    Electro-Swing or: How I Learned to Stop Complaining and Love Modernity

    I hope you forgive me if I do not share your enthusiasm. This has all to do with Electro, and nothing with Swing. This swings: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_ccsfk9yZ4 Why don't you try to find the sources of the samples. You might like them better. I know I do.

    Removing the "fuzziness" from a new Stetson Nostalgia?

    I saw a movie recently here on the lounge of a hat maker that spayed some solvend on a hat and set it on fire to remove excess fibers. I wouldn't recommend this though.

    Electronic cigarettes

    Either you smoke (and suffer the consequences) or you don't. This is like fat free ice cream: ridiculous.

    Getting my first suit tomorrow...

    Color: NO black!!! Height: make sure the suit is in the right proportion. The jacket should not be to long. But don't try to make yourself look smaller, tall is beautifull. Weight: a good tailored suit wil make you look thinner. Small mistake: too tight. BIG mistake: oversized. Insist on a suit...

    Post New Hats Here!

    I just cruised e-bay a little, and 25-60 dollars is about right. But that is ultimately not important: I am glad I saved it from oblivion. It looks gorgeous now and in my mind it is worth 200 easily. Thanx for the info!

    Lost movie clip.

    Last year I attended a themed swing dance party. The theme was 'the sea', and there were the obvious sailors (me) and pirates. But a group of Swiss people showed up in red and white striped swimsuits and black acorn hats. I remember they referred to an old commercial or movie from a film company...

    Cigar Question

    It is usually the cigarette smokers that have trouble with cigar smoking. They are used to and accustomed to inhaling. Just try not to. Here are some more tips: do not light up with a zippo, match or a candle, unless you like the taste of gasoline, sulphur or parafine. Snobs prefer a stick...

    It's 1900 and I'm alive and living in Downtown LA or San Francisco?

    If you go to http://www.shorpy.com you can find lots of visual reference. Like: http://www.shorpy.com/node/10038?size=_original. What I saw was predominantly shirts and 3 piece suits. Occasion and weather determined quality and how much was on: jacket off, waistcoat off (on the beach or at...

    Shorpy All Stars

    I think this is an interesting hatshot. It looks like the brim edge is folded or creased upward. Or is this an optical illusion? http://www.shorpy.com/node/2206?size=_original
