I like the idea of the W&G (or something similar) "resurrection" but really wonder if people would really be willing to pay the price needed to produce the quality. W&G had slick advertising and a lot of great stuff and is gone. Fortunately I have tons of the stuff that will last me through my...
I watched that video series you mention and he did appear to have a problem. A bit sad to watch but some good hunting information and presented with Capstick humor and passion.
I would personally suggest Willis & Geiger safari clothing although its hard to find. Shot a nice Cape Buffalo and a couple of smaller things in Tanzania a couple of yeas ago and it worked well.
The state I reside in the few weeks a year I am back in the US is Texas. The greatest thing about it is its Texas. If you live here and love the place you know what that means. From a long term Californian who never looked back.
Last year I had a VERY bad experience after I placed my hat on the bed (had been told by my mother years ago NOT to do that). I know its a stupid superstition but will endeavor not to do that again!
I must admit to considering it as my moustache has completely greyed and the rest of my hair is still relatively dark. I've decided not to as I dont think I would be able to pull of a natural look with the kind of self care products I would have access to in the remote areas I reside. In...
I have really enjoyed reading these posts and while it can be quite depressing living in a society where it seems some are trying to destroy the very concept of right and wrong, it is uplifiting to read the writings of sensible folk who understand the truth. This is one of the reasons I enjoy...
Countryclubjoe, the two things that caught my eye were that your son CAN make the current payment and that he plans on squatting in the home for free for some time to save money. You asked for pros and cons and to me:
1. He can live with honor and continue his contract and hope for an upturn in...
I agree with other posters that in the past people in general lived a much more active existance and thus the need for exercise was less. Today so many people are sedentary and in addition some of our food choices are less than desirable thus it becomes important to do something physical.
My...
Funny guys! On the other hand oh how I would have enjoyed being transported into a nice production of South Pacific after trekking a few hundred miles in that place! It can be rough country.
It's safari wear for me no matter where I am and the few weeks out of the year I am at my home in Texas is no different. I will admit though that not all my safari wear is truly vintage as I prefer the nylon (and quick drying) shorts. At home I will also at times wear a smoking jacket and a...
Good luck with your research. I've been to Biak on my way to the interior or Irian Jaya a number of times and did not realize it held major WWII signifigance. My earlier trips to the island of new Guinea were to PNG and the war there was more evident especially places I trekked like the Kokoda...
Watching that clip it was quite a bit more than simply someone denying the moon landing. The sceptic also called Aldrin to his face "a coward and a liar and a thief". I think a situation like this would be tough for most of us to face and one would, in short order have to make a decision on how...
A very interesting topic and I would not want to be critical of anyone who wished to participate in utilizing vintage scuba gear. After some thought, personally I would have to agree with an earlier poster who thought it wiser to collect such rather than actually use it. I am not sure what one...
I bought a Rolex Sea Dweller about 15 years ago and almost never take it off. Its an OK dive watch and can take high humidity. Back to the OP and his original point, cant imagine writing in to a website to flaunt it especially with a question about which Rolex I wear when driving my 76 British...
It was a wonderful achievement for our country and mankind in general. The night it landed I watched the 1964 movie version of H.G. Wells "First Men In The Moon". Victorians in outer space, talk about vintage!
