Lando i know exactly what you mean, my school is cramped, tiny, without airconditioning and in the new york city heat its un bearable to wear heavy weight clothing (thank you very much IHSH-26). I would kill for those 50 degree days where you can throw on a heavy flannel (or the wool melton if i had that one), maybe a sweater and be happy as pie.

I'm with Lando as well, and I probably moved to the absolute worst state for unbearable heat. Last winter in Arizona the warmest thing I had to wear was a FH houndstooth shirt with a light down vest over it.. Serious bummer.

Just discarded of my old PC in the containerpark - sad moment really… I'm getting soft in my old age...

[that_was_easy]

I think we all have an obligation to avoid being as this person in our old age:

that_was_easy – you are so right ! There arrives a point in life where "old" can't really be fixed...and you have to respect that -- let it go. Time to devote resources and energies to the younger generation coming up.

Old news, but could this be the best series ever?.. I could see this being loved by many IH lovers… I got this boxset, new,  for about 40 € (4 seasons) 18 months ago... Fucking well worth it...

[that_was_easy]

My favorite series of the last five years.  Ian McShane is a beast.  I have the boxset that was released a few years ago.  Seems like I should've waited!  What'r the extras included with that one, Seul?

Edit:  Been looking for a soundtrack for a minute as well.

[Seul]

Extras?.. No idea lad… I never look at those... Doesn't say anything about it on the back either... Should have an automated extra where every Alma close up shot is in slow-mo though!..

Pretty excellent show, I still prefer the Wire & the Sopranos over it though.

@tobacco:

Agreed! The Wire, The Sopranos, Deadwood…

Someone get this man a pair of IHs

Anyone else excited for Boardwalk Empire? That show should be tops.

From what I ave watched so far it would be #4 on the list, but I have only watched the first episode… Also, this is turning into a discussion. If there is not a Television thread, someone should start one.

Well, in a return to randomness, some of the new IH products (the fishing and military bags, specifically) are in Olive Drab, which the military abbreviates OD.  How shall we refer to this without confusing it with overdyed, which we've also been calling OD?

I suppose that's more of a "Question to which you seek and answer" than a random announcement, isn't it?   Oops.

Wow, I suck at this.

Oh hey, [i]that's a random announcement…

[LandoCal126 0]

Chris, let's just stick with OD for Overdye and Military Green or Olive or whatever as not to confuse…

[Giles]

Trouble is, I have the first sample of a jean winging it's way to me at the moment that uses OD twill for the pocket bags and rear pocket linings and OD stitching for the arcs - yes thats OD as in Olive drab!!!
