Retro Iroquois Brewing T-Shirt

One of our favorite retro beer brewery shirts at RetroRanger is the classic Iroquois Chief, longtime symbol for Iroquois Brewing of Buffalo, New York. This graphic taken from classic 1950s advertising for the brewery. The Iroquois Brewing T-Shirt, how's that for a $12 t-shirt!

Iroquois Brewing of Buffalo, New York survived prohibition by brewing soda and near beer and reopened shortly after prohibition ended in April 1933. After prohibition Iroquois became the largest brewer in Buffalo, attaining a capacity of 600,000 barrels per year.
In the 1950s, Iroquois merged with a group of other regional brewers and formed the International Brewing Company. Iroquois' partners in this venture included Silver Bar (Tampa, FL), Frankenmuth (Frankenmuth, MI), and Old Dutch (Findlay, OH).
Iroquois Brewing was taken independent again in 1965 but finally closed it's doors in 1971

Finding A Vacation Rental

One of the best online resources for locating a vacation rental is without a doubt Craigslist. I've just posted a blog post over on Teeblr on using Craiglist to get a current list of Outer Banks vacation rentals by owner for those planning a North Carolina vacation.

Networking A Computer And TV

I have my computer hooked into the living room television with a pretty simple system. The video inputs with a splitter off the computer video cable and the audio is transmitted through a little FM transmitter. This system gets whatever is on the computer over to the tv and works pretty well for watching streaming movies and vids.
I've been thinking of upgrading though. I think I'd like to be able to browse the web from the comfort of the sofa so have the need for a more versatile connection between the pc and tv. Since I'm educating myself to the possibilities out there I figured I might as well blog about the journey. Isn't that what people do these days?
Just debuted a new blog, My PC To TV, and in it I'll share the new systems and solutions to the PC to TV problem. First real post is a video of Icron's new wireless system. Pretty cool stuff.

Lip Bone Connected To The Trom Bone

One of our favorite trombone shirts over at RetroRanger's Emporium of Musical Sweetness is this Skull and Bones Trombone Shirt. You've got the ever-cool skull wearing a marching band hat, over crossed (trom)Bones plus text "Skull & Bones." And a pretty good deal at 15 bucks.

Come to think of it, I often feel like the skull dude after a few hours of marching band practice. Be sure and check out RetroRanger for other cool marching band t-shirts and musical sweetness!
