    What is the "right" age to retire?

    After 60, there are no guarantees you will continue in good health. So if the things you WANT to do require mobility and mental health, you should retire BEFORE you think you should. I miss absolutely NOTHING of my careers in teaching (at all levels) and law enforcement. There is very...

    Pocket Knife

    I used to carry the Case PEANUT. THEN I MOVED TO THE case SWAYBACK JACK with India Stag. My only problem is they tend to fall out of my pocket when I sit down and consequently have lost 3 of the Jacks!!I love that Wharnclife blade.

    Men's Cologne / Men Of ( STYLE ) THE FEDORA LOUNGE What Are You Wearing ?

    Today I'm thinking of buying the CREED GREEN IRISH TWEED or the CREED AVENTUS. Trying to decide which. The Green Irish Tweed seems more popular. Haven't smelled either so it should be a nice(I hope) surprise.

    What would you not be seen dead in?

    There seems to be a trend of wearing one's sunglasses on the top of one's head. REALLY, you (and me) balding guys, do you really think the sunglasses hide your baldness and give the impression that you really have hair? Oh, and the shaved head tough guy look and the 3 day hairy face (...

    Washing Unsanforized Jeans

    Jonesey I think those RRL are SANFORIZED. so you don't have to worry about shrinkage. The idea is to wear for about 90 days without washing so that the denim will crease and form to your body. Therefore they will form little lines of white that are called "whiskers "in the front thigh area...

    Washing Unsanforized Jeans

    Jonesey, I wear a 36-37 waist. This is the guy at $68. Check the front pockets out. I like them. You may not. He's got another 3-4 pair left. They are super quality! And the sewing is amazing. I rate them higher than RRL. I got the higher rise RRL. TRY A BEST OFFER merchant also.

    Washing Unsanforized Jeans

    Washing Unsanforized Jeans

    I just got into some better jeans and find they DO look good on older gents if they fit right. Some brands I've bought that I like are: BRAVESTAR: the heavy 21oz fit me well. UNBRANDED: surprisingly cheap but look great in black GUSTIN: well worth the money. Check eBay for ready made...

    Denim ankle width and turn up(cuff) depth.

    Down here in the Swamps of South Louisiana, I almost NEVER see rolled up jeans. As for me at 74, I DO look a little pretentious if I roll them up so I actually buy jeans that have my correct pants length--30". Or I buy the 32" for when I wear cowboy boots. I also "adjust" the length as...
