    King Tut's Curse, Redux

    I've always found the Mummies Curse very interesting. I believe there simply has to be an explanation for most of the cases. Of course I think it's fun to contemplate the mystery over Brandy and cigars with friends after good meal! :)

    You know you've spent too much time on the Lounge when...

    I was at an antique shop yesterday looking over their EXCELLENT collection of hats (all of which are too small for me) and the fellow working there asked why I liked them so much. I said rather frankly, "Well, they're vintage fur felt, first of all, which makes them just wonderful," to which...

    First-time Tuxedo Buyer

    If you're really interested, be sure to check the current thread with some advice here:Do You Own A Tux And most importantly, read this thread thoroughly: Formal Wear Primer Because you're still in high school and therefore, prone to growing horizontally and vertically, you should probably...

    Fashion Disasters OR Discovering My Inner Snob

    I can say from experience that it has been those little friendly reminders that have made all the difference in my behaviors and practices. Just one single example: I was applying for a position at a large retail chain's corporate branch in Iowa, I was going to be responding to emails sent to...

    Do you own a Tux?

    I also have two year-round combos: SB notch and DB shawl. Both were modest investments and so far, both have paid off IMO. I would say I am invited to 2-3 formal events a year, although to call them 'black tie' is to push a boundary as the majority of patrons are suited in dingy sport...

    Paul's Hat Works

    I think with all the knowledge heaped on this board, as well as all the experiences, recommendations and differing interests, you should have a fairly certain answer regarding $1500 hats. It's along the same lines as this: would you pay $275 at a tourist shop in Italy to get a magnifying glass...

    Which religious group?

    I'm agnostic. I have a big ? above my bed. lol But seriously, I believe all religions are like slivers on the spectrum of Truth. None are false but none can wholly explain the truth. It's like saying the color red defines all light. I think you see my point. I believe "God" or "the One"...

    Santa Claus Is Over

    I believe it is beneficial to preserve a sense of na?Øve awe in a child; although that sense of awe wanes with age, and finally disappears. However, I also think parents should help garner a propensity to analyze fact from fiction. I don‚Äôt think allowing a child to be hoodwinked will cause...

    So when did the boater sink from popular wear?

    I love The Sting, especially for its costumes. I remember the FBI agents costumes distinctly, and I remember thinking, "I like those hats, but I don't think they look right with those suits." Now I think I have a different appreciation for both hats AND suits. :) I faintly remember the...

    Button-Down Collars with Suits

    From what I've gathered on some of those other forums, as well as some of your opinions, it sounds like a BD collar is simply just another type of collar but with a few "expectations", if you will. Somewhere else on the board I read mention of wing collars being worn with regular suits and...

    Come to Rick's

    My 2 cents, for what it's worth You know, I think this sounds great too, but I would hesitate with some of the more fantastic ideas. You want the average guy to be able to walk in and enjoy himself as much as the well-dressed one. In other words, you want to MAKE business, not turn it away...
