Zippo lighters although now with the government thinking of banning smoking outdoors in some places, their sales will be hurt. I don't smoke but zippos are pretty cool!

The last US sardine company closed several years ago.

Maybe we should all go back and read a few chapters of "Sweet Thursday"?

I lost mine last year and was heartbroken. It was a USS Brewton command lighter I carried in the Gulf War - flawless performance for 20+ years. I can't replace it at any price.:(

Yea I have had mine since Nam, in fact I got it there at the PX, it has a nick on the corner where a piece of shrapnal bounce off my helmet, knocked me for a loop, I use to carry it on my helmet.
I feel for you brother, mine has been through hell and back with me and I would be very heart broken if I lost it.

Welcome home, brother.

At least I didn't have a cool shrapnel story connected with it.

Wikipedia says that the last (large) sardine plant closed up in 2010 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Since Zippo's have a lifetime warranty, I have just sent one back for repairs and the address was in the U.S.A.

There used to be a cannery in Rockland, Maine. Could Zippos really be Nippos?
