    In which WWII army should you have fought?

    Not quibbling, but genuinely curious, I didn't think it was really much of a choice. Many Waffen soldiers were trapped in situations that gave them little or no choice. I know a significant number of Falange volunteers came over to fight on the eatern front, but my anecdotal, cursory...

    In which WWII army should you have fought?

    What 'internet quiz' isn't? ;) Of course the there is only one question needed to answer the question- where were you and when. These were primarily conscription armies.

    In which WWII army should you have fought?

    You scored as Germany. Regardless of what are your political views, you could have made a career in German army. You believe in effective warfare by method of combined arms and superior military training. Are all the 'Germans' hiding, or did I read the thread wrong?

    Vat 69

    http://www.beerliquors.com/buy/liquors/vat_69.htm Other than it being the export version, it orignates from the same house as the original Vat 69. Although I can't imagine it's very good a $16US a bottle or is that just the snob in me? It's otherwise known as the Pope's telephone number!

    Remaking Casablanca

    Clearly, I wasn't the only one that was gobsmacked by the clear re-make of Casablanca that Barb Wire was. Hmm, structure my sentences more backwards I should. /yoda mode off

    Preppy is not 1930's

    I always suspected that middle aged men got their pants tailored right, then let their gut push them down so that they rode way too low.

    Preppy is not 1930's

    My Resignation

    Rose tinted glasses aid 20/20 hindsight. It was never, nor will it ever be as good as your self edited memory makes it seem appear. I miss the innocence and carefree aspects of child hood, too, but I also remember how I chafed at the yoke of 'youth'. I couldn't wait to be 'older' and...

    Preppy is not 1930's

    it makes me think of what the eastern seaboard thinks the english countryside is like. Mostly it's just laziness. I think Matt's criticism is not so much with what is being worn, so much as the complete apathy of how it is worn. Blazer and pants, who cares how they are cut, how they fit...

    Blade Runner remastered

    Oh, yes. Eagerly awaited, 5 years late. He even re-shot scenes. The '92 director's cut was a slapdash affair, one of the first 'director's cuts', and it was a response to an unauthorized studio cut and the limited release of the workprint. The best thing about this box set is that it...

    Fountain Pen Illusions?

    I love fountain pens, but I carry a brushed aluminum short cross ballpoint. I love the styling- very aero and retro, and it clips right on my moleskine.

    v vendetta hat

    Topper, I missed your Britishness! Of course you clearly said NOT "fancy dress", which we call "costume" in America! Apologies. My post was exactly not what you wanted. Separated by a common language and all that. (And I pride myself on knowing a bit more British slang than the average Yank...

    Nothing vintage in our house, but my wife's is pretty keen- and mine is just about the OPPOSITE, everything is flat black, 'cause i roll like a ninja. Anyone got a lead on some cool baskets? My wife would love one...white wicker, preferrably, with a lid. I think she is still...
