I hope you inherited at least some of that swagger. He looks very cool.

Definitely some. But not sure anyone could be as cool as he was.

He was in the merchant Marines. So definitely a badass. There are some really cool pictures from then too.

He was a really good and caring man. He'd literally give you the shirt off his back if you needed it.

Grandpa lawnmower beer. 30 headaches in every pack from the Land of Sky-Blue Waters and the cartoon bear.

“Hamms the beer refreshing”. It’s what they drank when they ran out of Burgies.

It’s actually pretty good for lawnmower beer IMO. Just—it’s the headaches. Same with Gennessee. Whoa, now that’s a headache.

Our evening began

In Peter Sichel's comfortable study

In his New York townhouse

Where the candlelight was just right

The hi-fi was in the background

And the wine, was delicious

That clock on the wall; we had one just like that. I learned to tell time with that clock.

The font on the carton of diet drinks behind this gentleman looks like it reads “Diet Ebola” if you read it too quickly. I love this pic!

I 100% thought that when I first saw the picture and had to do a double take.

By looking at the clock on the wall, he was probably just as cool at 1:25am as 1:25pm!

How does wearing a tuxedo and holding a couple brews make you cool? By Reddit standards he probably is an asshole, based on the beliefs a lot of older folks hold
