that sucks and I know the pain. I go years without sunglasses as I hate the pain of searching for a new pair/look

[tatmantall]

Yeah… I'm picky... I have a ton of others... Some McQueen persols, a few other ray ban aviators, and othe miscellaneous but those ones were just exactly perfect.... Normally I buy and then they just sit cause they aren't quite right

The fact that some poor animal died for these shoes is horrific. I understand that leather comes from dead animals, but it's done in, what I personally think, as a respectful manner and meant to last. These are just a shock meant to be tossed after effect has passed. Tried unsuccessfully to find the source.

Drama in Danner land.

I guess my boots didn't fit into the "resole package" so they tried to charge me $150 for the "premier Package." I mentioned to the nice lady that having to put $150 into $340 boots six months after purchase was a little insane. After a few emails and a phone call from a higher up at Danner, they decided to warranty the boots. The problem with that is that the warranty doesn't cover repair, but only allows for replacement. I'm not really digging anything else they have to offer functionally or aesthetically. I guess I'm just gonna have to pay for the repairs anyway. What a mess.

Bummer LN, sounds  remarkably like my experience with Alden

[Licorice Noose]

For what these companies charge for boots, You'd think they would just make it right and keep a customer forever. Oh well. Not every company can be run by Giles, right?

^Too true… I was quite pleased to just receive excellent customer service from Hank Player. One of my tees developed a small hole by the tag (too much pressure on the bobbin when sewing I think) so I contacted them and they sent out a new shirt right away no questions asked.

Sundays consist of me turning on me cell at 6 am waiting for The Call…

Sure enough: call at 7... Gotta go to work...

Snow at the end of April blows. Just enough that I'm in the car rather than on the bike.

I quote this from an article on Qatar, reputedly the wealthiest nation on earth…..

"It's bewildering for students to graduate and be faced with 20 job offers," one academic at an American university campus in Qatar tells me. "People feel an overwhelming pressure to make the right decision."

My God, that must be tough, my heart bleeds for the poor dears….

why not just order a replacement pair and sell them to get a pair of boots that won't fall apart?
