if i could grow about 4 inches and drop about 30 lbs i'd swag all over your momma's momma

+1 on that.

Oddly enough my worst two concerts came from to amazing live bands not thanks to the venues they had chosen.

Modest Mouse at Sound Academy Toronto - the massive brawl that broke out when I assume some meathead looked at another meatheads girlfriend. Nothing says a good time like having to watch some kid get his head kicked over and over.

Animal Collective at Sound Academy - Fuck I hate that venue.

My two favorite quotes have, oddly, turned up in a couple blogs;

A person filled with Gumption doesn’t sit around dissipitating and stewing about things. He’s at the front of the train of his own awareness, watching to see what’s up the track and meeting it when it comes. That’s Gumption.†– Robert Pirsig, Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance

…We would look out over the immense sea, full of white-flecked and green reflections, the two of us leaning side by side on the railing, each of us far away, flying in his own aircraft to the stratospheric regions of his own dreams. There we understood that our vocation, our true vocation, was to move for eternity along the roads and seas of the world. Always curious, looking into everything that came before our eyes, sniffing out each corner but only ever faintly - not setting down roots in any land or staying long enough to see the substratum of things; the outer limits would suffice. Ernesto Che Guevara, The Motorcycle Diaries

i believe they stretch anywhere from 1-2 inches. opinions vary on the stretching. if you don't like your jeans very tight around your waist in the end i would suggest maybe going true to size instead..

Thanks for the info. I decided to keep the sized down pair and, low and behold, they have stretched a good inch. Here's hoping for one more inch and I am good and perfect.

So here is something awesome I read that I thought I would share. I am a massive fan of Monocle magazine and everything they do because they just do it with so much more class. Well, apparently, as Monocle expands its retail presence, they will be opening a few more of their stores... and one may be in Toronto! Check out the article at the link I posted and notice the quick acknowledgment about the cities that are getting the new stores.

Hey I just picked up my first pair of Naked and Famous jeans. I bought the grey selvedge weird guy and I am just wondering what experiences people have with stretching as they are worn. I got them a size down to a point where the top button doesn't close but I know jeans stretch a lot. Anyways thanks for any info.
