fonda, Claudette Colbert, Ward Bond. I can't help but recall those GAF commercials HF did in the 70s, and how everybody made fun of the way he said "GAF" (shzee yay-yeff). What's even funnier is I don't remember what "GAF" was...

    Guess who?

    Well darn, that was too easy. Missing are Harpo (Arthur) and Gummo. I was reading up on them after watching their farewell film, The Big Store, in which I discovered a Golden Era crooner, Tony Martin, who amazingly is still alive at the ripe age of 96. Some interesting trivia about Harpo...

    Guess who?

    I wouldn't have recognized them! (Hint: There's two more).
