It's about time we define "fedora"
This could be the breakthrough we've been looking for ! -
It's about time we define "fedora"
Thanks. I found it, but it's Fanny Davenport as Fedora. That may be as close as we can get. Back to the chase : Given that almost all posts here in the Friendly Confines describe hats with some specificity, such as Homburgs, boaters, OR clones, and so forth, why try to narrow the term... -
It's about time we define "fedora"
I was looking, without success, for a picture of Sarah Bernhardt in her role as Fedora and wearing her famous lid. I can't find it, but that is the only true fedora, and everything else is derivative. There is general agreement among those present that the category is rather amorphous. What's... -

Italian Americans persecuted during WW II in the US
How do you say "book 'em" in Italian ? It was probably only a receiver, but there may only have been a need for one-way communication to coordinate the fifth columnists plotting to seize North Platte. ;) Wouldn't it have been more productive to deputize him and ask him to keep an ear... -

The Great Beer Thread
Somewhere, Papa Joe is Smiling ... Our "local" PBR brewery was at Perry, Georgia near Macon. It seems to me that the dark PBR was only available on tap. The Bock turned up at irregular intervals in the can (!) with a goat on the label. I wish I had saved a couple of the cans.- W4ASZ

The Great Beer Thread

Do You Feel Old, CNN Article
A Mellow Median There was a day earlier this year during which I was given the senior citizen (over 50) discount at one local store and carded for my beer purchase at another. No, I don't feel especially old at 56 simply because of the externalities.- W4ASZ
