This may be a tall order, but if someone can do this for me, I'd be eternally grateful. To anyone who owns this dvd:

..if its possible, could you rip Immigrant Song and Sick Again audio from the dvd and convert them to .wav or .mp3 and send them to me?? I'd be willing to send a boot (Hip or other) your way, if interested.

This would make my year!

If not thanks for looking.. :lol:

Cory Graff, who works at the Seattle Museum of Flight, sent me this. Most of know the first bit, but the last paragraph is new to me:

"The WWII Army Air Corps hats were issued to the officers. Each officer had it as part of his uniform. Fighter pilots (the guys who became aces) were officers, but usually preferred leather helmets, stowing their cap during flight. As a result, it stayed relatively pristine, stiff, and high—like the one seen in that link on your site.

For the officers in the bombers, it was different. Commonly when you see a photo of a Boeing B-17 crew or a Consolidated B-24 crew, you’ll see a bunch of crewmen gunners (Sergeants and airmen and stuff like that) in some serious puffy leather and cold weather gear. And four guys with those hats are the officers. They were Lieutenants, mostly. They were the pilot, co-pilot, bombardier, and navigator. They commonly were in the nose of the plane where it was relatively warm (relatively) and wore the hats while flying. When the flyer was first issued the hat, it was stiff and high but over time, the ear phones the bomber crewmen would wear (and sometimes flak helmets) would crush the hat down. Some guys took out the lining inside to make wearing the earphones more comfortable and, as a side bonus, it accelerated the breakdown process. I’ve enclosed a little photo of a guy with a hat in the middle of its destruction.

Of course, having the “50 mission crush” look to your hat was the sign of a veteran flyer. Fifty missions was a heck of a lot, your chances of living through ever 25 bomber missions over Europe were pretty low. Anyway, soon, everyone was doing it—not just the bomber guys, but new guys, fighter pilots, and stateside nobodies. It was a real fashion thing.

But here’s the little detail that might be important to part of the song… It was cool to have the sides of your hat all smashed. But it was very uncool to have the front droop down or collapse. As a result, many of these guys put in a piece of cardboard or a playing card on the inside in the front to keep it all going upward. So this hockey card (doing a bit of time travel I guess) is worked into the front of the 50 mission cap as a stiffener."

So I'm thinking about taking a little winter golf trip to Myrtle Beach with my Dad in late February or early March. I started looking online tonight to get an idea at some package prices and the sheer number of golf courses in the area made my head start to spin. I know just about all of the hot spots for golf in Canada, but I am clueless when it comes to the Myrtle Beach golf scene. So I thought I would ask you all for some advice if you've been to this area for golf.

Which courses would you suggest?
Which courses to avoid?
Places to stay?
Did you use a travel agent for your Golf package?

We would probably do a 3 night/4 day trip and try and squeeze in 4-5 rounds. I'm all about the bargains but if I'm going to make the trek down there I would like to budget my trip so that I'm staying in a decent hotel/condo and playing at some of the higher-end courses.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

RG

Just wanted to know if the old website <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.thehipclub.com">www.thehipclub.com</a><!-- w --> is done for good, or will that site/domain be used again in the future? Am I right to assume all Hip Club dealings from now on will go through <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.thehip.com">www.thehip.com</a><!-- w -->? And I take it our old Hip Club cards are now obsolete as well?

Just curious..thanks.
