    Help!!! I hate the "kiss hello"

    . Kissing anybody when greeting them is something that is absolutely not done where I live. With me, men always get an extended hand to shake. I will shake hands with a lady, but only if she offers her hand first.

    Ever Fancied A German secret police Overcoat ?

    . I can't imagine why. [/sarcasm] It's a nice looking coat, but that design will forever conjure images of the SS.

    Let's talk about...shoes, baby!

    . I would put Johnston & Murphy below Alden and Allen Edmonds, but above Stacy Adams. They look good, but don't hold up to wear.

    What the heck is this???

    . Moved at the request of the originator.

    GENEALOGY Experts

    . Census information is available, and much of it is online through various databases, such as Heritage Quest (available to me at home via my county library, which uses my library card number for authentication). If you're in NYC, the NYPL has access to Heritage Quest and a ton of other...

    Foods I can't find in my present location and regional specialties.

    . Interesting site, and also interesting the way you worded that. My parents recently moved to Arizona, and since they could not find Duke's in the grocery stores out there, I had to send them half a dozen jars. I must have told you that....didn't I?

    Congrats!

    We've been talking about it for months in the News forum below :) http://thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=8876 http://www.thefedoralounge.com/Media_kit_web.pdf Since this is only about the magazine, I'm moving it to the News forum, but leaving a redirect.

    How's Business?

    From the 2006 Occupational Outlook Handbook: At the library where I work, I was the first librarian to be hired from outside the organization since 1987, and within the next five years, there are going to be at least three, and probably four retirements among the nine librarians.

    Was Your Hometown Retro?

    . Downtown Marion, SC in the evening. Inside my barber's shop, where I get my hair cut. Opened in 1916, I think.

    What was your first job?

    . My first job was doing seasonal yardwork for lots of folks when I was about 14. At 16, I started a paper route (~370 papers to deliver daily), and did that till I was 18, when I took a job unloading boxes from trucks at FedEx.

    What a hat from Aaron's...

    . That is the best looking hat I've ever seen from a modern mass production manufacturer. Good work!

    PC vs Mac - Apple looks very attractive right now!!

    Currently, there isn't a good way to run a Windows-only program from within Apple's OSX. If you have a copy of Windows XP, you can dual boot it on the new Apple machines. This means that you'll have two operating systems on the computer, and you're given a choice when you start up as to which...

    PC vs Mac - Apple looks very attractive right now!!

    I'd recommend Windows in a server environment too, but Apple has made tremendous strides with their Server product. 10.4 Server running on an Xserve is a hot product, and one that I highly recommend for SQL, web hosting, and even running DNS or Active Directory duties. I got one at my old job...

    PC vs Mac - Apple looks very attractive right now!!

    In this case, the "is equal to" sign should be interpreted as "approximates" or "relates to." I suppose we're talking apples and oranges in some of these cases. Microsoft Windows XPpro = OS X Tiger Excel = I use Excel for Mac. Works great. Word = Again, I use Word for Mac. Outlook =...

    PC vs Mac - Apple looks very attractive right now!!

    That's me, but I still use a PC from time to time. The main thing I miss is the lack of support for the 3d shoot-em-up games I like to play. That's why I still use a PC for them. That's the only reason I use a PC at home. As soon as I'm done playing, I switch back over to the Mac. Somewhat. In...

    A teeny thing 'counter-vintage' about you?

    I play squad-based shoot-em-up computer games.

    Andy Garcia's Panama in The Lost World Cuban movie (?)

    . I know that Andy Garcia has bought several straw hats from Optimo. I've been on the phone with Graham when he came in before, but I can't say whether that's one of Graham's.
