    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Enjoying the sun today but as it is still a tad cool and breezy I've got the ol' Cooper on for warmth.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Karstadt? Nope, I like the Galeria Kaufhof better............. But a nice jacket for sure.

    I didn't come up with dystopian for these schemes, something I read somewhere. However, I agree with that term with regards to these vast social housing projects. And yes, I lived in a similar environment as a kid when we, as a military family, lived on the economy of our host nation. I do...

    Well, you are the Fedora Lounge König of the type III denim jacket. :)

    Favorite Historic Buildings or Places

    I have always had a certain fondness for the Art Deco period (even though I'm really more of an Arts & Crafts guy). Thus I like looking at, say, the Chrysler building just as much as looking at period National Socialist or Soviet buildings. Dystopian future for the Workers: Karl Marx Hof...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I don't mind liver but I always pass on the onions. Something I haven't eaten in decades is cow's brains. I liked the stuff when I lived in Germany but it isn't something I've tried since I was a kid. I recall the brain was very soft (d'uh) and melt - in - the - mouth, very nice with melted...

    Er, I love spinach. It was onions with me, hated them as a kid and still hate them now. I with you guys on the bread, though. I also am happy just eating freshly made bread (not the white stuff you buy at the store though but the European sourdough type that the Germans, Poles and Jewish folk...

    I wish he was, but he's only a short fellow - about 22cm / 8" tall! A vintage souvenir from Rome.

    You know you are getting old when:

    A selection of silver Half Dollars and Dollars.

    You know you are getting old when:

    While it is true that the term Dollar / half dollar was revived during WWII for the Crown / Half Crown the term Dollar for a Crown actually came from the early 19th Century because the Crown at that time was similar looking to the Spanish Dollar (Peso or piece of eight).

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Yes, I got your point. Had they lived and continued musically up to now I guess they would be sad relics of a bygone era, much like the Rolling Stones are now, or Bon Jovi or any other example you'd care to mention. The only person who continued with any credit was David Bowie, but then he...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Guess you're referring to Elvis in your last sentence. However, I'd wager a bet that more people still listen to Elvis Presley past their 20s and 30s than still listen to the Doors or Hendrix nowadays. Morrison, Hendrix, Jones, Joplin, hell, even Sid Vicious are kind of stuck in their eras while...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I sometimes wonder what is so important that folk are continuously on their cell phones. People walking down the street, heads down as they tap away on their phones, folk waiting in lines at the grocery store or the bank, tap tap tapping away. Even when driving their POVs, you'll see some on...

    Have you found Hidden Treasure?

    One ebay jacket I bought had a 1980s quarter in one of the pockets. Another ebay purchase, a US army jacket, had some kind of front sight post, painted OD, in one of the pockets. I tried to ID it but no luck as to whether it was from a weapon system or from some kind of military instrument.
