    Wow...100% Although...I did just take a swinging guess at the Studebaker, though.

    The Fedora Lounge Theme Song

    No Captain, it's not just you. :D As for me...I think another vote for Begin the Beguine.

    before automatic transmissions

    Just for reference sake...I have a 1977 Chevy pickup, that has "three on the tree". After that...I cannot say for certain. I actually got into an argument once, with a kid that was convinced that the truck was an automatic, just because the shifter was on the steering column. He couldn't...

    Boy recalls past life as a fighter pilot

    Perhaps. But...in an effort to get to point "B", from point "A", we tend to "add" stepping stones when there are to few to get to where we want to go. Meaning, some evidence seems to point to an explaination. In order to fill the gaps, we tend to make things fit, where they they might...

    Finally got to see The Maltese Falcon...

    Ok...you had me going there. For about 3 seconds. :D The Maltese Falcon is a "must have" for any classic film collection. Second only to Cassablanca.

    The modern work ethic . . .

    Back in the late seventies, I worked at McDonalds. Back in the old paper hat days. Sure, it sucked...a lot. But we took a measure of pride, even in that work. Our store was always extremely busy, being the only fast food joint within 30 miles, either direction, off of the Pennsylvania Turnpike...

Thank you guys, for some very enlightening, and educational, reads. Now, I get the feeling that there is an afinity toward...

    was the A2 leather jacket ever worn by tank crewmen?

    Point is...he was happy. And somehow, I think, it meant more to him than an original A-2 ever would.

    World War II Airman Found Frozen in Glacier

    I, also, am the product of one of those "mixed" marriages. My mother's (Florida) grandfather would not allow my father (Pennsylvania) into his house, saying; "Ain't no damned Yankee ever gonna step foot in my house." He recanted after I was born, 43 years ago. I was the first "Yankee" to enter...
