Utah Bob #35998 Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 I have decided on a new hobby. I shall buy a vintage sports car, possibly red, and cruise the college campuses inder the pseudonym Professor Alpha Centauri Jones, head of the Astrophysics Archaeology Department. I think I may need an ascot too. And some tweed. EDIT: By the way, I’m not looking to hook up with silly co-eds, God forbid. I would prefer more mature faculty members. Like art or history teachers who could hold an intelligent conversation over a glass of wine. So there! Or perhaps I’m setting the bar too high. Yeah. Dumb plan. I’ll put my cowboy boots back on.

You'd be more likely to have an intelligent conversation WITH the silly co-ed. Their minds are still developing. The mind of your average college teacher has been rotted by years of "Academia".
El diablo gringo Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 What’s all this nonsense about talking? If I wanted to converse I’d just hang out with my Boston Terrier. Gringo

Calamity Kris Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 You look quite handsome in the picture, UB. I say go get 'em, tiger.
Alpo Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 Isn't there supposed to be suede elbow patches on that jacket?
Dusty Devil Dale Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 The college campus venue probably is not a good choice if you're looking for logical thought and non-confronational conversation.
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted July 13, 2022 Posted July 13, 2022 You do cut a fine and professorial figure!
Tennessee williams Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Funny, I read that post with Sean Connery's voice from Finding Forrester in my head. One of my favorite movies by the way...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 You'll need a "brolly", too, preferably with a wood or leather handle.
Caladisi kid Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Utah Bob, My apologies! The lighting in the photo sure makes it look photo shopped. If we ever meet at some pub down the road I owe ya a pint and good cigar.
Chickasaw Bill SASS #70001 Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 well heck almost all my ideas are DUMB , some are down right STUPID CB

Colorado Coffinmaker Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Don't let the "Nay-Sayers" bug ya. I really like the Cap. Be it a "Thug" or "Paper Boy" or whatever, it's a fine Cap. I have about a dozen of 'em. Some from Ireland, Some form Scotland, Some from Disneyland. Great Hats all.
Rip Snorter Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Funny, I have a cap that was my Dad's, a Cuffley Cap by Stetson, fur felt made in England of all things. Rather stylish and it looked good on him. He wore it on a trip to visit relatives in Germany. Everyone was horrified because at the time, that cap style was all the rage among German gangsters.
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Bob, I love the pipe!! Tell us about your pipe!
Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Whiskers... Check! Car... Check! Pipe... Check! Hat... Check! Edit: Oops... almost forgot the academic! Ms Helen Brimstone... retired engineer, with a background in thermodynamics and aerospace... classically trained pianist...

Utah Bob #35998 Posted July 14, 2022 Author Posted July 14, 2022 I do not wear the scally cap into town. I would be pegged as a tourist and wouldn’t be able to get a good deal on Navajo jewelry. Might possibly incite a lynch mob also.
Eyesa Horg Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Those portrait conversions are pretty cool. Looking good PR & UB.

Marshal Dan Troop 70448 Posted July 14, 2022 Posted July 14, 2022 Maybe this would be a great ride. Just think how cool you would look pedaling down the country side roads with a pipe in your mouth, your tweed jacket with added elbow patches, and greeting the ladies in your best British Accent. The best part, its Red.
