    Ditto on Gustin. Their stuff looks fantastic! They’re the ones with the herringbone jeans. But I’ve seen mixed reviews on the accuracy of their sizing above & beyond the inherent issues with selvedge denim. The ones who get what they wanted absolutely gush about them. But the ones who...

    Well, it’s the same campaign; odds are good they can’t all be winners!

    I’m pretty picky about jeans. I wore the same 2 styles from Levi’s for 20 years until they got discontinued. Tried Wranglers; hated them. Tried Lee, and found a couple of styles that worked, and also found a couple of different Levi’s that I found acceptable as well. Unfortunately, the new...

    There’s also an element of demonstrating the importance of taking the high road. Leading by example, as it were. Some History: Many of the oldest Mardi Gras Krewes (social clubs) of New Orleans were segregated. Someone sued to desegregate them on the grounds that- although they were nominally...

    I’m thinking it’s a combination of; 1) people who regard Hammond as a heroic figure. 2) people who haven’t a clue as to Hammond is. 3) people who know who Hammond is, but hope that the school’s programs and reputation will open doors.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    For intelligence gathering purposes, look on Instacart, and the websites for the bigger grocery chains, including Walmart & Amazon. That will at least show you what BRANDS are selling what you want, and whether it’s canned or frozen.

    Thanks! If I find something that really works for me, I’ll buy duplicates for backups. Sometimes- depending on what it is- I’ll buy it in different colors. ESPECIALLY if I can catch it on sale. Not exaggerating: I literally have 2 tubs of clothes and maybe a dozen “backstock”shoeboxes in my...

    I’m here in Dallas/Fort Worth. Attorneys in the eastern side of the Metroplex usually won’t appear in court any more western than a pair of cowboy boots. (Raises hand.) In the western side? Besides the boots, you WILL see cowboy hats, bolos and possibly even some vests and embossed leather...

    I had an ACL/MCL repair surgery in my early 30s.* It was MONTHS before I could move my leg in any normal fashion. That she did what she did was impressive as hell. That was some Icarus level stuff. Besides, it wasn’t the leg damage that caused the crash- she got badly entangled in one of the...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I’ve seen it a couple of times- usually in the frozen veggies section- but it’s not something my family eats, so it’s not on my radar. But a quick search shows me different brands of frozen & canned succotash at physical and online groceries, and even one restaurant I’ve been to that serves it...

    Confession time, y’all. I like clothes, shoes, hats, jewelry, etc. By that, I mean the stuff people actually wear, from casual to getting all dressed up.* My personal style ranges from t-shirts & jeans to preppy to men’s formal to some pretty foppish & dandified outfits- including some custom...

    Point of fact, tonight’s dinner was half of a chicken breast and some buttered California mix.* * broccoli, cauliflower & carrots.

    I actually appreciate defensive struggles. That dude in the Pat’s secondary put on a cape and kept his team in it for sooooo long.
