    Pleated pants

    From my observations buying pants in recent years virtually all pleated pants today have the pleats (the open part) facing out to the sides. I think this makes the pants balloon out and makes the wearer look fatter. I prefer pleats that face inward towards each other. This seems to turn the...

    Get TV

    I just discovered a new broadcast old movie network. It is called Get TV. A station here in mid-Michigan started airing it as one of it's sub-channels.

My question is that I just got a tophat that is 7 3/8 but it feels a bit big. With a felt hat I can pad under...
