    Nagasaki

    There is substantial information, at least there was in 1946, that Japan detonated a nuclear device in the Konan, Korea (North Korea now). It would have been folly to make up a story locating it in and area that would have probably been investigated. No one knew then that that area would...

    World Trade Center

    I digested this stuff like most of you as it happened. I ain't gonna see it. Can't imagine Pearl Harbor survivors being interested in watching a movie about it in 1946.......

    $5 Words

    My wife works for a local school district office and due to the bi-lingual-ness of the area much is translated for in home parent consumption. I assist her at times to derive the meaning of the ambiguous crapola verbiage these educators use. They ramble on and use phraseology that defies...

    How Long Have You Been eBaying?

    do you believe in EVP? spirits / ghost recordings?

    Geez don't anyone get their panties in a bunch. Tommy- I read your quote as more of a philosophical observation on humankind than a poke at anyone here. Frankly a discussion about freakin ghosts has less significance than whether Barry Bonds' dope-tainted baseball records should carry an...

    Can't Summarize in a Title

    I simply find time passage and history relative to individual perceptions which change also.

    Revisited Films

    Without getting off topic too much, I wonder what favorite films you all watch on a regular basis. I like Sam Peckinpaw's The Wild Bunch and watch it probably 4 times a year. The cult classic The Warriors is a fav that I look at on a similar schedule. W.C. Fields It's a Gift is my favorite...

    Nagasaki

    I extensively researched and wrote a long 4 part article involving the invasion scerarios of the day. There were tons of dialogues amongst the planners of the invasion that spelled out exactly what their concerns were and why they made certain estimates of morbidity. The casuality figures of...

    Home is where you hang your hat...

    Unfortunately, I have no hat rack and no logical plce for one in my house that wouldn't look out of place. Keep some of them in boxes and up in the closet where space is available.[huh]

    The Look

    I tend to align with your 1st description but that's just me. And I think that is the wonder of it all. Each person has a picture in the mind of what THEY each think the classic look is. Remember, we have all been conditioned by the cinema. In reality lots of guys wore assorted fedoras...

    "sniping" on eBay-tired of being the victim...

    Ideaguy- any supplemental service that allows you to outbid someone in the closing seconds is yet another dealy-o that costs money to maintain so you can spend even more money on Ebay! Make a bid of the maximum you want to spend and leave it at that. As someone mentioned frenzied bidding is...

    Just won

    Great hat and I'm sure you can afford it but sweet tap dancing Jesus 205 bucks!? Thing is that there'll be another one in a week or 2 that no one will even bid on that you could get for peanuts. Enjoy though:)

    The family wagon

    Friends have recently completey restored 57 4-door sedans. They both cost between $12-13,000 not including the purchase price of the vehicles. One was inherited so was "free." As for basic prices versus condition on any special interest car back to 1946 start here for an idea...
