Chicago
Well, I'd better throw my tattered hat in: There's a place just in sight of the Belmont rail entrance, or exit as was my case (Blue Line, in case you're wondering). It's a little dive with bar style seating, a tv in the corner and a couple of griddles and fryers in front of you. For the life...- Undertow

Cheap Formalwear? Or Just Cheap?
I've recently stumbled across this website and the prices look pretty good. They have decent selection and I've contacted them a few times with rather slow but thorough results. I don't doubt these folks' integrity, but I wonder if any of you have seen or dealt with them. Formalwear Direct... -
The new topman's flannel suits seem quite nice and affordable as well
It looks fine in the picture, however, I would hesitate to purchase it because I imagine it would fit wrong somehow. I believe this is the sort of thing I'd have to see on a person...in person. And 100 BPS? Man, that's over $200 currently. Not for this suit; not within my budget. Thanks... -
Drunk at the Christmas Party Warning!
I've been to a few of these "parties" and I must agree with all here; it's almost like walking into a loose-triggered trap. I nurse a drink for the night, smile and try to eat just enough to look like I'm enjoying things, but not enough to raise even the slightest comment. Unfortunately, I...- Undertow

Show us your Guns!
Okay, I finally bought what I'd been mulling over forever. Springfield Armory 1911 A1 .45ACP, mil-spec in stainless steel. I realize there were others available (The Loaded package and the Professional used by the FBI) but I was more interested in price, history and style. This gun has it...- Undertow

Navy Shoes?
Oooo, grey homburg! Good idea. I always like an excuse to wear my homburg and a grey one, for a wedding, with that suit set up...makes me drool. :)- Undertow

Proposing Something New to the Fedora Lounge.
I would be happy to be a part of this club! Regarding memberships splitting us as a group: I'm a part of this lounge because I want to be, but I'm unable, for example, to attend the Queen Mary event. I don't feel any less a part of the Lounge due to my inability to attend. If there were an...- Undertow

Getting dinner home
Three Questions: 1. How did Mr. Deer meet his demise? 2. After said demise, was Mr. Deer properly field dressed? 3. If properly field dressed...what in God's name would possess a man to sling a bloody deer carcass over his shoulder and bike it home? I guess if you went hunting for the...- Undertow

Navy Shoes?
And here I thought you meant United States NAVY shoes... I support the previous comments by Edward and Orgetorix. Shoes: Not only is it a hassle to dye a pair of black wingtips, but I believe it will lend a hokey costume look to the ensemble. I think black captoes would be an excellent...- Undertow

The lost art of leftovers
Well, evidently you and I and all of the others on here are freaks of nature because I've always planned meals ahead and finished my leftovers. When I'm at the store, I make sure that anything I buy is filling and easily eaten leftover. So, in practice, I have beef&noodles Monday night and...- Undertow

Classic Arcade and Video Games
Don't forget IDSPISPOPD (no clipping)! I started on an Atari 5200 playing Joust, Pacman and Kangaroo. Moved right up the ladder from NES-PS2. I've also been an avid computer game fan. C&C Red Alert, Retalitor (flight sim) Civilization, and then of course the id games like wolf3d, doom...- Undertow

Age difference between a man and a woman......
My experience tells that it's not the age but the personality that makes the difference. As others have stated before on this thread, if you're in love, if you share common goals, if you share common values, if you share common interests...why not? I'm in a relationship like this right now...- Undertow

Groom's Wedding Attire
My grandmother showed me pictures of weddings from the '30's and '40's. Out of about four seperate weddings, only one had "Formal Attire". [huh] I'm certainly not saying you shouldn't try that, but it seems, from experiences related to me, most "common folk" wore their best suits and...
