    Fountain pens - ostentatious?

    My Duofold Jr set. Unfortunately not matched. The bladder in the pen was shot when I got it from Ebay so I use an old ink cartridge which is just the right size to screw onto the threads inside the pen. I fill the cartridge with a syringe. I found the pencil in an alleyway when I was a kid and...

    How to use real vintage phones on your cell phone line

    I really like being able to have an authentic operative rotary telephone on my desk...now if someone would just ring me. Anyone know where I can get a center ring for this model of phone?

    What are you listening to?

    1920's music on the Internet Archive I found this site and it has a wealth of golden era music. You can listen to it or download. I have listened to some Swell 20's music there. Dan http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=1920%27s%20AND%20mediatype%3Aaudio

    How to use real vintage phones on your cell phone line

    Well, I ponied up the klink and got myself one of these units. I got the Gigaset from RadioShack. It's nice seeing my old AE40 sitting on the desk. One day soon, I will send a photo of my desk area for all to see. Dan

    The fall of the phone

    Matt, I agree with you, although I am glad for many of our technological advances, I find myself annoyed when my cell rings and if I choose not to answer it, my wife is all "Oh what if it is one of the kids? Egad. My cell has a lifetime tally of 78.5 hours in the 4 years I have had it. That's...

    How to use real vintage phones on your cell phone line

    Did you have any of the "duplex" issues that I have read about in some of the customer reviews? It sounds like you are very pleased with your unit. Is there anything you would list as a con in deciding to purchase this item? Also, did you buy the Radio Shack or XLINK version? Thanks, Dan

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    I too enjoy snuff. I prefer Gletscher Prise Menthol. A very fresh and bright sensation. I have quit smoking many times. As long as 12 years and sometimes 2 and 3 years together. I always quit cold turkey. I've been off smokes for about 18 months again and have recently been craving a nice Camel...

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    OOOoooo I am so jealous! You all have found such nice shoes. I do not have such a good time finding vintage or even dress shoes, whether in store or thrift shop. I wear a 13EEE and sometimes 14EEE :( (depending on shoe). I guess these feet of mine would be good for barefoot water skiing, heh.:o...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Thank you Alter Ego for your input. I am in the process of Googling and bookmarking sites that deal in men's head-ware. Many sites show sundry exterior angles of their hats but I don't see any interior views. If I am going to pay more than $150.00 for a hat I want to be assured that the interior...

    Clean shaved in the golden era.

    Thanks Bustercat, I liked the way it turned out, too. My wife took it very well, heh heh. Before I excised the facial fungus, I did a quick Google for pencil mustaches, printed a picture of Vincent Price, grabbed a piece of scotch tape and disappeared into the bathroom with my machete to do...

    Clean shaved in the golden era.

    I've been known to dry shave on occasion when in a hurry. Sometimes it turns out ok and sometimes...well...not so good, heh.[huh] I have very recently tried oil shaving(actually the last 3 shaves so yeah, very, very recently) and I do like it a good deal. It is very soothing. I have always hated...
