    Summer and Sunday best?

    I would like to second that the humidity is horrid here (I'm only 30 miles from Yeps) and I couldn't imagine having to wear a suit on our hotter days, even a tshirt and shorts seem too much. Although, I work outside, so someone in an office may be different...

    The Miracle of Absinthe

    I bought a bottle of Absinthe to share at New years...only one person liked it, and it wasn't me. It was like drinking black liquorice. It was Absinte brand, by the way.

    How do you drink your whiskey?

    When I do drink, which is rarely these days, it tends to be Teacher's scotch. No ice, room temperature. Most alcohol doesn't sit well with my stomach, but Teacher's doesn't seem to bother me.

    Blue collar class.

    Goodwill buys

    Went to salvation army today, picked up a wool suit for me from beecroft & bull which I believe is from the 60s, a disco suit from Johnny Carson (It was $10, good for halloween I suppose :) ) and my brother in law got a wool suit as well. All were 3 piece, and all together, it came to $36

    Trying to find a collar like this:

    I really like the style of this collar, even though it is from about WWI, not WWII. I was wondering if anyone could help me find an identical one.

    Typewriters

    I have three typewriters myself: A 1920's remington portable, a 1940s-1950s Royal portable, and a 1930s-1950s Royal Desk model. Of the three, the Remington is my favorite. My grandfather gave me the Royals years ago, and I won the Remington at an auction for $1 about five years ago. I do need...
