  2. Thanks ONLY. To be clear, I am not looking for a goretex fabric manufacturer but clothing manufacturer that can take goretex fabric and turn it into a jacket. I don't think you were saying otherwise, but I just wanted to be clear.

    I am not using goretex fabric. I have a project with another fabric that I already have and basically I am looking for a technical gear manufacturer to speak with about it. Just looking for a resource to go to and see if this idea I have is feasible.

  3. Hi Guys,

    does any one know of some small outdoor clothing manufacturers that make technical clothing? So goretex jackets with tapes seams etc?

    I am looking for a small project of mine. It seems like there are the big companies like TNF and Arcteryx that make their own stuff or produce in china, or stuff that is produced in china on a massive scale.

    any help would be greatly appreciated.

  4. I work as a planner at an Ad Agency. It's not bad. Pay kind of sucks but otherwise I can't complain. I just want to make like 20% more money and live some place else.

    I can't say I see myself working on Advertising forever. At this point I don't think it's sustainable. Unless i switch to the creative side which I'd be better at.

  5. Yeah. .086. thanks for the kind words guys. Obviously I know it could be a lot worse and have kept things in perspective. I don't believe I should be exempt from the law, but when you're backed up against a wall, you can't help but be critical of the system that created the law in the first place.

    Anyways, thanks for letting me vent. it helped.

    .10 to .08' date=' you'd pass out long before you 1.0 ;-)

    I was wondering what you blew. .086? Ya, you got fucked. Anyone who's ever had two or three drinks over an hour or two and gotten behind the wheel (and a LOT of people do that every day) was very close to the .08 limit. Not defending drunk driving, but honestly .08 is too low, and the law should have been left at .10 I think it was George Bush (talk about a hypocrit) that put pressure on the states to lower the blood levels to .08[/quote']

  6. what I did is incredibly embarrassing, but here you go. My girlfriend drives an Audi. The headlight dial in her car is weird. there are 3 settings and none of them turn the lights on but the third, which looks like it's the brights. I consciously decided to put it on the 2nd setting because I didn't want my brights on. It was dusk at the time, so I didn't notice. I got pulled over in traffic in denver when it got dark, but it was after a baseball game so there were tons of lights etc on as people left the area.

    I wasn't swerving or anything. Just lights off, but was so pissed at myself because I purposely didn't turn them on.

    I won't argue that I shouldn't have been driving. The slightest impairment isn't good and it was a mistake/bad judgment on my part. But I shouldn't have to go 7-8k in debt and have a record for my whole life. The penalties are ridiculous. the annoying part is, I don't even have a car. I never drive, let alone drive drunk.

    The best indicator of how screwed up the system is is to listen to the derision you hear whenever a DUI is mentioned. People don't want to hear details, you're automatically a degenerate who "could've killed some one". the truth is that 99% of people with DUI's are more than likely as drunk as your dad was driving home from a BBQ when you were a kid. Again, pointless rant.

    yeah, I understand that drunk driving is a bad thing. However, It has been blown way out of proportion. I blew a .086 and was perfectly capable of driving fine. Two years ago, the limit in my state was lowered from 1.0 to .08, so I wasn't a criminal then. There's also no evidence that lowering the limit does anything to stop the real problem, which are drivers that are so drunk or crazy that they don't give a shit. These are the people who run people over. I had like 3 beers over the course of 2 or so hours at a baseball game, I shouldn't be criminalized. Heck, we allow 90 year olds to drive around who have less control of a vehicle than me after 3 beers. Pointless rant......I'm just pissed about it.

  8. My Life sucks right now. I am pitifully broke. I got a DUI in August and paid 3k to some dickhead lawyer who did nothing for me, literally nothing. I got the same punishment I would have got if I was alone. I just finished paying off the debt I incurred from that, and I get a call from my Payroll dept that the court is docking my paycheck for the 1500 dollar fine I owe for the DUI (which I was planning on paying with my tax return). I am so sick of dealing with bureaucracy. I call them up to see if I can not get my pay docked and just pay in march/april and get the privilege of speaking to some asshole who can't do anything for me.

    plus I have a job I hate. I am depressed as hell. and any of the things I normally turn to to cope with being a loser (booze, cigs, shopping, pot) are kind of off limits now cus I'm trying to clean up my act.

    Deep down I know this is all my fault ( even though DUI laws are fucking corrupt and retarded) which makes it even worse.

  9. My Mom works at WIlliams and Sonoma so I have a ton of le creuset and all clad stuff she gets really cheap.

    though my ultimate gadget now is a VITAMIX i just got. thing is insane. I am kind of in a detox/no drinking phase right now, so I use it to blend up raw kale and blueberries (which it does incredibly) but in the future I want to experiment with it. really cool appliance.

  10. So, yesterday i went on this long internet trail where I was listening to random house music from the 80's and 90's on some blog. It got me wanting to listen to some new stuff.

    I only use itunes to download music, but will purchase cd's as well (nothing against downloading illegaly but I am super tech unsavvy and those programs always lead to problems on my computer)

    any good places to buy electro, house music online? suggestions with links?

  11. I live in a ground floor apartment right on a street in a very sleepy town. My place is on the corner of a building and all the units next to it are empty.

    last week at like 3:30 in the morning, I am fast asleep, and a rock the size of a football smashes the window in my bedroom. it's kind of a modern place, so the windows are double plated and like 6 feet tall. scared the living shit out of me. Glass was everywhere in my bed and shit. I ran outside with a vacuum (only thing I could grab quickly haha) but the guy was gone.

    It was weird, shook me up pretty bad when I got to thinking because all the blinds were open on our windows, so the guy purposely threw it in an occupied bedroom.

    Didn't sleep for 2 full days. Was just up with a knife and a big frying pan waiting for like bogeymen to come bursting through my door.

  12. Yeah. I realize that some people on this board went to school, or worked hard at internships, or paid a lot of money in order to have access to this information, so I certainly don't presume that it should be handed out to every idiot with a brand idea. However, If any one could PM, maybe we could work something out.
