    Best online streaming station

    I like to listen to WAVO 1150 AM in Charlotte when I'm working in the upstate, but I can't get it in the Columbia area. There are no good Big Band, Standards, or Swing stations in my area. What are your favorite online streaming radio stations?

    Waterproofing a coat

    I have a Carhartt that has served me well for the past 8 or 9 years. I was thinking about getting a Filson, but it occurred to me that the only thing I don't like about my Carhartt is that it is not waterproof. Has anyone ever successfully waterproofed a Carhartt coat? How did you do it...

    Can anyone identify this Stetson

    I really love this hat. I would like to buy the same hat in black, but I'd like to know which model it is. It is not vintage. I bought it about three years ago. It is sage green. The band is marked Royal Stetson. The crown is 4 1/8, and the brim is 2 1/4. Can anyone identify the model?

    Two Aero questions

    Looking at a used Aero jacket locally. Two questions: How tough is it to have the lining replaced? Is the cowhide version as long lasting as the horsehide version? I don't ride a motorcycle, so horsehide may not be needed for me. I've been looking at horsehide because I figured it...

    Ebay vendor?

    This may not be in the right section. Has anyone bought from Ultrafino Panama Hats off e-bay? He has one listed that I'm interested in right now, but would like some comments about the vendor before I plop down my cash.

    I need a new wallet

    Title sort of says it all... BUT, I'm looking for a black leather wallet that will last for a long time. I do not use tri-folds, money clips, or front pocket wallets. I use a standard bill fold wallet. I'm really tired of junk wallets like Fossil that fall apart after a year. Black is...

    Finances in the Golden Era and today

    For your consideration: http://graphics8.nytimes.com/packages/flash/business/DEBT_TRAP/media/interactives/timeline.swf It seems to me that the general populace has forgotten how to save, but is quick to borrow. As a person who has eschewed credit and is debt free other than my house...

    Advice on a quality writing instrument

    I'm interested in buying a quality writing instrument. I'd like something that I can use regularly. What advice would you offer to someone who knows nothing about good pens and wants to get something nicer than a Cross ball point. Where would you look in addition to e-bay?

    Dance lessons

    The wife unit and I are considering taking ballroom dance and shag lessons. We've wanted to take both for a while, and we thought it might be a way to get more exercise other than our daily 4 mile walks. We're still trying to shed some weight... I've been calling around town and the prices...

    Hat band problem for my 11 y/o nephew

    Yup, the title is right. Here is a picture of the hat band on my 11 year old nephew's fedora. The back story is that my father, my nephew and I all have the same brown fedora. We bought them together, and it was the first fedora for all of us. Here's a photo from the day we bought...

    Measuring the crown

    I look goofy with a very tall crown. That's life, I work with what I've got. I'm looking at several hats on the interwebs right now, and I'm not sure exactly how to measure the fedoras I have to see if the heights are similar. Where is the crown measured? At the highest point? At the very...
