Very nice. Where can I get one?

I've noticed caps, news boy, cabbie style, seem to be coming back. At least among men of a certain age who want something more stylish than a ball cap. Also seen a few pork pies around. Although it may be more from Breaking Bad than anything else.

Now that brings back memories of k.p. in the field.

Good Whiskey, redheads, and a nice smooth cigar.

I miss the mountains. Illinois is not known for it's landscape.

I worked at an Ace Hardware for years and one customer always called me Jack, even though my name tag said John, so I went with it. I started learning how to sew recently, and the first thing I did was patch a shirt. It seemed appropriate.

I love Autumn! The smell of fallen leaves, bonfires, spiced pumpkin anything, Halloween. Now if we could only skip winter that would be grand. I grew up in the foot hills of Pa. Entire hill sides would be alive with color this time of year.

I have a sewing machine and some scrap. I'll be styling like Johnny in no time.

Reality T.V. The "24 hour news cycle". Plastic (way to overused) Made in China, Taiwan, Pakistan, etc. Rap MTV anything Work from home, I want to relax at home. D.D.T. S.U.V.s Dollar Coins the size of a quarter. The penny A card for every store so I can get the special deals. My wallet is only...

I use Ma'am more from military training then anything. I address people I don't know as Ma'am, Miss, or Sir, even people I know get the same treatment more often than not. My job has me on the phones working with customers. Unless I have spoken to the caller several times and know them well...

Love it.

Yes sir, that about raps it up.

Between Netflix, Amazon, Roku, and the internet they only reason I have a T.V. is to get the a fore mentioned channels on a big screen. "Reality" shows have lowered the collective I.Q. of this country by at least 20 points.
