    Due to the warm weather, I have switched over to Paco Rabanne One Million Parfum. A more floral scent great for spring and early summer.

    Bow Ties

    I enjoy wearing bowties. They're unusual especially in a more casual setting. However, worn with a casual ensemble it does add a nice flair.

    Show us your vintage home!

    I love seeing your beautiful old homes. Thank you for sharing. I'm trying to get where I can afford one for myself. Luckily I can do the update work myself.

    Show us your FREE swag!

    I wish I had at least gotten a picture of them but when I had my construction business I was asked to do some work for a low income elderly lady. She felt bad that I was volunteering my work and so she agreed to trade my work for a pair of lamps. To her they were just some old glass lamps. When...

    USPS Ground Advantage Gripes

    Yup. I do a lot of reloading of ammunition and order in powder and primers quite often. FedEx will deliver them across the street more often than not.

    USPS Ground Advantage Gripes

    I got my mailman fired after showing proof he was tossing my mail and packages into an empty lot. Literally just throwing them out the window onto the ground. Sad part is that it was within 20 feet of my mailbox. He had to drive past my very well marked mailbox to toss everything out onto the...

    How to "destink" a vintage leather?

    I use the strongest cheap vodka I can find. Works wonders on cloth smells and doesn't leave a mark or scent behind. But that's more for organic stinks. Sweat and the like. Also works as a disinfectant killing the microbes. It might work on a wet dog type smell. Musty odors could be coming from...

    Advice on a jacket with odd measurments?

    Some jackets have narrow arm holes compared to the "one-size-fits-all" that are much more the standard. It could have been a custom made. A lot of shirts may not fit that well unless they too have narrower arm holes. Once you get it figured out you may find that it's a much more comfortable...

    The Trials and Tribulations of Hat Stiffener

    Resurrecting a slightly old thread as I have a relevant question. I just picked up a Knox Foxhound Long hair. I very much like the hat but it is so soft that it won't hold shape in the crown or brim. I was thinking of getting a bottle of the Bickmore Hat stiffener. Would using this damage the...

    Best material for hot climate

    I vote linen or cotton. If you can get a tropical weight wool those are comfortable as well. I have a linen suit but hesitate to wear it. I also have a seersucker suit that is extremely comfortable. It's got texture but that's part of the look. You can get solids in seersucker that look great...
