    Wild Country by Chris Whitley Breaking rocks all day on the avenue It's hard to unearth anything that's true Soon I'm gonna loose these rags and run Returning to the wild where I'm from There's miles of stone, jack hammer in my hand There's compromises I can't comprehend Soon I'm...

    No problem. Also, as always don't forget to read the directions that came with the hat stretcher. Good luck!

    Sweatband Tear

    A little leather conditioner is how I prep. I use a product called Lexol. http://www.lexol.com/ You can buy it at any automotive supply place. I use it mainly for my car seats after I've cleaned them. You only need a little bit. A couple things to keep in mind. Make sure the stretcher...

    Sweatband Tear

    Hey Lance, bummer about the leather. If you don't have the spare cash at the moment to get it repaired you might want to try crazy glue for wood and leather. It looks like you have a pretty clean rip so this may enable you to enjoy the hat until you can afford to get it fixed. Just remember to...

    Best "hat movie" ever?

    I don't think anyone has mentioned "The Natural" starring Redford. I'm watching it now and there are a lot of great hats and clothing.

    World War I veterans

    That is a great picture Big Man. I think about WWI every time I hold my 1903 Springfield, which was built in 1917. Its one thing to read about history and another to hold it in your hands. Just like owning a vintage dress or a fedora. There was a great film that came out in 2001 called...

    If you only had one old rifle, which?

    I would have to go with My M1903 Springfield (manufac. 1917). Bought from CMP for I think a little under $400. Its a beautiful rifle and a great shooter, plus it has history. When you fire something like that you can only imagine what it has been through and who has held it. It has a WWII type...

    I need your help....yes, you.

    Store #2711 Fort Myers, FL They had one copy shoved behind a bunch of "dude" magazines and some ink ones as well. I didn't see anything out front. There are a few other B&Ns in my area, Naples and Estero, so I'll try to check them out.

    Though I haven't had the pleasure of talking with HJ(Tim) I have enjoyed reading many of his posts. You're in my thoughts.

    Whippet or Whipped?

    First time caller, long time listener I just wanted to chime in that I was the guy who won that Stetson Playboy. I was actually prepared to pay much more for it, but I got lucky and no one seemed interested. Its a gift for my dad who use to wear fedoras back when he was just starting out in...
