  1. Hudson Valley Baby Bourbon has really been my shit lately. Such a great variety of flavors that all roll together, really makes for a nice drink. I'm heading up the distillery in June to check it out in the flesh.

  2. I'm still finding your stance on the show odd. You admit it to be an entertaining show but then say you dont know how it will all end and this makes you not get it. If its entertaining, just let it play out. If it stops entertaining you, stop watching

    My stance is that as one of the purest advocates of The Wire, I will blindly follow this show for 1 season. It's mildly entertaining, but even the worst possible episode of The Wire is better than the best moments of Treme so far. The only thing that's hooked me is the "oh, it's David Simon, so I'm sure shit will jump off soon". We got bout what, 2-3 episodes left?

  3. If David Simon and other Wire alumnus weren't associated w/ Treme, would we all be here right now? If tonight doesn't really impress me, I'm throwing in the towel and canceling the HBO subscription that I picked up solely for the show.

  4. First off they were only $410 I believe and I've looked at a ton of shoes and the quality of Alden is incredible and most importantly for my high arching foot, easily accommodates my custom insoles. Same goes for their flex welt summer suede oxfords which were incredibly comfortable (you can find them on blackbird) I already have some great dressy alden oxfords I found for ebay v cheap and I love them.

    This is my first pair of bucks so by all means please elaborate on the 'nature' of bucks. I'm just trying to bring some swagger to my summer fits and these fit the bill :D

    I ain't denying swag, but bucks are traditionally a warm weather beater shoe for grown folk. Something you can scuff up by wearing in semi-foul wear, the beach, a bbq, horse tracks, etc and not worry about the way you would a pair of $300 shoes that you'd normally wear to the office.

    You shoulda checked out the Brooks Bros version at $198 (which can prob be copped at $150 b/c Brooks has sales left and right).

  5. Alden

    who the fuck would drop $450 on a pair of f'ing bucks. that's beyond counter-intuitive and goes against the nature of a pair of dirty bucks, both in where they come from and what their purpose is. mcnairy tossups are pushing it at $275 a pop, but an alden price/quality point stepping on that turf is just retarded. why not spend the same money for a pair of alden oxfords? or i guess they'd need to be longwings, right?

    kids these days, shit man....

  6. Word is that they dropped their production runs across the board this season, which explains why stuff that traditionally sits on the racks longer sold out so fast (chinos/pants, most outerwear, etc).

  7. If someone like landocal busted out a similar fit as Jack Straw's recent getup (maybe w/ some peanut Quoddy bluchers instead of blue Vans), it would not end up in this thread. Boy just look like a straight fool with that head of his.

  8. ah but If i rock Navy bucks then I look exactly like Owen....

    I agree. The Shamans are no good for that fit.

    I need some Ring Moccs or some shit.. or I could have worn my Navy Quoddys...whatever.

    dont worry on it, you straight killin shit
