    Besides English, What Languages Do You Speak?

    After 28 years of marriage, and two daughters, I'm starting to pick up a bit of "female". With three ladies in the house, it nearly impossible to get by without at least a working knowledge. Still amazed at how many times I think I know what they're saying, only to find later, that I had no clue.

    Impulse boot buy

    Have you considered the Red Wing Heritage option? I share Damo's issue with the 1000 mile boots. The smooth leather sole is like ice on many surfaces. The Iron Rangers don't have a tread, but the RW Beckman's do. Here is a picture of them in black (several other colors are available)...

    Who Can Wear the Aero Barnstormer?

    Thanks! I love the jacket, and have been trying to get my wife or daughter to snap a few of this one and the 30's halfbelt, now that they're a year old. I need a sunny weekend with nothing on the calendar. Unfortunately, those are few and far between :-(

    Who Can Wear the Aero Barnstormer?

    I have the Barnstormer in Cordovan HH. Here are a couple of shots when brand new (last year) Its a size 46, so there is plenty of room for layering a heavier sweater if needed. If I had my way, the sleeves would be a tad shorter. I have noticed some bleeding of the cordovan. Ruined a...

    Show us your Guns!

    It is full auto (as is the Swedish K), and therefore most definitely pre-ban. Federal law enacted in 1986 prohibited the manufacture of any new machine guns that would be available for sale to civilians. Any made after that point could only be owned by law enforcement agencies of those licensed...

    Show us your Guns!

    Only about 5 years. Surprisingly, with all of the ridiculous restrictions in MA, machine guns are permitted. We just need a separate license, which (not surprisingly) many chiefs don’t issue. If you are in Boston proper, then you certainly have experienced the worst of our gun ownership laws :-(

    Steve McQueen/Porsche Leather Jacket

    Sorry, but that looks utterly uninteresting . I say that, fully acknowledging how much of McQueen's style I admired. Maybe if it were in the tan cotton, I'd give it a second look.
