    Making a New Hat

    Indeed! :p We live in Idaho- one of the states known as "community property" - so we both do! :eek: :eek: :eek: Uhhhh- not the same ones. shakeshead Seriously, I do hope we can make it over there this summer- but best clear it with Art first! ;)

    Making a New Hat

    Sure- but . . . Chinaski Indeed, I'd love to go over to Oregon to visit Vintage Silhouettes and watch him build my next one. But, given current uncertainties, I doubt the spouse would approve since I already have one coming from Steve Delk. :cheers1:

    AUCTION #114: Lee - Adventure - Size 7 3/8 - C0000228969 - SOLD

    Grrr. . . indeed!! But that also depends on how you are comparing. I think novelty alone would preclude comparison to Akubra at $200.00. (And I do like wabbit :eusa_clap - just like beaver felt better! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap I have several Akubras which do fine at what I bought them for.) My...

    Lawman. . . Now that's a raise!!! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap (Nice hat! Wish I didn't have that LO in my hat size). [huh]

    Some bad news (now getting better!)

    Best of luck, Art!! Art- Lots of love and affection is pretty helpful too!! I've never been a smoker but I did get addicted to pain meds following an accident a few years back so I have the greatest respect for anyone who struggles with that!! Most importantly, Art, we are all rooting...

    Slow downs

    Jimmy- hang in there!! Jimmy- I haven't purchased a hat from you yet but I admire what you are doing. Do hang in there, I'm sure the good folk of the lounge will be patient!! I wish I lived close enough to lend a hand. Perhaps some of the Loungers in the area could find time to help. (Or...

    Show us your Vintage Rucksacks!

    Yeah. Painful ones!! It does and my back hurts just thinking about it (another time I'll stick with a modern pack). But someone mentioned the salt-and-pepper Swiss rucksack. A google search turned up: http://west.loadup.com/military/surplus/1600.html Larger size was in stock-...

    Bicycle Helmet?!

    Yeah! What he said- because we love ya!! Very concise and wisely put (been there, done that). True story- I would add that while working at a bicycle shop we gave helmets with purchase of a bicycle. One woman refused saying she wanted to be healthy. She didn't want that "piece of crap...

    Bicycle Helmet?!

    Huh? Depends on how you define, "In this day and age". The rules at the time that picture was taken were that helmets were to be worn except during the last 5K of a mountain top finish (because you would be going slower). But as the picture showed you still fall pretty hard. The fact is that...

    Average age of us hat wearers

    Hey- wait a mo!! 5- but methinks lumping all us old geezers together is a bit of a young persons mistake!! (Or did I say that because I'm not far over the line?!?!?) There should certainly be 6 and 7 not because it bothers me that I'm 53 (seriously, it doesn't). But because I think anyone who...

    What happened to TCM?

    Hey, that's a very well argued point!! :eusa_clap I tell my film classes the same thing all the time. It is all well and good to "analyze the film content" or plot or script etc. But when we sit down we do tend to judge the film/movie based on whether we connect, are entertained, or are...

    Chocolate and . . . . whisky!

    Tis a fact. We already have the requisite materials for fermentation in a healthy colon/intestines. That is why the ability to process alcohol exists - because we do it already. If you add lots of sugars and alcohol you do, in fact, increase intestinal fermentation AND augment your alcohol...

    Auction #47: Royal Stetson - "The Avenue" - Size 7 3/8 - C0000228879 SOLD

    Me also! Duggap- Couldn't agree more!! Great hat, Jimmy the Lid!! Do post pics as I bet it looks better "on person". ;) I was tempted by this one as well but I've another by Art coming soon and am seriously wanting another and another . . .!! :D (wife's response was :eek: )

    so disappointed...

    Ummm. No. Not really. Vintage Raven- well not really. But the assumption that they used to is, I'm afraid, really pretty much that you were a good chooser of friends!! :D I.e., your circle of friends is probably better read than the average bloke or Shelia (homage to our Aussie friends!!)...
