I haven't been around the lounge much lately but I just picked up this...

The first nice hat I owned is a Templeform by Stylepark that had been my grandfather's. Can't tell you anything about the company but it's a beautiful hat, great felt and it's held up very well. That's great looking hat you've got.

Recently won this on ebay. Citation Delegate, which I'd never heard of before. If anyone is familiar with Citation, please fill me in. More pics to come.

I've gone through a couple pairs of Borns that I've found very comfortable. Had some Rockports before that that I was happy with. I've heard raves about Mephistos (I once worked for the J. Peterman Co. and we sold them) but I've found them cost prohibitive.

I've never tried it for something like this, but I've used a product called Nature's Miracle for all sorts of things. It's an enzyme and it's primarily intended for removing pet stains and odors but it works on anything organic. Might be worth a try.

The last movie I saw that really knocked me out was Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Mentioned elsewhere that I just got a TW2 at a very fair price at REI.com. I've had an Airflow for years but it may have disappeared after a recent job in Indiana. Still hoping it turns up. Not what I prefer to wear around town but great hats for dealing with the elements.

I'd try wearing it for some small errand -- a quick run to the grocery store or picking up the dry cleaning -- just to get used to the idea of having it on your head in public. Also, realize that hat racks are not as common as they once were, so you may find yourself putting it under your...

Agreed. Grinding the beans is just part of the process of making the coffee for me and it has been for 20 years. The time spent is negligible. Burr grinders are much better although they can be pricey.

I have something similar on this Mallory: Seems to land somewhere between the Knox and the millitary hats. Dig the ribbon on the Knox.

If anyone is interested in a very practical if arguably less fashionable winter hat, the Tilley TW2 is half price at REI.com. Just got mine delivered today and I think I'll be very happy with it, even if I have to wait until fall to get much use out of it. It came highly recommended by...

Looks like too many cards for any poker games I know of. Strip canasta, perhaps.

Recently got this new Biltmore pork pie:

Probably should have come and introduced myself here before I started posting all willy-nilly. Where are my manners? Hi. I'm Juggles. I found the Lounge while surfing for a good place to buy a hat since the Mad Hatter in Lexington, Kentucky closed its doors (and ultimately got bulldozed, but...

Just mentioned this in the bow ties thread. I gave all my groomsmen proper bow ties but it meant that I had to tie them all before the ceremony since none of them knew how.
