    The general decline in standards today

    Yeah, pretty much. It's been fun though. [edited - don't pay any attention to the man behind the curtain]

    Childhood, Today's Kids...and The Goonies

    Perhaps: "it came as a surprise to me that any kid today would hold the [typical] '80s [childhood] in high esteem"? And just to add something to my last post - it doesn't seem any stranger than a child of the 80's holding a "typical" 50's childhood in high esteem based on television shows...

    Looking for a cheap suit?

    Perhaps originally it would have been, but at this point I'd have to disagree. Point being - HodgePodge is quite right in asserting that a Goodwill suit could (and probably would) be far superior to anything like this. I once found a brown pinstripe flannel at Goodwill, paid $6, had the...

    Childhood, Today's Kids...and The Goonies

    The 70's and 80's seemed to have a particular feel to their movies. Take The 'Burbs, for instance. Striking out the crazy murderous foreigners and just centering on the "day-to-day" life of the characters, you'd think the 80's was also a fantastic time to live in a suburb, or break into...

    Is it OK to have a silver fob on a gold watch chain?

    I might as well throw my fob in this circle. Silver - silver, Gold - gold. I also match the metals on the rest of my outfit, e.g. gold belt buckle and cufflinks call for gold watch, etc. (I'm not a huge fan of two-tone wristwatches, although I'm guilty of wearing one from time to time)

    The general decline in standards today

    That's the best thing that could happen to us at this point. Unfortunately, one might argue the pendulum has farther to go before swinging back (at least in our case).

    The general decline in standards today

    Exactly. The videos to which I was referring aren't simply gross-out videos, unfortunately. They're plain and simply snuff filmed by degenerates that take some kind of psychopathic pride in murdering innocent human beings. There are others like them out there, which I'm sure no one cares to...

    The general decline in standards today

    I hadn't brought this up yet, and I don't think anyone has, but are any of you familiar with such "shock" videos circulating the internet with titles like "Chechcle*" or "3guys1hamm*". (I've purposely removed some letters to avoid links to the FL for this garbage) Please, please, please do...

    after LABOR DAY would you still wear bright summer colors & whites?

    Ah, but then there are those accused of being eccentric... (where many of us who enjoy bow ties fall ;))

    after LABOR DAY would you still wear bright summer colors & whites?

    I think to say it's a marketing ploy is a bit cynical and probably inaccurate. I submit the following article from Time magazine for all to browse: Why We Can't Wear White After Labor Day Says Valerie Steele, director of the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology, "It [was]...

    This is still going? And to present my question, I'd like to submit the following post for your consideration. "This is still going?" Thank you for your time.

    after LABOR DAY would you still wear bright summer colors & whites?

    The common etiquette is to hang up "summer" clothes after Labor Day, including, but not limited to, seersucker, brightly colored rayon button downs, panama hats, white shoes, etc. Rathdown has a good point: don't just be one of the guys - be a gentleman. For the same reason we don't exactly...

    The Moustache

    Facial hair is tricky for everyone. I think it all depends on how much you consider "right". It takes me about two months to feel like I have enough to start twisting, and six months to be confident in the full look. That's just a start. You may want to grow the whiskers longer and shave...
