  2. Wurd. I have a Seiko Orange Monster, an SKX009, and one of the 37mm Seiko 5 pilot style autos. Every one is as dependable as Marshal Dillon.

  6. You're in good company, Lani. BTW, that Doxa on your left wrist is supabadass like Bruce Lee.

  10. I have this exact watch. Maybe it's not a "dress" watch, but it is an extremely good value. I bought it about 18 months ago and it runs less than 2 sec/day fast. I'm going to buy another Hamilton at some point. If you need one that you feel is a dress watch, there's this one: http://www.hamiltonwatch.com/webapp/en-us/collection/?c=ac&y=93 But if you like the khaki chrono, by all means get it. My wife thinks it's the best-looking watch I have.

  12. That's good news. Is it too late (or lame) to ask if your canine is a watchdog?

  16. Not my style, but it's clear that your Ice Man knows what he's doing. That looks like a lot of work.

  18. You're all wrong! The best wallet currently available is this one: http://badmofowallets.com/ It's not stamped, it's embroidered.

  20. I have 15.6 Mbps down and 1.5 Mbps up. I don't actually know what it costs since in the division of responsibility, my wife pays that one.
  21. "Leading the nation" is completely different from being Commander in Chief (CINC) of the Army and Navy. One is a specific designation of military authority, the other is rather more nebulous and touchy-feely. Being CINC means that the members of the armed services are obliged to obey his lawful orders. As I (to take an example) am no longer a member of the military, I am not obliged to obey his orders. Many in the media, especially during the time immediately after September 11th, mistakenly referred to the president as the CINC of the nation, or of the United States. This is really only true if we become a military dictatorship. Regarding the Presidential Oath of Office: It is not simply an oath or affirmation, it is The oath or affirmation. It is of such importance in defining the duties of the president, that when the House Judiciary Committee passed articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon, the articles specifically cited violation of the oath as justification for removing Nixon from office.
  22. That's a handsome movement. A recent issue of Watch Time magazine (I think it's the one with that lunatic Glenn Beck on the cover) asserts that Webster Ball is the source of the expression "on the Ball." Since he was the man in charge of keeping the railroad clocks accurate; when he was successful and gained for the railroad clocks a reputation of precision, anything that was on schedule or proficient could be described as being "on the Ball."
