    Post New Hats Here!

    These new hats are so stiff that I'd really have to work it over to (permanently) snap it down in front. For this one, I'll take scotrace's advice and leave it as is. I'm a bit of a purist anyway.

    The Open Road Guild

    It sure looks like an Open Road to me. Does Owen Wilson--er, "Eli Cash" in the film--get to join the guild? Now, if only I could find that stylin' jacket of his somewheres . . .

    Your favorite Scotch? Your Favorite liquor in general?

    My best gal visited Scotland a year ago and brought me back a bottle of Laphroaig at my request. It's very unique--quite peaty. And yes, it does stay with you awhile.;) The Drambuie she bought wasn't bad either.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I caught American Grafitti the other day on T.V. It was even better than I remembered. The final scene that lays out the destiny of the four main characters, right before the credits, always seems to get to me.

    Where did your user name come from??

    "Cromcruiach" is the approximate spelling of the gaelic term meaning "crooked mountain." It's thought that thirties pulp writer Robert E. Howard (that's him to the left) used the term to name the god (Crom) of his character, Conan. Conan, of course, was subsequently screwed-up, dumbed-down...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hey all! I have to admit that it was only upon discovering The Fedora Lounge that I realized just how deeply I am into the Golden Age. From Duke Ellington to Cary Grant, Dashiell Hammett to Errol Flynn, The Marx Brothers to The Shadow, it suddenly hit me how much I love the books, movies...
