    Religion in the 40's & 50's

    Did all of that come out of my mouth?? I cant answer your question, so I'll shut up! You would probably need to ask someone who was actually around during that time period for a decent answer to your question. I'm not sure how many people here qualify.

    Has anyone tried contacting (Indy)Magnoli Clothiers? This seems to be right up his alley.

    Beatles leather

    Dont think I've ever seen much info on these, but maybe someone knows something. The lads picked these up in Hamburg circa '61-'62. Any info on who made them, or if you can get one like it today? I personally like the FF better after they switched to suits, but the leathers were a nice look too.

    TOP TEN FAVORITE 1970's MOVIES.

    Yes, that was rather "bonkers" wasnt it? It's "out there" to place un-called for stereotypes onto people for liking a certain kind of film, isnt it? Like calling someone a 12 year old who lives in his parents basement for liking a certain type of movie, huh? The only "action figures" in my house...

    TOP TEN FAVORITE 1970's MOVIES.

    Actually, I dont think about SW anymore than most people do. But, I wont stand for anyone blowing it off and not respecting the status it has achieved in our popular culture. I have plenty of time to devote to any number of subjects, and I do. This is a place for discussion, is it not? I'm...

    TOP TEN FAVORITE 1970's MOVIES.

    Wow, your bitter! Yes, they were mostly borrowed ideas, but they were strung together so effectively, thats what made it great. Coppola once said of Lucas something to the effect of, "He has few notions about creating great film or great art. Consequently he comes closer than most." High...

    TOP TEN FAVORITE 1970's MOVIES.

    How can anyone hate the 1st Star Wars? Do you also hate kittens, sunshine and love?? I agree, the prequels were tripe, but A New Hope is the original, the one and only! Cinematically, it is the only one out of all 6 that could be considered a real achievement. It is so kinetic. It is so...

    Tax Refund Time!!!

    Well, in my opinion, Gibson & Barnes jackets are very well made, but I want something more accurate, (not a 'modern' cut). I'm thinking this one... Aero's standard seal brown Horsehide

    Are you ugly 'cause yer mad or are ya mad 'cause yer ugly?

    That looks good on you, but I like a more vintage look. Something with reverse taper but a narrow brim like yours. My AB will have a fairly wider brim, obviously, 'cause it's an 'Indy' hat, but I'd like another reverse tapered fedora, grey, with a narrow brim like the one you are wearing above...

    DVD Screen grabs

    If there is anyone out there who can do a screen grab from Raiders of the Lost Ark for me, please reply. I need a printout of one specific shot for an illustration I'm going to do, and I dont have the software to do a screen grab. It needs to be printed out at least 8"x10", I would pay you for...

    Tax Refund Time!!!

    I've got $673 smackers on the way from Uncle Sam, and while that might not seem like much to some, Its no small windfall to me!!! So what should I blo- er, spend it on?? If you had a spare $673, what would you spend it on? I just got a new Expedition from GB, and now I think I want a good A-2...

    Are you ugly 'cause yer mad or are ya mad 'cause yer ugly?

    Sheesh. Things arent that bad between us, yet. We've been together 6 years and have a 2 year old daughter, so I dont see us splitting up over hats anytime soon. The only really serious diversion, time spent away from her, is my illustration time. Sometimes I need to be left alone to finish a...

    Pipe Smoking

    I agree with the above method. One important piece of advice that always stuck out in my mind was not to overpack the bowl. Your not stuffing a turkey here! If the tobbaco is packed to hard they will be no small spaces for air to flow through allowing the tobbaco to burn properly. Gurgle is also...

    The Untouchables...

    Am I the only one here who has never and never will like this film? Maybe it's Kevin Costner's complete lack of emotion, or the horrible music, or the blatant thieviery of the 'Steps' sequence, but overall, I just dislike it. Not even Sean Connery and DeNiro could save it for me. It was one of...
