Computer problem. Need help!!
"At my last corporate gig we had around 250 employees, and were 90% Mac. There were 5 pc tech support people and one Mac support guy. Almost every Mac person knew how to solve whatever small problem arose. The few PC people always needed help, they were clueless. And your simple 9 step...- Twitch

Second-thoughts on vintage wearing in public...
Yes a straw will be great, as I mentioned too. There are so many ways to dress in your mindset and be comfortable. Vintage or retro Hawaiian shirts are a natural for amusement parks. More people actually wore them than suits in the 50-60s. But to each his own. Have a hell of a good time!- Twitch

How has ebay changed collecting locally, in person?
One thing auctions in general have begun to screw up is vintage autos. Some schmuck will put his #3 condition car on Ebay cause he saw the Barrett-Jackson auction where a 69 Dodge Road Runner, one of 60 made with a factory hemi that was professionally restored at high cost, brought $80,000...- Twitch

Second-thoughts on vintage wearing in public...
It isn't about being uncomfortable about how you look especially in Southern California or Florida as you can attend any venue imaginable and see people dressed in any imaginable way. At Six Flags in the Dallas area you might see some straw cowboy hats but not one suit. It's about being...- Twitch

Strange movie's hat.
Riccardo- I don't know this movie but my feeling on the brim turned up is a negative one. To me it implies the wearer is a buffoon or rather dopey person. At the very best it portrays to me a simple and innocent chap that just doesn't know how he looks. There are some hats styles and... -

Pass the Bucket - Eminem is Paladin.
It's not even the Richard Boone thing but setting it in modern day simply shows that the people producing the thing are only interested in a young "hip hop" audience to = $$. They're afraid of westerns anymore anyway.[huh]- Twitch

Maybe you were around back then?
There have been many well-documented cases of people knowing all about a deceased person which they couldn't have known so there is something at work there. I don't feel as though I personally am reincarnated. I simply like combat aircraft of the WW 2 era and autos from about 1930-1970. I...- Twitch

Car guys help!!
One thing for sure the Messerschmitt and BMW Isetta pictured above as examples of the type you're thinking of are quite expensive now relative to what they are and their original market niche. 3-wheeled Morgans are also pricey as are literally any of the vejicles people have pictured. Those...- Twitch

Not Sissy Actors but REAL MEN
Know what "golden age" actors had more than today's? Stage presence. They had the equivilance to "the force," if you will, much more so than guys of today. Only a few today have a strong persona and are comfortable with who they are and who they are portraying. I don't have to name drop...- Twitch

Second-thoughts on vintage wearing in public...
"Amusement parks" are no place to be wearing a suit of any type!! You will NOT be comfortable at all. As for headwear try a straw of your choice as it is now summer and being outside in the sun is HOT and you will be miserable. Six Flags in Texas, Disneyland in So. Cal., Disneyworld in humid...- Twitch

Flying Tigers Jackets from the 1942 film
If we want to get super anal we can complain that they didn't use real Zeros as was the case in most movies of the era. The AT-6 Texan trainer was used a lot with Japanese hinomarus on the wings. In fact since these were plentiful at the time of Tora, Tora, Tora! they converted many into...- Twitch
