    A breakdown of Fedora Loungers by sex, location, age and marital status

    It's not "settling" that's the issue with me. There are some possibilities, but I'm not interested due to unrequited (so far as I know) feelings. So I've got to steel myself to reality and try to resolve that situation, before I can bring myself to move on. So yeah, I'm depressed about being...

    Happy Birthday!

    Happy birthday! It's mine too! I'd offer you a glass of the wine I'm drinking, bt the bottle is a bit wider than the cable connected to the back of my cable mode, so I don't think that would work.

    Beaver BELL CURVE Top hat for sale.

    That's a beautiful hat. I wish I could afford it, and that my head could fit in it.

    RUM?!

    Sailor Jerry is a good spiced rum. I'm not really a fan of spiced rums, though. They're tasty, just not something I would go for most of the time. Meyers is decent, inexpensive, and readily available. It's pretty good neat from a mug, or mixed with RC Cola, and I always have a bottle on hand...

    Finally got a collar bar - (A new collar bar thread) - Post Links & Pics.

    I was thinking of getting myself one of these (maybe two; one gold, one silver, as I assume one matches it with their belt buckle?). Do you just wear it with the standard point collar dress shirt, but with no stays inserted?

    Key chains.

    I've got a nifty little retracting thing that clips onto my belt loop. I only have my RFID badge on it, though, that I hold up to doors at work to get into various areas. After holding it to a pad to open a door, I just drop it and ZZZZZZIIIP it goes back to my belt, completely covered by my...

    Hand-Crank Coffee Grinders

    As far as simple non-electric coffee MAKERS go, my favorite is probably the simple manual drip model. It consists of a plastic cone into which you place a regular paper coffee filter full of grounds, and pour water over the top. The cones generally sit right on top of a thermos, so your coffee...

    Advice on Tailoring Jacket

    I have a similar issue in that I have no idea how to find a good tailor. I've never had anything tailored before (other than hemming/cuffing pants, but I just have that done where I buy them), and don't know people in my area that would know about such things, and I don't really have any jackets...

    My parents named me Indiana Jones

    OK, that's great.

    I inherited a coat that may be quite expensive...not sure what to do with it??

    Take it to a good tailor and get it taken in. Then wear it whenever it's chilly and you want to dress up a bit. I'll wear my nylon/poly North Face coat when I'm doing something like hiking, skiing, shoveling snow, or working on my car, but I wear an overcoat to work and otherwise out in...

    Learning to Dance

    Yeah, I think the problem I have is with follows that, rather than matching how much pressure I am giving them, give whatever pressure they are used to giving, so I match what they are giving me back once I realize they aren't adjusting to my lead. I can work with it, no problem. It's still...

    Did I just invent a drink?

    Sounds like you could add a good hefty dose of black coffee to that. Maybe espresso.

    Learning to Dance

    Some follows are really "heavy" follows, too; it isn't just a problem with the leads. I've danced with girls that... I'm not sure what it is that they are doing, but it's like there is too much tension in their arms, and they throw their entire weight into the moves. I think it's over-correcting...

    Khaki on Kahki? The wife says no...

    I, also, have had comments about it. No "safari" comments, mind you, just a remark about wearing stuff that was too close in color. I thought I was pretty careful to wear rather different colored clothing, but I had to defend my choice to a girl I was talking to even when my chinos were so light...

    Anywhere sell button fly pants?

    I was at Target buying a new pair of jeans (regular 'ol $20 Levis) and noticed some of the pricier Levis (the ones where you pay an extra $80 to have some kid in a third-world country roll about in the mud while wearing your future jeans) had button flies. Probably not what you are looking for...

    GQ advice we all ignore

    The first two are definitely a lot worse than the last picture, IMO.

    Rules on Shoe color?

    I only manage three days most weeks :( Then again, I am a 23 year old in IT. Most of my co-workers take the dress code literally (which is basically "something nicer than jeans, and a collared shirt").

    Manhattans

    I'm going to go grab a Manhattan right now. No cherries on hand, unfortunately.
