Actually, it's nice to see some more women joining the forum. We can't have too much testosterone around here, you know!

Thank you !

Maybe girls look good in hats because the men are always compare with Indiana Jones !!!

Yes, it's a great place for Indy fan.
And I hope I can post many messages.
But it's difficult for me, because I dont's really speak English...

You have a nice collection, there, with pieces I have been looking for. Hope you stick around, it's a friendly group of people here.

You type better English than most North Americans speak English.

Welcome! and nice Indy gear - you wear it well!

elodiejones, it's Canyon here. Great to see you on COW!

I really like your fedora, and the rest of your gear is great, especially the sword and gun. Very nice!

Beautiful hat, beautiful lady. Welcome aboard. We need more females around here. Any female that gets into Indy gear is something special. We need more of em' regards, Fedora

Welcome elodiejones!!! Great looking fedora!

You'll find this place a home away from home. Don't worry about the language barrier. You are with friends!

Fedora, you old smoothy!

But I agree - welcome to COW, please post often!

You'll find that this is one of the nicest groups of people on the net - generous, supprtive and genuine.

Enjoy your stay at Club Obiwan.

Fedora's an old smoothy? What flavour?

Watch out, elodiejones, we're all a bunch of "smoothys" around here. Heck, we've even got Canyon fooled! (But we're still a bunch of nice, crazy folks!)

Um, Fedora's really a FRESH smoothy! Err... um, I mean, he's not smooth at all.. no... errrr... I mean... dern.

Tim, I'm picking myself up off the floor!

Elodie, I think you and your monkey will be quite popular around these parts.

Welcome aboard! Don't worry about the English, most of us can't speak it either!

Bink actually learned "English as a second language here!" It's true!...We're not sure what his first language was "but the way he writes"

BTW...Great looking gear Elodie, I was just wondering what kind of whip that is, if you don't mind me asking? It's not one of Adam's Budget Indy's is it?

Warm Regards
Kilgour Trout

That's the best looking Herbert Johnson that I have ever seen. Welcome to COW, Elodie. Now, when exactly was that Switzerland summit? $\:D/$

Strider · Post by **Strider** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 6:57 pm

You have quite an impressive gear collection, congratulations. Is this your first 'Indy' style fedora? When I first got my Peters Bros. custom Indy, I was happier than a kid in a candy store. What's it like to wear? I've never owned a Herbert Johnson fedora, so I'm just curious: is it comfortable? What sort of felt is it made out of? Anyway, thanks for the pics! You look very sharp in them

Welcome aboard, hope you enjoy your stay here @ Club Empty Wallet..er..Club Obi-Wan.

Regards,
Strider

(In the words of Mr. Renderking Fisk.)

Nice collection you have there, and the hat looks first class I must say.

Is your Mk VII a Canadian or Australian bag btw.?

Kris · Post by **Kris** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 9:22 pm

Perfect ... And so is the Hat !

Great gear also .. Enjoy your stay here .. And remember, whenever your in danger, just pull out some Coffee Beans, and the entire forum is at your disposal...

ShanghaiJack · Post by **ShanghaiJack** » Thu Nov 18, 2004 9:34 pm

Welcome to COW Elodie. Great photos of the HJ! I like your other gear too. Don't worry about your English as long as we are communicating that's all that matters! If that doesn't work you can always dazzle them with a photo of you in your HJ.

That is a perfect point! I had never thought of that before, but kind of depressing if I am always compared to HF. I guess it's time to start working on my Temple bash!

Swindiana · Post by **Swindiana** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 3:06 am

I just noticed the broken off Mercedes hood ornament.

VERY clever and not only a piece for hip hoppers to have around the neck it seems.

I wonder if the grill from a 72 Volvo will do...

Bink or should I say "Doctor" Bink. Now I know why you're either early or late for things. That Dang Tardus...

I'm digging out my 26ft BBC Acurate scarf this weekend, its getting too cooold these last couple of days.
Should look interesting with the Fedora.

Kilgour

binkmeisterRick · Post by **binkmeisterRick** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 10:55 am

Actually, the Akubra works well with that scarf! I have a couple Who scarves which come in handy during colder months! That's the cool thing about a good fedora. As you can tell by Elodie, a good fedora looks great with about anything you wear, be it jeans and a shirt, or a three piece suit.

elodiejones · Post by **elodiejones** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 11:52 am

Oh my GOD !

Thank you everybody!

You are really a "friendly group of people "

I don't know if I can answer at all questions...

Thanks for my English. My language is French. And in Switzerland, we don't learn Englsih at school !!!

Canyon : the gun is only a toy from Disneyland Paris. My father cut the cannon. For look more like the Indy gun

Redbeard : The poster is a stickers for the release of Indiana Jones DVD.
The store give it and all other publicity to me.

binkmeisterRick / Langpuss : Thanks for the monkey

Kilgour Trout : My whip is a simple whip from a swiss magazine : ERNEST ROTH SA. The whip is a wester mexican whip COLORADO SPRINGS 3 meters 22$

Strider : Yes, it's my first real Indy style fedora. Befor, I had the Disney hat. And like you "I am happier than a kid in a candy store"

Swindiana : I don't know for the bag ??? What is different ?

Thank you everybody!

We told you you'd fit in just fine.

As you can see, this is one of the most welcoming online communities around!

Swindiana · Post by **Swindiana** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 12:03 pm

And me, still bothering the new folks with bag questions.

If you look inside the flap, are any of these markings around?

Also, if you look at the snaps and find an inscription that says: "Newey", it's a British one. If not, it could be Canadian or Australian.

Swindiana

Elodie,
Welcome. As was said before this is a great bunch of folks. Hope you enjoy your stay.

That's a really funky monkey - he'd make a great avatar!]

Personally I would rather see this as your avatar--

elodiejones · Post by **elodiejones** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 12:08 pm

How can I put this picture like avatar ?

Swindiana · Post by **Swindiana** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 12:25 pm

First you need to resize it to 100x100 pixels. Then upload it to your picture site. After that, right click your image and pick "properties" in order to copy the address for it. Head for your 'Profile' link and paste the image address where it says 'Link to off-site Avatar:'
That should do it.
Your image address would then be something like this http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v18/I ... avatar.jpg

HERE is a resized version of it.

Swindiana

ok, I'll say it...

it's funny to read the PC comments, as everyone tries to restrain ourselves from saying she's a total cutie, because we all wish to be respectful gentlemen, and honour the COW code.

Okay, then I'll say it, even though I'm married.

elodiejones is a total cutie!

I think it must be an Indy thing that all the women on this forum are attractive. Heck, when I saw a picture of ITG with her mom, even her mom's a looker! You come from good stock, Holly!

Hi Elodie, welcome on bord the fantastic Club Obi Wan train. You are gonna love it here, so please stay onboard for a loooong time. You are about to embark on a jurney beyond your wildest dreams.

I know is was hooked the first day I found COW,

You look smashing with your hat on those pictures. Im currious, what's the Mercedes logo for is see in the picture with all your Indy-gear ????

binkmeisterRick · Post by **binkmeisterRick** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 4:32 pm

Hey, Ace, remember when Indy was hanging on to the front of the truck in Raiders? He snaps it off before climbing under the truck.

bink

Ace · Post by **Ace** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 4:39 pm

Ahha thanks for reminding me Bink. I completely forgot about that part. I guess Indy somehow managed to get it into one of his pockets before he took the dusty trip below the truck.

Bufflehead Jones · Post by **Bufflehead Jones** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 8:50 pm

Bink,

Where is the monkey that you are talking about? I saw the screen accurate snake, but I don't see a monkey.

ShanghaiJack · Post by **ShanghaiJack** » Fri Nov 19, 2004 8:54 pm

Hey Elodie, where did you find that sword? It's really neat! You've got a lot of great gear.

3thoubucks · Post by **3thoubucks** » Sat Nov 20, 2004 2:18 am

Canyon "lights my fire", like a freshly folded sweatband makes my head sweat. That's because she looks kinda like my wife. But Elodie- You do resemble Miriam! If you get a white dress like hers with a big lace flower in back, like in Raiders, .. "I would ver much like to see you in it!" (French accent) An HJ is a beautifull thing. combine 2 beauties and you get double beauty. Fashon hats for women never really went away for ladies like they did for men. Not that hats are all about fashon..there's sun protection and warmth, which is why they exist in the first place.

Indiana Texas-girl · Post by **Indiana Texas-girl** » Sat Nov 20, 2004 3:29 am

Miriam? Is that's Marion's long lost sister?

Welcome Elodie! It's good to get some more estrogen on COW. I just thought of something...since we're on COW, and we're female, does that mean the guys can call us Heffers? Oh my! I hope not.

My hat from Germany

Great Gear Elodie!

That explains it!
