    Just Arrived: Akubra Squatter in Willow Green

    All - Haven't forgotten about the further pics. Just been busy with the holidays. I shall have some up shortly.

    Lets see your Balloon Tire Bikes

    I'm still on my beloved, classic European city bike-inspired Breezer Uptown on the right, and now Stephanie has gotten herself a bike - a Haro Maude cruiser, shown on the left, customized with a front basket, bell, bottle holder, front brake, and LED head & tail lights. Now we can ride together...

    Just Arrived: Akubra Squatter in Willow Green

    Having reblocked and reshaped my Squatter and worn it more, I must say that it is a fabulous hat. I also can't agree now with the statement that the Imperial quality DM Squatter is "better" than my Superfine quality - the two felts are different, and for different purposes, but I wouldn't say...

    Just Arrived: Akubra Squatter in Willow Green

    Just FYI - the grey Federation is Carbon Grey. Moonstone is indeed a much, much lighter color. Carbon Grey is very dark. (As an aside, I have never come across another Federation as soft as that Carbon Grey one of mine. My Mid Brown was like a pith helmet at first but it's softened up a lot...

    The ribbon is green as well, though not precisely the same color as the felt. It's actually a pretty nice effect, especially when combined with the edge binding.

    Just Arrived: Akubra Squatter in Willow Green

    I'm considering keeping it the way it is. My significant other said she thought it looked cool, so that's another pretty good endorsement. :) I'll work on it tonight and see what I think. It's pretty soft, so I don't expect much trouble in the shaping department.

    Just Arrived: Akubra Squatter in Willow Green

    I'll get a daylight photo tomorrow, when the sun is up again. :) There's nothing especially *wrong* with the porkpie crease. Just not sure if that's my thing. I need to get the brim like I want it before I make a judgement, though. The brim's a full 3 inches, I believe, which is bigger...

    Just Arrived: Akubra Squatter in Willow Green

    These are fresh out-of-the-box photos - I haven't touched the shape or anything else, mainly because I'm still thinking about what I want to do. Thought I'd share some shots. Disappointed by the news that the Bluegrass Green Campdraft is no more, Hats Direct pointed me towards the Squatter in...

    You are very kind - thanks!

    Motion Pictures that should NEVER be remade?

    There should never be a remake of "Forbidden Planet" - I could see no way to improve on the greatness of the original. Naturally, though, there is already a (sort of) remake in the works.

    What are you wearing today??

    As do I. That's a great tie.

    What are you wearing today??

    Outstanding frugality, sir. You should be proud - if I could find things that looked so good for such little outlay of cash, I'd be thrilled.

    What are you wearing today??

    As usual, looking sharp, Dinerman. I am constantly envious of your complete together-ness with respect to attire.

    What are you wearing today??

    Great as usual, Darhling. You always look so classy and well put-together.

    I still quite like my B!Wears. Here's the brown herringbone one I've started wearing a lot as the weather encoldens:

    New Star Trek

    I am also very, very excited. Obviously, it's different, but it's just feeling like the *spirit* of TOS is strong in the new film. I actually quite like the new Enterprise design - it has an undeniably modern yet quasi Jet Age swoopy sensibility that I love. And it looks and feels like a real...

    Will Eisner's THE SPIRIT

    As the cherry atop the cake of terrible, I wonder if the Spirit will get to utter a variant of Miller's Batman's, um, infamous dialogue? :D

    Will Eisner's THE SPIRIT

    I recall a clip from Miller's "Spirit" movie made it online at some point. It featured the Spirit and Samuel L. Jackson's Octopus fighting in raw sewage, and it had (I swear) cartoony "boink" sound effects. At one point, the Octopus clobbers the Spirit with an old toilet that's laying around...

    Victoria Beckham, has gone all 1940s on us

    I'll second this - Geri Halliwell was always my favorite of the group (I wasn't a "fan" of them but you couldn't help but notice them everywhere in their uber-popular days). She had the looks of a pin-up girl and she actually seemed to be having fun with the whole thing.
