    Hair cuts

    I've used it for a few years, and have received both positive and negative comments regarding what had been called an "odor" and an "aroma" at different times. My wife doesn't care for its scent, but it works all day regardless of the heat or humidity. It also maintains a neat appearance after...

    Hats in restaurants

    While I do agree that this is true, I disagree that it should then be acceptable to behave a certain way or do something that others find offensive because you do not agree that it is rude or offensive. This sort of thing does not anger me, but I do not agree with his choice. I choose to...

    Hats in restaurants

    I always seek the extra chair when possible. My hat usually ends up on my knee. I carry a comb to avoid hat hair. It is my personal belief that having hat hair is considerably less embarrassing than being seen with a hat at the table, let alone that I am indoors. There's no reason to wear a...

    Poll: Dean Martin or Bing Crosby?

    Bing for me. I really enjoy listening to the variety of songs he sang and other performers he recorded with. Factually speaking, there's no doubt that he had a tremendous impact on music and most popular singers that followed him until the late '60s. His 50 year career is unparalleled...

    To Feather or Not to Feather?

    department stores...

    I will begin by saying that I am about to go way :offtopic:. The railroad used to deliver everything as far as the station or supply. There would usually be at least one freight house in every town. If there was a flagstop station, there was a freight house. All your smaller items would end...

    department stores...

    Everyone I see has at least one person per two stations. I think they are nonsense. They've been around 10 years and people still cannot figure out how to use it quickly. Reading what to do and when, executing the instructions and paying will always be slower than when you have a clerk to...

    Barbershops - do you tip the owner

    What a ringing endorsement! lol

    Edumication

    I agree that persistence and determination are the driving factors (by nature of their definitions) in all endeavors. Education can only be attained through the above, and it will only assist one in achieving more easily. It is the sharing of the discoveries and achievements of those that are...

    Barbershops - do you tip the owner

    My barber has always received a tip with gratitude. I've never noticed the slightest indication of offense.

    Hat style advice.

    If I may suggest staying between 2.75" and 2.375" on the brim width. Try to keep at least a 4" center-dent crown. Being as tall as you are, a 3" brim will start to reduce your appearance; meaning that it will make you look thinner. If you wear a hat with a stingy brim, you will appear even...

    What do you do for Living?

    Truthfully, I work in the dynamic and exciting world of process/design and development/manufacturing/industrial/plant/safety/maintenance engineering. We must wear many hats in today's extremely lean manufacturing industry. It's quite nice to now be experienced in such a diverse range of...

    Military style cap?

    Is this what you're looking for ? http://www.elsercho.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/rob.jpglol Seriously, it can be difficult to find a non-military/police crusher that is not a "biker" cap.

    Want a clean hat?

    Humans can come into regular contact with PG. Reports of toxic reactions in humans are low except for a few studies where the quantities consumed were absurd. You would need to drink gallons of PG before it reaches a toxic level. Moreover, there would be other health concerns relating to...

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    That isn't remotely similar to a cowboy... I don't know how people can over simplify appearances. A brimmed hat and jeans does not equate to a cowboy.

    Buying a suit

    No offense taken. I recall that there are quite a few over priced, I suppose we can refer to them as suits, garments in department stores, but I do believe that is a good place for someone to start. Once again, this is my opinion. Many people believe that the thrift store is the place to...

    Buying a suit

    Sir, I never would suggest poly-blend!;) It can be difficult, at times, to acquire a suit from a thrift store. This is the only reason that I would not recommend it to someone that has not yet owned a suit.
