    Today in History

    We Scots-Irish tend to have long memories, especially of wrongs inflicted on us. I lost family (before my time, of course) in WWII, and right or wrong I refuse to ever own a Japanese or German vehicle.

    Today in History

    09-11-2001. Never forget those we lost that day and the people that carried this off. Never forget how united we were in the days following, and hope that one day we will be again.

    Nice job on that hat, Randall! I really like the detailing (stitching and ribbon). Randy, it looks great on you, congratulations!

    Akubra Campdraft

    I own a handful of different Akubras and the felt can be different from one to the other. Some of them are fairly stiff, so take this for what it's worth: If your felt feels stiff at all, take the time to either steam it or dampen it with a misting spray and let it soak in before you manipulate...

    OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    My experience with DHL has been that they are consistently the slowest and least reliable carrier, which is saying something with the horrible service USPS currently provides. I expect you will get your hat, but there’s no way to tell when. Good luck to you!

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    I remember that stuff! Almost seemed a little comical to me, but if you've got to print something on the paper may as well make it decorative and useful. Sort of like the feed and flour sacks with gingham and "flowerdy" prints on them so it could be used for dresses and curtains.

    Can leather cream polish fix these kinds of scratches in a leather wallet?

    I agree with the advice above - it will probably get more scratches - but I do understand the desire to keep nice things nice! Those scratches look pretty superficial and a navy shoe polish would take care of those in regular leather. I have no experience with shell cordovan, and maybe it...

    USPS Ground Advantage Gripes

    Yeah, that package did a jig or two. And it was Priority… I live west of Roanoke near Floyd. I just retired from a public service career in Roanoke County. I enjoyed it very much, but do not miss the long repetitive drive. Folks often asked why I didn’t just move closer, but I’m very happy...

    USPS Ground Advantage Gripes

    I feel your pain. USPS parcel service has gotten to be horrible. It's almost a 50/50 bet that a parcel headed my way will be misrouted in delivery, and usually if it happens once it then hits multiple off-route centers before it gets to me. That used to happen only once in a blue moon. I'm...
