"Affordable" Indian Chief Motorcycle
Put one of the repro Vincent engines in there in place of that gutless flathead and you'd have something. Not to mention an electric leg for the end of the day when the ol' right leg is a mite rubbery...Here's a link to the repro Vincent...- plain old dave

WWII Crusher and Garrison Caps
At the extreme right. Garrison caps are all Naval Aviators (and most officers and Chiefs) wear, given a choice. Less maintainence and space taken up.- plain old dave

What Do You Sound Like?
Midland (predominantly South). I don't think I'd do well on the TV or radio, though.... I don't think it's too highly thought of for announcers to say "how y'uns doin'?"...- plain old dave

Wearing a wrist watch on the underside of your wrist
I have always understoof the reason Reagan wore his that way is he got into the habit when he was a radio announcer..... Makes sense, you can glance down and see the time for commercial spots adn station ID.- plain old dave

If you could have any hat
Same answer. Stetson Open Road (or lookalike), cattleman bash, slate gray. Country enough to look good away from town, cosmopolitan enough to not look like a rodeo reject in town. The OR might be called The Nashville Sound of western hats....- plain old dave

Best Duke era?
For this puropse, we'll call "early" John Wayne's debut up to about 1940, Middle/WW2 would be 1940-@1965 or so (the time of his lung operation) and Late would be 1965-1976. Waddayathink? Which era Duke is the best Duke> B-westerns and Stagecoach? She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, Big Jim McClain and...- plain old dave

Tinnitus "Fixes" ?
Word to the un-afflicted: If it's loud, you need ear plugs. For the rest, I don't know of anything that will help un-do a mis-spent youth of highpowered rifles and pistols with no hearing protection.- plain old dave

"Doctor Who," He's Back and it's About Time!
Long term Whovian here, once upon a time I was a member of a local fan club. Seen episodes from Dr's 1-6 and the current fellow. The new episodes are well-written, and the effects are much better. Only real gripe is the TARDIS control room. Even if the same cheapskates at the Beeb that erased...- plain old dave
