    All You Need to Know About Hat Etiquette

    Aging beautifully and gracefully, then vs now: Who did it better?

    Well, I should have said "Most modern celebs", as I was a fan of hers when she showed up on Firefly... long before her current role... But, overall, I think the majority of ladies of times lost held a better sense of style and beauty throughout their years.

    Peter Jackson to produce "The Hobbit"!

    I suppose I should also note that I'm looking forward to this release with the same anticipation as for the new Star Trek movie. My favorite movies include the most of the original Star Trek movies, JJ Abrams Star Trek, and Peter Jackson's LOTR. I also love classic Golden Era movies just as...

    Peter Jackson to produce "The Hobbit"!

    I'm a fan of both, and so are many of my friends. But then, I have a tendency to like a lot more than most, considering I've got one foot in the past and the other in the future...

    Aging beautifully and gracefully, then vs now: Who did it better?

    Exactly. My first wife and I were a couple years apart, but her mentality was that of a 21-year-old when she was in her mid-30's. Once her drunken partying endangered my son, that was it... Happily remarried now, but her immaturity made me more wary of behavioral tendencies in just about any...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Are you looking to date the entire model or a specific hat? If it's the latter, one route you could go is to browse the Stetson dating threads; there are two. One is dedicated to dating a hat by liner, and the other by sizing tag. If the original liner and size tag are still in the hat you're...

    Aging beautifully and gracefully, then vs now: Who did it better?

    I got allergies around age 19, and the severity comes and goes each year. It started when I got my first cat, and now I have seasonal allergies, and even an allergy to some food product that the doctors haven't yet nailed down (scratch tests didn't reveal anything specific). I've learned to...

    Addictions...

    My wife often comments on my original plan to get one fedora. Now I have nearly 10, although only 3 of them see regular wear. I will also be ordering a custom hat as soon as I have a few details nailed down, and I see another in the near future. I'm not sure I'll get into the double digits...

    The BEST Detective/Crime films of the Film Noir era?

    I saw one recently called "Fast Company" from 1938. It had a very "Thin Man" feel to it. There was also the book-dealing aspect that drew me in, as I was a dealer myself many years back.
