    Beaucaillou and Cacklewack are Famous! Fedora Loungers Make Good!

    Wow. First Fedora Lounge event I EVER went to, in 2007 I think, my wife and I met Cacklewack/Matt along with MK, Brooksie, and one other person at the McMenamin's St. John in Portland! Cacklewack was a really nice person.

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Lucian Freud, the last Habsburg, and Amy Winehouse. I just finished listening to "Back to Black" in honor of the last; I may reread "The Fall of the Dynasties" in honor of the second, and look at the colossal ugly (but amazing) nudes of Freud in honor of him.

    Exciting archaeological discoveries....

    Moderately repulsive thing on Roman sewer full of human excrement and some moderately interesting other things. I recently saw an entire highly scientific book on coprolites and the archaeological usage of human excrement to understand things about the past; I cannot say that I would wish to...

    Nice to see the summer straws out. I bought a Panama yesterday, but I think I'll buy another straw today, something along the lines of what Javier has. Very handsome.

    Congratulations, Doctor Doran!

    The HBO tv series "Rome" was great. I enjoyed Gladiator. I hated "Troy." Hated "Alexander." I'd love to be a consultant to a series about the Spartan Empire under Lysander.

    Congratulations, Doctor Doran!

    Yep, I have a kid too -- very hard to raise a small child while dealing with paper deadlines and all that!

    Congratulations, Doctor Doran!

    Thanks Tango. But to be fair, a lot of people who get PhDs are partially doing it because they are not married and do not have children and do not have much ambition to make money and are content staying in graduate school for many, many years. Grad school can be a slacker haven if a person can...

    Congratulations, Doctor Doran!

    Thanks, all! The dissertation that I wrote is entitled "Demographic Fluctuation and Institutional Response in Sparta." It concerns the causes and effects of the population crisis in Sparta from the fifth to the early second centuries BC. It gives a new analysis of the seventh-century BC Spartan...

    Vintage style socks: argyle and plaid

    You-all might want to know that Paul Fredrick has a clearance on socks right now, and while some are boring and lame, several of them are very fedora lounge-oriented. The bluish (indigo) plaid ones are particularly nice; the argyles are great too. I just got mine in a moment ago and am pleased...
