    Feather-brand straight razors

    Interesting. So, as far as the safety razor blades go, the Feather ones held up? Just thinking that the quality of their safety blades might say something about their straights.

    Ladies with cigarettes

    I don't even want to look at this.

    Pipe Smoking

    My favorite pipe is a Britannia, it was like $50 in a retail store. The $100+ pipes are really out of my price range but I didn't want to settle for something really low-quality, and this was a good find. I guess they are seconds from either Comoys or Dunhill, which are both really good...

    Feather-brand straight razors

    Question first, and then the background: does anyone have any experience with Feather brand straight razors? Any good? I'm working on my perpetual "wish list" and thinking that with Father's Day on the horizon I might want to upgrade from the ol' Bic disposable razors to something a little...

    Anyone else can't bring themselves to wear vintage/used shoes ?....

    It seems like it's easy enough to get new shoes in classic styles, that unless you have a shoe fetish and need to go easy on the pocket book, it doesn't make sense to me to buy used. I only buy shoes once a year and if I can't afford it I hint-drop around Christmas or my birthday.

    Anyone else can't bring themselves to wear vintage/used shoes ?....

    Shoes are interesting. I have no phobias about sticking my feet into a pair of shoes which previously contained someone else's feet. The thing that someone mentioned is that everyone's foot is different and people break their shoes in differently. Also, I am rough on footwear and I want maximum...

    "The Adjustment Bureau" might be the movie that brings back Wearing Hats...

    I want to see this. Also, Shutter Island made me want to buy a trench coat.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I am watching this indie c-movie called "Hot Rod Girls Save the World". The dialog is terrible but other than that it's 100% awesome.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I've been trying to watch "Dial M For Murder" for the past couple nights and have fallen asleep. Not because it's boring but because I start it late and movies have been known to activate my snooze switch.

    Hair cuts

    Right about where yours start to taper off on the way down...that's about where my beard tapers off on the way up.

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    They had the page in the back with all the maps of the world. When I was about 6 or so I found it entertaining to draw them all out. I don't think that was a completely useless exercise, actually.

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    I grew up in a little town on an island completely off the map. It's a very post-industrial place, no opportunities for young folks, which is sad. But it's retained a lot of it's old-fashioned charms simply because everyone who stays there has lived there forever and all the customers still...

    Tattoos.

    These are interesting ideas, I agree with a lot of them. I also detest the "billboard clothes". My opinion is that if I'm going to have a brand splashed across my chest they should be paying ME to wear it, not the other way around. But my tattoos are different. I also keep mine above the elbows...

    Favorite type of Steak

    A porterhouse when I can get a good one without giving up an arm and a leg. My go-to steak is a ribeye. I like 'em pan fried in olive oil medium.
