I'm lovin' the straws as felt season slips away but must confess that Rusty's Marathon and Douglas's Featherweight are real beauties. It seems that the straw season(s) just keep getting longer here in Texas.
Today I'm sportin' last summer's multi-colored straw (I think it's actually...
Darhling, IMHO red hair on the right woman and done with subtlety can be absolutely stunning. I favor the Rita Red which comes across as classy rather than brassy. I believe you'll be stopping traffic as a redhead since you are equally lovely as a blonde or a brunette. I'm looking forward to the...
Thank you, scotrace.
Here are the Boy Scout Oath, Law, Motto, and Slogan. As a boy and a man, I have found these precepts to be of value fpr myself and for boys I have had the privilege to work with.

I don't personally know anyone who would "look forward" to a stressful situation. That is what a break-in, robbery, assault, almost any confrontation is...a stressful situation.
This sort of situation elicits a chemical response, a response that is often...
These zyl frames were my reading glasses until I broke them. Now I'm looking for another pair.
I recently picked up these two pair of NOS zyl frames on Ebay.
