    Threads That Go Astray

    Just like in countless other forums, blogs, etc..., internet anonymity affords posters an opportunity to say things they would never say in public. In short: it enables cowards. Puzzicato's word - bullies. And to further piggyback her post, it ultimately makes this place no better than any...

    Threads That Go Astray

    I wrote a longish thread starter around this very thing yesterday, then thought better; that it would likely just unravel. It was focused largely on your third paragraph, but it was pretty transparent in that I was clearly calling some folks out. Talk about spinning your wheels - not very...

    Vintage Shorts

    I have an answer! Better still, I can do it without being smug, coy, or any other sort of condescending adjective. ...aaaannnnnd, dammit, I just noticed you're in Finland... Welp, here you go anyway: I was in the same boat just a few weeks ago. Needed some shorts, and I too was pretty sick of...

    A very diplomatic response, ma'am. Music is a pretty easy button to push for a lot of folks and likely my favorite for having pointless arguments/debates over, where there can't be a winner. I'm going to go listen to my Iron Maiden Covers Glen Miller's Classics, now...* *a series of 78s, of...

    I'll read that as the gag I think it was intended to be, but think it's a shame that some folks feel it's a reasonable position to assume. Even if a person is so ill informed as to discount all "popular music" after such-and-such-a date, does that mean no Samuel Barber and the like? No Marsalis'...

    girls in guy's garb

    I may have some trouble sorting out the fact that the woman represented in the picture is lesbian, but she's pretty ideally attractive to me: http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj290/safdkiltie/tumblr_l3hj9ynMmC1qztk1wo1_1280.jpg I'm sure a psycho to be analyzed in that sentiment, somewhere...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I haven't gotten a new hat worth posting in a good while, but here's one I've put up before - Stetson Playboy. Looking back at some recent posts, I really like jwalls' hat on page 3401 - neat color!

    Fist bump vs hand shake

    The elbow bumps came from not wanting to contaminate another person, especially with blood. It's not really all that frequent. Still, it think it's preferable to one guy's habit of giving out a LOT of hugs ( earning him the nickname Captain Huggybear )...

    Fist bump vs hand shake

    At my workplace, the handshake is deeply ingrained in the culture, such that 'helloes' and 'goodbyes' in groups of upwards of twenty-five or more guys can get pretty tedious*. Due to the semi-obligatory nature, the guys will often feel compelled to follow through even in the performance of...

    Pics of Your FlightJacket.com A-2

    Thanks! I got that jacket right at the beginning of the fall. As far as breaking it in; for several days, any time I sat down to read or watch a movie, I had it in my lap rolling it and squashing it. For the rest of the season and into our comparatively mild South Texas winter, it got heavy use...

    Pics of Your FlightJacket.com A-2

    First, the obligatory apology for looking a little 'off' in these pics. I'm getting a little old to be acting as foolish as I do at times... Now, as you can better see in these pics, this is the horsehide in russet. The thing is built really, really well, and I can't remember anyone having a...

    Pics of Your FlightJacket.com A-2

    I'm sure you've looked around and seen the debates about these A-2s on this sight. Having said that, I do have one, and as soon as I can get somebody to shoot a pic of me, I'll post it ( hopefully within the next few hours ). On the plus side, for me, I'm a little 'long-waisted', so the length...

    Real McCoy Dunbow 46

    I'm have a Real McCoy Dunbow reproduction. It is a size 46, but better suited to a 44 or 42 even. The shell is in excellent shape. The left cuff has a pencil eraser sized moth bite and the waistband has two nibbles about the same size. I would prefer to trade for an A-2 of similar quality in a...

    a2 horsehide mcCoy jacket

    That's the price. I've seen time and again, even with the "downturn", items that have collectible value don't decrease significantly, if at all. There will always be a market. You may see people letting these things go for a song to make a bill or whatever, but not new off the rack from the...
