    My Latest Score!

    Tucson is a strange place. People move here and get rid of all their winter clothing because we only have two weeks of cold. So every october the thrift stores will put out jackets en masse. If you get there at the right time you can get some great stuff even if things aren't as cheap as they...

    Aquascutum

    agree on the quality of aquascutum. I have two, one is the traditional trench; the other is a long raincoat that can be zipped up into one of its internal pockets. I have had a few burberry's and the reason I always sell them is because I always reach for the aquascutum.

    Freddy Fender Dies

    This made me sad. He also played with some other TX greats including Doug Sahm (RIP) in the Texas Tornadoes. Worth checking out. Wasted Days might be the best country song ever recorded.

    Awesome deal, I'll give you $100 for it. I have been thinking about pulling the trigger on one of these but am concerned about their sizing. I had a vintage Filson cruiser jacket--made of the whipcord cloth--that was marked 38 but fit like a 42-44. I realize that they are this way for...

    Faith; visualization of, and belief in attainment of desire

    My point is just that it is extremely unlikely that you, I or anybody else will suddenly grow rich by developing "Positive Mental Attitudes" and following the advice of some self-appointed expert. Further, read a couple pages of Hill and tell me that this stuff isn't silly nonsense that...

    Faith; visualization of, and belief in attainment of desire

    My profanest apologies. Perhaps when you and Lincsong have "thought" and "grown rich" you can give me my just deserts by hiring me to perfom some menial task like replacing the urinal cakes in the lounge bathroom. Personally, I am quite angered by bunkum artists like Dale Carnegie and...

    Faith; visualization of, and belief in attainment of desire

    Think and grow rich. considering that most of Lincsong's nonsense is taken word for word from this page: http://www.psitek.net/pages/PsiTekTAGR7.html I'd say that he is in the thrall of Napolean Hill's "Think and Grow Rich."

    Do you use a vintage camera?

    Rolleiflex 3.5f and an old Hasselblad 500cm. I also have leica IIIc and a Contax IIb and a Rollei 35s. Got both rolleis at thrift stores. The rolleiflex is the nicest camera and the most fun to shoot. With the hasselblad I feel like I am always looking for someplace to put the back down or...

    B-15 jacket ID?

    I think it's a real B-15 and the underarm tabs might be mods or else it is a real B-15a and the leather triangle tabs were removed. If that is one of the surplus store specials, it is the nicest quality one ever. If the pen pocket and triangle tabs were removed fifty some years ago, it would...

    Levi Denim Quality by Country of Manufacture?

    radman, please say what models of Levis are you talking about, because they use different denims or different models. Are you looking at two pairs of the same model or are you comparing between different models or different washes?

    Need Dating Help...

    Thanks, I kinda suspected Hong Kong based on the extra buttons, but was surprised that there wasn't the enormous shiny Tailor's label that every hong kong suit seems to have. Also, the tag on the pants makes me question whether it is custom at all.

    Need Dating Help...

    Just kidding, mother won't actually let me date girls just yet, but I was wondering if anybody had any idea what the deal is with this suit. I picked it up at the Salvation Army and am a bit baffled by it. It is a three button worsted wool suit in navy blue. It has three buttons on the...

    Gusset Jeans?

    It's possible that it varies by model/item or that I got some older stock, but I purchased at least one pair of made in USA wranglers in the past year.
