Good call. I did notice that the main character didn't wear a fedora but I think the "Newsboy" cap was a better fit for Jim Braddock and his situation in life

Re: Gobekli Tepe

Blackthorn, I always loved reading about your adventures. Adventure travel has always been something I wanted to do, but I could never afford. You have been my eyes to so much of the world I have not gotten to see. Alas, as I have gotten older I am closer to being financially able, but as you said m...

One of my favorite modern period films. Although the main character never sports a fedora, there are many in the film

The are of course from the 2004 film "The Aviator". It had fedoras and airplanes, I don't think I have to say anything else. :)
And a great soundtrack

Re: Why Pyramids?

Very interesting observation. While I have recognized this fact, I never gave it any thought. Perhaps it is just a simple structure that is not only easy to build, in terms of strength it is unmatched. As you mentioned, give a child some blocks and after a while they will figure out a means of stack...

Re: Centennial of the 1918 Armistice

Dillo,

I love seeing your pictures. I admit that the Great War is an interest of mine, but I do not have near the historical knowledge I would like to have.

Thank you for posting this

Re: Halloween Costumes!

Re: Halloween Costumes!

Also, funny story about my Ash costume- I bought the shirt with every intention to tear it up, since I usually don't wear much blue- but my wife liked the shirt so much, she insisted I not destroy it- so I realized I should have bought two. I suppose it's practical not to tear off the sleeve; some ...
