    Gentlemen's Clubs

    Okay, so maybe bitter was the wrong word. Just to be clear, I wasn't attacking you personally. I was directing my thoughts in a more general direction. I just get tired of some folks feeling they are entitled to everything and deserve it even if it really isn't meant for them. I certainly don't...

    Gentlemen's Clubs

    I really don't see any problem with the types of clubs Chamorro is so bitter about. I don't see anything wrong with anyone forming clubs that keep those not on the "worthy" members list out. Everyone has their right to socialize with whomever they want. Even if it is racist and elitist. Only...

    Optimo Treatment to my Brown Borsalino

    Fisk, In a word, yes. Last Christmas I received a Federation Deluxe from my wife. Not content with the crown shape I sent it to Optimo for a re-block with instructions to keep the original lining, sweat band and ribbon. What I received back was a Fed-dlx with all the stock accessories but...

    A question for you guys in rain country....

    Akubra Federation Imperial quality felt. This is my trail/knock-around hat and has been in all kinds of weather conditions including, but not limited to, multiple down pours, sleet and snow. Sprayed with water repellant when it was new. The rain used to bead up on it but now it soaks in on...

    Composer Michael Kamen passes away

    I didn't even know Mr. Kamen had his own message board until today. I came across this short thread that includes a post written by Mr. Kamen the day before his death. Michael Kamen's last post I will also include Mr. Kamen's IMDB page.

    A fast food rant

    Yes, it is a good point. But with todays anti-discrimination laws being abused it would be the manager who gets fired for turning away a possible hire for reasons like not speaking the language of the land or having piercings all over their face or dressing like a gang member or ...

    Composer Michael Kamen passes away

    Please forgive me, but I just learned of this sad news today. I collect and listen to, pretty much exclusively, orchestral film scores and this news of composer Michael Kamen passing away at only 55 on Tuesday is a huge shock. I own many of his scores on CD. I just watched one of my favorite...

    A fast food rant

    Another sappy post about my love for the USA. I love America. Love it. This great Nation of ours is absolutely fantastic. I am so privilaged to have been born in the United States and one tiny, yet significant, portion of that privilage includes places like grocery stores and fast-food joints...

    A diplomatic request

    All right, who's the Berkley college drop out who went on to suffer serious brain damage after being struck in the head by a tear gas canister at the WTO riots that has hi-jacked Fedora's account?

    TRACER BULLET...Private Eye

    Bill Watterson is an amazing, amazing writer and illustrator. His story telling cababilities are absolute perfection. C&H is by far the best strip ever created. 'nuff said.

    The demise of VHS

    Very good. I knew that to be the case but I'm having one of those days and just needed it spelled out for me. Thanks.

    Patterson

    You're being a bit too humble yourself, Patterson. I love my FS Expedition. Yes, I'm using the word love here. I have never owned a better jacket. It's my second skin.

    The demise of VHS

    Hold on a second. Define, "storing tapes flat," please. Just for clarification. I'm defining it as laying a tape down horizontally with the cover facing up. However, after reading Michaelson's post about tape sagging it sounds like he is seeing it as standing them on end. I'm sure the answer is...

    A sad note

    Rest assured you are not. Your original post is exactly how I feel about the whole issue. Temptation and all. The devil is constantly whispering in our ears little choices and ideas here and there that if chosen will lead us away from our heavenly father. It's an ongoing war and, make no...

    Patterson

    Jeez, I still see this happening today just as Rundquist said. Amazing. Also, Michaelson, your part in the creation of both the Expedition jacket and the Federation hat line has not been forgotten. I, for one, am very thankful because I own and enjoy both these products on a daily basis...

    Patterson

    Yes, this is Indy gear related...sorry... So I'm tromping around the IndyFan vault looking for something else all together when I come across this: He then goes into all the little details he found that differed from his modern day (circa August 2000) Wested. I had not read this...
