    I thought people might enjoy seeing these photos. I was fortunate to attend the 68th Doolittle Raiders reunion at the National Museum of the US Air Force in Dayton, OH in April 18, 2010. First is the group of B-25s parked on the museum runway before a fly over. The second is of the memorial...

    Batsakes Bros (Gus Miller)-blocked Ecuadorian Panama

    Great looking hat, Tom. I visited Gus a few weeks ago. He is going to make a custom fedora for me once I decide on the details. Good luck with the new hat - another reason to look forward to warm weather.

    Aero Horsehide stain transfer

    Solutions? My black Barnstormer has also faded on a few shirts - especially when damp due to weather or perspiration. If we want the bleed to stop it seems a coating of some sort is the answer. Not doing so, sending it back, etc. won't address the problem, if you want to keep the jacket...

    Careers........What to do?

    I'm curious - how do they do their production/editing now? I might suggest asking them if you can contact the other videographers and production/editing people in the company to discuss their daily tasks and work atmosphere. Also, of course, check their financials - and if they referenced work...

    OH-IO Who lives in the Buckeye state

    ! I'm in SW Ohio. I have a Bailey fedora, and am still planning on a custom order at Batsakes. Perhaps a similar lid to Bogey's in the Maltese Falcon... I am mostly interested in vintage style outerwear. I have an Avirex A2 (from 1997), a 1985 London Fog trench coat (bought new) and a...

    Ouch! Not fun at all indeed. After the second restart of the power, it has remained on. I feel lucky now, especially after your post Orgetorix. Mark

    How much snow do you have?

    . 4" of snow, but 2" of freezing rain and windy. There are still 80,000 without power in southern Ohio. Power has been out here twice for 7 and 4 hours. Not much fun when the temperature is 15 degrees... Mark
