    Time to get those straws out, eh?

    Thankfully, it's been too nice lately to need a panama, which is extremely odd for where I live. But, I'm sure I'll get a lot of wear on mine before the summer's over.

    Today's Classic Films

    Maybe this has been touched on before and maybe this isn't the right places for this discussion, but what does everyone think today's classic movies will be? When classic films are brought up, they usually talk about Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Citizen Kane, Wizard of Oz, etc... So, I would...

    The Animated Feature

    Fortunately fate went everyone else's way and we have a really good movie to remember instead of having to think about an hour and sixteen minutes of excrutiating pain and terror. Okay, maybe that description is a little harsh, and I do apologize, but I don't care too much for Gulliver's...

    Chariots of Fire

    Too bad. This is one of the best movies that I have seen, and I would like to see an equally good DVD version of it. Which DVD version did you see, Matt? I went to amazon and saw this link to one version and another link to a two disc version. I had hoped that the two disc set would be a good...

    Welcome aboard, Picker! I've only heard good things about Steve and the AB hats he makes (even though I don't own one). Let us know how you like it when it arrives! Once again, welcome.

    Swimmers help! Carebear

    I definitely agree with this. If you have this problem: You might want to take time out just to feel what it is like to float on the water. I've never served in the military, but I taught swimming lessons for a couple of years and learned a few things on the way. First of all, if you miss...

    The hat does look pretty nice. Congratulations on finding one at Burlington Coat Factory. Keep up the good work!

    What do you guys think?

    That's a nice suit. I also like the pinstripe, it's very nice and it adds a lot to the suit.

    Bicycle Helmet?!

    Like jtlinn, I also commute by bike and generally ride a lot. One day I was riding in a quiet neighborhood when I was hit head-on by a motorcyclist who came around a blind turn on the wrong side of the road. My bike was toast (so was my helmet) but I escaped with a few scrapes, bruises, and a...

    Casablanca

    My brother just rented this movie on DVD and I am going to watch it with him tonight. He hasn't seen it yet and he's pretty excited. However, I think seeing it on the big screen would be much better. This last summer I was able to see The Maltese Falcon on the big screen and that was exciting...

    Does anyone still wear this summer work straw?

    I wear one of these for yard work, they really suit the summer weather here in Southeast Missouri. Just like NB, my hat has a wider brim, so I generally only use it for yard work and not much else. If you could let us know how well the hat works for you RBH, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Westerns & Singing Cowboys?

    If you are looking for female western stars, there aren't many that come to my mind, but there are a couple that I have seen some westerns. Maureen O'Hara appeared in Buffalo Bill, Comanche Territory, Rio Grande, McLintock, and Big Jake (which was much later). She was one of the few women that...

    The Family Farm

    My Grandpa was a farmer in Iowa until he couldn't keep up with the work anymore. He mostly raised crops and a few cattle. He still has the land and keeps it maintained, leasing out fields for others to grow crops. The land is beautiful, but a poorly-managed industrial hog farm was put in...

    Hat Opinions Needed!

    Can you put the web address in the Merchants' Forum? Anyways, those are really great hats! I especially like the first one (of the original set of pictures). Keep up the good work! Oh, and Dr Trinidad you are right, the movie with John Wayne, James Caan, and Robert Mitchum was called El...

    "Why Won't You Die!?"

    In Alfred Hitchcock's "The Lady Vanishes" an elderly lady jumps off a train and gets gunned down while trying to flee for her life. Or does she? At the end of the movie, she shows up again, presumably unscathed by the barrage of heavy gunfire.

    New Star Trek

    This thread just caught my eye. Back in September, McPeppers posted this picture: Last night I saw on the History channel that the Fedora and Trenchcoat Patrick Stewart (I don't know his name on the show) was wearing in this picture were auctioned off at Christie's in New York, along with a...

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    This site has a large number of watches that have a nice, vintage look to them here. But the price is anywhere from $1,000 to $20,000. There are some decent-looking Invicta watches here and some some Seiko watches here, both of which are at Amazon.com. However, even the more vintage-looking...

    "Why Won't You Die!?"

    House on Haunted Hill with Vincent Price featured this gimmick and it actually worked pretty effectively. The theme of a person dying/not really dying was used in "Murder by Death," in a humorous way, as Alec Guiness's and Truman Capote's characters are killed and then reappear later. At least...
