    Retro-extremists? What are we called?

    Atavist like Atavist. To me, an Anachronist is someone who you find at the Renaissance Fair.

    My problems with suits

    Thanks Thanks MrGrey for the pep talk! I'm beginning to do a lot more walking now that it's warming up a bit (for Minnesota). I've also read that you can control most of the weight by what you eat. So, I've just decided to eat much slower and begin to really think about chewing and enjoying my...

    My problems with suits

    I got the OK to exercise last week. I'm slowly getting back into it. My wife is working out with me as motivation to keep it up! I really am very surprised at how easily I put on weight. I guess at 40 my metabolism really slowed. :(

    Hat comparison Help

    Thanks for the advice AlterEgo. I paid $102.50 AUS for it, plus $37.60 AUS for shipping. No clue how much that is in USD, but it's all good. I'll post in new hats when it arrives. I talked to some really nice people at Hats Direct regarding my head size and my oval shape to get their...

    Pocket Watch Question

    Thats my chain Yep, that's my chain. Except my chain is silver. I may end up placing two chains together too. Hmmmm. I plan on purchasing a few cardigans with pockets (once I'm working again) and getting a few pocket watch pockets sewed into my various pairs of khakis. I also like...

    Another reason to wear a hat.

    Rats!!!!! Well, I just got my biopsy back from my dermatologist. I have one Basal Cell Carcinoma on my head and one Squamous Cell Carcinoma on my right cheek. I've already had two Basal Cell Carcinomas removed from my scalp. Man, this is quite unfortunate. Monday I'm going to place...

    Pocket Watch Question

    Good Idea Thanks for the good ideas fellas. I think, at least while it's cold, I'm going to try the jacket and the shirt pocket method. I may also look for some cardigan sweaters with pockets to wear while it's still chilly outside.

    Pocket Watch Question

    Hmmmm That might work with a vest. I did see something online about "wallet chains." Some of them look fairly long, but I've never seen one in person. So, I'm not sure how it would attach to my pocket watch.

    Pocket Watch Question

    Ok, I have a pocket watch that my wife gave me in 2006. However, the chain is only 13 and 3/4 inches long. This works fine when I'm wearing jeans with a pocket for my pocket watch. However, I have some Khakis that don't have the pocket watch pocket, so I find the watch hard to wear (If I...

    Back in the States Well, I made it back to the states! I've been home for about fourteen days and I finally had time to drive up to Heimies Haberdashery in St. Paul today. I looked at a few of their hats. They did not have the Stetson Margate in stock, but they did have a Stetson...

    Highbrow---to---Lowbrow.

    OMG OMG, I really am low-brow. Go figure... Really, I thought I was more cultured than that. :offtopic: However, upon reflection, most of my relatives do still use their knuckles to keep their balance. Always room for improvement I guess.
