    King Kong:reviews

    Why would anyone feel compelled to change the ending to the remake of any classic film?

    King Kong:reviews

    If we go back to the original we sure don't have any award-winning performances or any snappier script lines. There is nothing but the story that truly makes it unique. Film makers are damned if they do and damned if they don't change things in any remake. Changing classic movies ends in...

    Gun Control NOW

    Everyone in my family can handle firearms. Both daughters, their friends and I go to the indoor pistol range and have fun. A kid 11 like the story mentions is old enough to have been taught firearms safety. It's probable that the kid got an unloaded weapon and loaded it and that it wasn't...

    Observations in the lounge

    I'm back and ready for my cold beer. My treatment went perfectly and I should be cancer free. Blood test in 3 months will confirm but I feel sure. I'm blown away by you kind remarks for my health. Thanks! There's enough of you around here 40+ so do yourself a favor and please make sure...

    Observations in the lounge

    I gotta say this is a great site and forum! Every site I visit that deal with my interests are full of discord, rudeness, political agenda arguements and cynical comments from immature jerks. How refreshing this place is. You really don't know how good you got it not to have some wanker...

    My Next Jacket?

    Well I kinda don't care too much for 2nd hand shirts and the "who sweated in this?" factor either but jackets are OK. We all have our little peccadillos. My Howard Hughes quirky syndrome is perspiring. I hate it. It makes me feel crummy.

    King Kong countdown....

    I'm getting more excited about the new flick. With the possibilities of computer graphics today we don't have to wish the biplanes were the proper ones since there are none flying anymore and all the other things that can't exactly be reproduced. The original was the original and there is no...

    War time photos.

    This is not original but it is rarely seen. This is one of the 4th Fighter Group's top aces, Don Gentile. Since he is pictured with a young British lady and not his trusty plane, Shangri-La it isn't well known

    My Next Jacket?

    Hemingway- had no idea those jackets end up that price. Saw one too small for me starting at $10! Belly Tank- Here's a couple of pics of what I mean. This is 40s-50s This is 30s-40s. As you can see pretty much the same. These were the light jackets that tradesmen wore. Truck...

    One thing I like is traditional fruitcakes. I know everyone jokes about them but send them to me if you don't want them!:)

    My Next Jacket?

    I don't know if anyone around here goes for non-leather casual jackets but for us in Southern Cali light weight vintage and retro stuff works for the climate fine. The Howard Hughes casual dress jackets he's pictures in, in the 1940s aren't in big demand but make a nice look. Also the work...

    Pipes

    I worked in the tobacco industry for many years and once smoked a pipe. I would recommend a very easily found Captain Black in the white package. It has a very pleasant vanilla aroma that never offends anyone. It smokes mild to the taste also. If you get tobacconist blend there are many...

    losing the past

    The article on the storage disintegration of objects is perplexing. It's a matter of $$, time, and space. What do you keep? What do you restore? What do you do with it when you're done? In any memorabilia fan base each is sincere in their belief that "their" items' agenda be met. As a...

    Mallory- Nice to know we weren't the only ones that snuck around exploring hidden parts of the building! We liked to open the access trap doors in the basement and go explore the steam heating network passages.:cheers1:

    The Great Mac vs. Windows Debate

    I was in the printing industry for a long while and Macs are used exclusively for graphic design. Business apps and entertainment software is pretty much dominated by DOS/Windows. Don't expect to find the new King Kong game out for Mac, for example. I run Windows XP and it is the most...
