    How to Ruin a Perfectly Good Suit

    You forgot lug soles. I see people every day--usually college age or just out of college--who think that it is okay to wear cartoonish lug soled shoes with a suit. It is not okay.

    Adventuring boots for your consideration...

    Indy boots or Wesco boots or any generic wellington.

    Jean Length with Cowboy Boots

    Never say never. In the past year I have seen this one old cowboy walking around South Tucson several times. He always wears Wranglers with a huge five or six inch cuff and cowboy boots. I am not talking about some yuppie in a suburban with a brand new hat; I am talking about some run down...

    Jeans

    The Sugar Cane denim is much better--darker, heavier and slubbier, but I prefer the cut of the Wrangler Repros. The 11mw is narrow in the hips, straight through the leg and has a wider than average ankle opening. They are also very high-waisted. The SC '45s are narrower at the ankle than I...

    Yeah, three pairs of the raw 11MW. I got two of them cheap on ebay and bought the third through Oipolloi. I also have a pair of LVC '47s and a pair of the Sugar Cane '45 repros.

    Going to the movies with Senior Citizens

    I have gone to movies where senior citizens who couldn't hear the movie made so much noise that it was impossible for young people to enjoy the movie. They were constantly talking to eachother trying to determine what had happened or what had been said. I think that culture is more...

    Nagasaki

    [huh] That is all I am saying. I did not criticize the Nagasaki bombing, did not criticize the U.S., and certainly did not deny that both axis powers worked on a bomb. All I took issue with is this cockamamie and unsubstantiated story that the Japanese detonated a nuke, a story that you...

    Nagasaki

    If you had bothered to look at the link--instead of shouting--you would have seen that it discusses the article and gives several references. So what you do is you use your mouse or arrow key to scroll downward to where the cited sources are. Personally I will take Wikipedia over a...

    Nagasaki

    I said a reputable source. Wikipedia does a pretty good job of showing where that newspaper article stands in relation to legitimate history and mainstream historians: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_atomic_program#Development You are basically suggesting that the entire history of...

    Nagasaki

    Please give a reputable source for this extremely unusual point of view which is not supported by any mainstream historian.

    Arthur Lee of LOVE passes

    I love those first three love records more than just about any other three records by any band. Sad thing that he spent all that time in jail too.

    do you believe in EVP? spirits / ghost recordings?

    Matthew is right. Nobody has ever produced repeatable evidence for ghosts. Hume once asked whether it was easier to believe that the laws of physics were occasionally and arbitrarily suspended or to believe that human beings make mistakes. I think, along with him, that the latter is far more...

    Well that stinks. The PR person who answered your email is obviously an ignoramus. VF still uses the name in Europe and Japan--or at least they have licensed it to Edwin to make those repros--so why not here? I think that the chances of Wrangler 47 jeans bearing any resemblance to actual...

    The Black Dahlia

    Looks like it could be pretty good. I loved the book, love Depalma, love Aaron Eckhart, and can't stand Josh Hartnett. I hope that the amount of Hartnett in the trailer is not representative of the amount he appears in the movie. I am sure I'll enjoy it anyway, but I just don't get his...

    Boy recalls past life as a fighter pilot

    I feel sorry for children with crazy parents. I guarantee that this is the result of attention seeking parents rather than some actual memory of a past life. Everybody wants to think their child is special.

    Almost forgot, you can see some of the built by wendy Wrangler 47s for men here: http://www.builtbywendy.com/onlineshop/cart.php?target=category&category_id=259 As you can see, they are pretty rotten.
