    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    This is the time of year where Michael would be consistent in posting his incredible coats and hats off… really concerned. Does anyone here have any idea of how he is? Any way to check on him at all? Just seems unlikely and uncharacteristic of him to just quit the group cold turkey. :( Miss that...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    My latest favorite is today’s new acquisition! NOS Mallory. (Don’t know the date for this but sold as a 1950s but could be 60s?) looks to have never been worn! Very minty! A rich dark chocolate with a nice contrasting lighter brown grosgrain ribbon and trim which goes perfectly with my dark...

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Jim Beam Kentucky Fire I have always been a fan of “cinnamon hot” candies and enjoy the scent of cinnamon so knocking back shots of this sweet and mellow mix of cinnamon liqueur and Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey makes for one hell of a shot… or four! Lol!

    Favorite '30s and '40s photos?

    The girl with the mug looks like she would cook enough food to feed an army, keep the furnace stoked, pack your lunch pail and keep your work clothes “warshed”, then assist you if “The car needs fixed,” but she’ll whip your ass into next week if you give her any lip! Lol!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Vivacious Lady (1938) James Stewart & Ginger Rogers… boy oh boy Ginger Rogers sure knew how to turn on that Good Girl/Sassy Girl charm! A very basic and simple love story elevated to perfection with Stewart’s and Rogers’s performance. Ginger is captivating. Her sense of cute humor and flirty...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

She was just 18 and was “discovered“ because of her looks… Being only 18 she was naïve but excited to sign the contract with Paramount… They hired an acting coach for her since she had no experience so clearly they just...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Uninvited (1944) Ray Milland, Ruth Hussey, Donald Crisp, Cornelia Otis Skinner and the outstandingly gorgeous Gail Russell this is a fantastic ghost story that I feel was probably one of the inspirations for Steven Spielberg‘s Poltergeist… It’s very creepy and haunting in a very...

    Wow! I need to rewatch that… I recall distinctly thoroughly enjoying that film back when it came out. I’m a big John Malkovich fan. Uma was so much better looking with a little baby fat on her :D she is still a very attractive woman and looks much better these days but at one point she went...
