    Guilty of all the above, just look at the avatar which is in fact myself. House full of kero lights, cook on a wood stove.Untill a few years ago I used to get about in a 1921 Dodge buckboard. Ride a horseback, hunt with a muzzelloader and use a pen and ink when on rare accasion I put pen to paper. Get all gussied up in victorian era clothes when I go out.

    Cheers

    I wouldn't say that I'm retro, but, aside from my computer hobby, I would say I have a lot in common with an old man. Shave with straights, smoke a pipe, sip dark beers, enjoy good whiskey etc etc.

    This will pretty much sum it up: Just the other day, my girlfrind was saying how she loved the snow because it is pretty. I, on the other hand, don't really like the snow because I have to be up and out before the sun is up, while it's cold and snowing, and drive in the dark on snow covered roads. I did, however, conceede that I wouldn't mind the snow if I would sit inside in a comfy chair, in front of a fireplace, with my slippers on, smoking a pipe, with a nice glass of liquor, reading a good book, with a big ole' hound dog to keep me company.
