    What do you do for Living?

    Would you get mad at me if I told you I sold a 1941 Martin D28 for $1000 back in 1983 when my granduncle died and left it to me? I was 19 and that was a lot of money back then! :D I understand they were just south of $100,000K at the peak before the economy tanked. Could be worse, It...

    Amateur Radio - Golden Era

    I came across these while surfing the internet for a fine pair of shoes... can't seem to find anywhere in the entire US to buy them however... Was hoping to get some thoughts on them? Are there any US distributors? How are they, worth the $800? I especially love the heavy sole and metal...

    What do you do for Living?

    Too cool... My son is quite interested in the field. Is it hard to find work after one gets his requisite PhD? btw.. I live right near you, we're at 67th Ave/Jomax, just east of Peoria.

    What do you do for Living?

    I'm a bit of a WWII armchair general and amateur historian.. is that a re-enactment group, or was that posed for a particular magazine? Looks like Waffen SS, correct?

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    I'm a regular pipe guy, but I suppose I'll take one out tomorrow and try them. My friend said they were about $15/ea which leads me to think they aught to be at least a decent mild to medium smoker.. the wrapper is pretty light and the pack of the tobacco seems quite dense.. Will report back...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    I quit cigarettes a while back, and at that time didn't smoke Cigars. I'm able to smoke a Cigar as little or as often as I like, and same goes for the pipe.. no addiction what so ever.

    Casual wear fedoras?

    GWD, this was my attempt at a Jeans and t-shirt Fedora... I'm still tweaking it however, and thinking of reducing the brim size. It started its life as a Stetson 100X cowboy hat, would you believe?
