    End of Manual-Transmission Era - Honda Accord

    My mechanic told me of a client that took his work pick-up to a tire store to get new sneaker for it. Dropped it off and went back to his shop. Thirty minutes later tire store calls. He sees the caller id and gleefully answers expecting to pick up his truck after super fast service only to...

    To those grappling with the stiffness and sheer amount of felt in the CD it's a frustrating task until you just take a nice walk in the rain. It just turns into a very agreeable hat in my experience. It's a working hat and seems to respond to its time in the elements. Tom D.

    Charlie Gracie. Rockabilly giant of the early 50's to the present. Praised and feted by english rockers. Actually expected to be paid for his work so was pushed aside by record companies. He would play anywhere and for anyone. He played once at an annual dinner of 'The Lower Merion Society...

    End of Manual-Transmission Era - Honda Accord

    The frame on my 95 YJ finally cracked and disolved at multiple locations. Wound up with a 2023 Subaru Crosstrek. It was the only manual transmission on the lot. It's a car. Good mileage, especially compared to the Jeep but after driving CJ's and YJ's for nearly thirty years it's just no fun...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Odd thing is that when circumference of a selected size is measured on the devise it's dead on the nose. There must be too much play in the guides. I think I've inflicted enough abuse on this poor steed. I'll let it rest in peace. Tom D.

    Post New Hats Here!

    That's pretty much the plan. I'm an ELO so the inaccuracies are from 1 to 1.25. My wife is 6 7/8 to 7 1/8 I'm 7 1/2+1/6th. I was offered a partial refund, amount as yet undetermined, which I'll probably take. Fortunately the underside of the device has room for chart. The arc looks to be a...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Not a new hat but hat related. Took a chance on a hat gauge. Fast delivery but a full size discrepancy or worse on measurements. The return process should be an adventure. Tom D.
