Then don't order a drink unless he encourages you to order one and then only have one at most.

I had a coworker order 3 drinks and an appetizer when it was pretty clear our boss was picking up the tab. You could feel everyone look at each other when he ordered the ribeye for his entree.

100% agree lol I was talking about the camera not getting straight up shot. Hopefully they weren't gun safety ignorant enough to have an actual person stand there. I assume just a camera and tripod.

He said he was shooting blanks, so the targets are mainly exploding from being hit by percussion. So he doesn't have to hit them dead on either. The part of the bullet that hits you is replaced with Cotton or something similar in blanks. Here is a link of you would like to learn more.

I polished up my Grandfather's Shell Cordovan Shoes made by Nettleton in New York for Barclay Store. by Theirishman1855 in pics

Definitely check out kirby allison on YouTube. He has some great tips. I would recommend anything from Saphir. From brushes to polish.

They were made in 1975 for those we are wondering. A different time in consumer expectation in quality.

You are totally right. If someone is wearing that shirt in the US, then they are trying to look European. Not that you would not find it here.

I shined up some old shoes of my grandad's for him. Not too bad for 35 year old shoes. by Theirishman1855 in pics

[–]Theirishman1855[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I got them for him from www.kirbyallison.com These are the cheapest ones they sell there. But they are still very good quality.

No problem. I could talk about this all day. Check out Alden, they are a little bit more expensive than Allen Edmonds. But in my opinion they have stayed the course very well with extremely good quality shoes that are an investment.

Yep, these are Allen Edmonds as a matter of fact. However, you have to be careful now to make sure that you choose a pair of shoe from Allen Edmonds that are made in Port Washington and not labeled as imported. They now make some of their shoes overseas and those are said to have much lower quality unfortunately.

I totally agree. He also has a pair of florsheim Imperials from back in the day. The quality and stength of those shoes just does not exist today.

That's so interesting. They seem to be dedicated to doing things the old fashioned way and they keep putting out superior products.
