First-time Tuxedo Buyer
Yeah, that's another thing. I won't name names, but there are some places that will send you bumbling out the door in some wool/poly sack that looks terribe. And they'll talk you into wearing a purple necktie and Loony Tunes Cummerbund. -
Dress like you want to be President
Not a bad suit here, seems fairly standard in the business world, but at least it's not black with a bright red tie. Is this a brown suit, or is it the lighting? Cause if it's brown... Pretty standard here too; looks like Navy with a bright red tie. Again, pretty standard. At... -
Halloween Costumes
I think I'll be a rich person who dreads various social occasions rather than dreading due dates on bills. I'll drink too much and forget about the lowly people, rather than drinking too much and having the upper echelon stepping over me. I'll likely pretend I drive a nice car rather than this...- Undertow

mikepara Gosh that is a sad story. I hate to hear that. I don't pretend this doesn't happen at all, but I guess when I hear the story like this, it really puts an egg in your throat. :(- Undertow

Which religious group?
A consensus was reached during the First Council of Nicaea to resolve a situation between early followers. The members agreed on much of the dogma and canonical texts during this council and effectively defined Christianity as a whole. This was a time when Christians decided to eliminate much...- Undertow

ebay worries
Of course you can. In fact, you can set a reserve price that, if not meant, does not obligate you to sell the item at all. However, as I've said in my previous post, when these things occur, your generally dealing with a novice who thinks they're gonna get a fortune for their widget. They...- Undertow

Santa Claus Is Over
I can only imagine this is the exception rather than the rule. Kids messed up by 'no Santa Clause' may just have been messed up prior to finding out. Sounds like the above example is one of those people that may have had other issues had it not been his "Unit". Maybe he would have been mad...- Undertow

Which religious group?
I really like this statement and I think this definitely applies to most Judeo-Christian sentiments, even down to how members of the Church of Satan treat one another (not exactly, but to a point). I believe it's interesting how this notion seems to span multiple religions and, in fact, seems...- Undertow

Rolled up shirt sleeves
I wish my Scout master would have had the sense to teach me something useful like that! (Or anything useful for that matter) Unfortunately, my Boy Scout troop spent the majority of its time playing Dungeons&Dragons while a handful of us scouts went stir crazy, got bored and caused trouble...- Undertow

First-time Tuxedo Buyer
I'd say in this day and age, that's a pretty good recommendation Fletch. The DB could be seen as both casual and formal, which means you won't be "overdressing" (such as outdressing a groom) in any purists eyes or underdressing for any black-tie event. And as already stated, you wouldn't have to... -

Hats at Burlington Coat Factory
You don't happen to have any pics do you? I know I bought a fedora from there a year or two ago and for the longest time I thought it was wool felt. It wasn't until recently that I actually looked at the tag on the inside of the liner to realize it was labeled as "fur felt". The quality... -
Another Morrison Fedora!
You might be running into the same problem I'm running into on my Stafford Club Hat thread. It seems no one has heard of the brand, but at least I know the manufacturer. My guess is what Solid says, you're probably dealing with a house brand. If it's a vintage hat, there could be a chance the... -

Which religious group?
Samsa, I think I understood your question and I certainly don’t want to make an answer on behalf of KD. However, if I understood KD’s statement, then let me put forth my interpretation. You’re an American medic on the battlefield after a particularly hairy fight, WWII European Theatre...- Undertow

ebay worries
You know, I always give people the benefit of the doubt and assume they mean well. I know for a fact there are many normal people on eBay who are quite scatter brained and don't realize how professional they're expected to be. Chances are, most of you have run into honest people who quickly...- Undertow

Hat Renovation
Hey, not too bad, congrats! How did it feel to 'customize' your first hat? Any tips for us would-be customizers? -
Rolled up shirt sleeves
I've seen most gentlemen only roll once, maybe twice. I guess I'm a hoodlum because I roll until the sleeve is just past my elbow. My technique is the same as resortes'.- Undertow

The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
Oh Crimeny, I know what you mean; I have one of those women here. You just can't ignore the person and even in silence, they comment on everything. I want to articulate what I'd like to do to these people...but I guess I shouldn't. :rage: -
The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
I USED TO frequent a Subway sandwich shop by my office. I'd go in and get the same thing every single time (Italian BMT w/pepperjack, toasted, with onions, black olives and mayo , in case you're wondering). The first time (and only the first time) I went, I was able to order with no...
