Re: Is SMF losing its vigour?
Logging in after all these years, I get that same feeling I get from hearing that theme song from 'Cheers'. Never have I ventured into any other internet forum with such a friendly, helpful group of gentlemen such as those that gather here. The character of the atmosphere is what always keeps me com...

Max, status update.
Good day, gentlemen. I've been away, due to some issues I'm sorting out. I appreciate the few of you whom have inquired about Max and his current status. After so long, I still don't know. I should know in about two weeks. He is getting a liver biopsy next Thursday. I had a meeting with the surgeon ...

Shaving with a straw hat.
Good day, gents. I've been away for a bit, actually still out on an extended vacation, celebrating my lady's birthday. I recall a not too distant thread, where a most unusual question was posed - what do you wear when shaving, or the like? Well, sporting a semi beard, I decided to shave, in the publ...

By far, by favorite chepo cream. It was a classic indeed, what a loss. Excellent performer, and a scent that grew on you. Quite unusual scent, but one that I now tend to miss every once in a while. Anyone say 'competition?' Well, I cleaned house at my local pharmacies, plus, I purchased quite the bu...

I tried filling up the sink once or twice. Did not work for me. I felt it to be too messy. And, even though it is kept quite clean and shiny, something about using that water that's been marinating in the vanity sink for a bit does not sit right with me. OCD, perhaps, but, it feels quite pleasant an...

Re: Government Wants to Ban Pocket Knives
Government wants to eliminate most pocket knives: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/?pageId=100679 One of the more unintentionally funny articles I have read in a long time. I was quite amused, too, until the realization quickly set in that such a sizable portion of our populace thinks it truth speaking...

Wondering, I'm I the only one whom posts a thread, only to shortly thereafter smirk, and decide that such a topic perhaps was best kept away from here, perhaps a topic best entertained at a cocktail party with friends sharing the same bottle, and not on this forum? I do all the time. This one comes ...

Great review and pictures, Peter. I must note that for whatever reason, pictures do not do justice to the engraving on these new ones, specially the macro shots. Without fail, I've found that the lettering looks much, much better in person, IMO, and I have not as of yet been able to replicate what m...

Ahhhh! Enter the Plisson apologists.... Ahem..pardon, I missed the bat call. Much has been said in the past about this. I don't think there is much more to add. Somewhere above $85 dollars US or so, one is not buying extra performance, per say. When spending anything more than that, there is no rat...

Emmanuel Kant and Pepto Bismol, part II
It's my weekend again, so I might do some posting. Albeit, in light of the replies that my recent Kant/Critique of Pure Reason threadp received, in particular the video links that were posted, I've decided to key down the thoughts I share. I shall try* to keep Immanuel Kant and his kin away from the...

Sam, I think the link is ok, and further, anyone whom clicks through to it and reads will get the gist of the contents and it's source and make their own judgement. But I'm with Tim, or at least where he is coming from. I don't think that referring to any political or religious leader in a derogator...
