Technically not vermouth, but I like to use Lillet blanc in my martinis instead of vermouth.- docneg

"Detectives Guide to Wearing Fedoras on the Case"
I felt like someone dripped some cold water down the back of my collar when I read this. I snapped straight up and read your post again and just had to respond. I also started work as a private investigator at the tender age of 19 (although this was in the early '70s) and likewise had to... -

DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects
Last year a friend introduced me to a woman who is a descendant of Mike Fink! For those of you who remember Davy Crockett's Keelboat Race, Fink is the one Davy challenged and beat. I amazed her by reciting: "Ladies hide And brave men shiver I'm Mike Fink King of the River!" Just more...- docneg

(Re)Book-em Danno
I loved Hawaii Five-O, and I met Keigh Deigh (Wo Fat), who advised me as to where to go to school when I was waffling about that! So I actually owe my career to Hawaii Five-O, to a certain extent.- docneg

Film Noir?
Cursed by noir? Does anyone else feel they have been adversely affected by film noir? I developed an affinity for these movies as a kid and have watched far more than any other genre over the course of my life. In recent years I've wondered if I gravitate toward them because I relate to the...- docneg

The nicest comment I ever heard
Hey, I got a "nice hat" comment, too. He called out just as I was exiting my car today. The (unhatted) guy looked like he might have been a lawyer. I thanked him and then hurried into the closest building...just in case he was trying to serve me with a summons. One never knows... -

Hats In The Car/A Newbie Question
At 5'7", I don't have as much trouble in my PT Cruiser in the vertical plane as you do. Even though I'm more comfortable not wearing a hat in the car, people seem to accept the fedora more easily if you're in that car, so I wear it more often now. Anyway, I find that even without the hat, I'm...
