    Vintage Shorts

    At age fifty-six I still wear them occasionally to run to the store and on selected other occasions. I have short, dumpy legs so I've never looked good in them. I'm not a sun worshipper and no longer have a yard to attend to so I don't get outside as much as I used to, which leaves my legs...

    Write Your Own Epitaph! Otherwise, Someone Less Able Might Beat You To It.

    Autumnal Thoughts........

    I've been working really hard to get ready. I've been walking every day for the last month. I'm doing three miles in forty-five minutes. In a couple more weeks I should be up to four miles in an hour. Once I'm comfortable doing that I'm going to start walking with my pack. I'll have about five...

    Happy Drunk/Mean Drunk

    Amen. I tended bar part-time in a little neighborhood pub for six years. I wouldn't take a million dollars for the experience or take a million dollars to do it again.

    Autumnal Thoughts........

    I'm really looking forward to fall. I'm going on my first ever backpacking trip in the Hoosier National Forest in southern Indiana the third week of October. The fall colors should be in their prime.

    You haven't missed a thing. I swore off of them many years ago.

    We could use a chat room on this forum, what do ya say????

    I've participated in a lot of different internet boards on a variety of topics in the last fifteen or so years. I also moderate a forum that went online the same year as the FL. We have about 1500 members. We've been successful for the very same reasons that scotrace mentioned above. We moderate...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Doggone. That is one fine looking hat. Out of all of the hats I've seen in the almost two months I've been on the forum, that might qualify as the perfect casual hat. I tend to like the thinner ribbons for casual wear. One thing I will say is that you're a great judge of hats. Most of your hats...

    Past the Golden Age: 1960-70

    Here is a link to someone's best movies of the 1960's. I've seen every one of them and would recommend all of them. Some of them have already been listed earlier. http://aslan369.tripod.com/Movie/60s/Best60.html A few personal favorites that I'd recommend are The Dirty Dozen (if you like...

    What are you listening to?

    Speaking of the Rat Pack. This is my favorite Dean Martin song and this is a great live version of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MWN_duZfIs

    I probably missed it and no problem at all. By the way, there's a lot of good folks up that way. I've always enjoy my visits there.

    Dialects/Accents in the Movies

    Huh? Good grief! I said she overdid it by a wide margin. Just for the record, I've been to Minnesota probably thirty times in my life and the folks up there all have a very distinct accent. I live in the Midwest and I know I have an accent. I'm not offended when someone tells me, but your...

    Dialects/Accents in the Movies

    You'd certainly know better than I. I didn't mean to offend anyone and I'm a huge Sean Connery fan. I'll amend that to say that it didn't sound like the Irish accent that I'm most familiar with. And no, I don't think the red wig would have worked for Jimmy Malone.

    Dialects/Accents in the Movies

    Minnesotans do have a distinct accent, but I thought Frances McDormand overdid it by a wide margin. I loved the movie though. I've also heard a lot of really bad southern accents in various movies over the years. Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump comes to mind. I also thought Sean Connery's Irish accent...
