      okay, coming up on the 7 year itch.  for some reason I just feel like this place has been around longer.

      okay another 2 questions, anybody using a standing desk?

      any thoughts or manufactures that you all are into? maybe I should put this in the healthy living section . . .

      oh & next question, anybody wearing grantstone shoes/boots?  please share your thoughts.

      thanks

          cool.

          How long have you been a standing desk person & with all your healthier choices in life I have no freakin' idea who you are, hahaha

          what have you done with hard living, potato gun shooting, off-road driving, fisherman Giles, hahahahaha?

            I got it about 6 months ago.

            Don't stand all the time, just when I feel like it.

            All that shit still happens MM, but I can now shoot further, drive harder and fish longer…....

                This looks promising.

                    I have a stander @ work too. I stand probably 3-4hrs a day, usually of a morning, and in bursts of an afternoon. I used to stand all day, but have regressed. It's great to have the flexibility and I find I move around/do more if I am standing…love it!

                        Soft, not a 21. More of a pale blue mock twist chambray, exactly like the 65 (which was a western)… Yellow stitching... Selvedge... White buttons... Smells good as well - which is completely irrelevant.

                        Anyone?..

                                Do more of what you like and less of what you don't. I find this surprisingly difficult but it works if you can manage it.

                                      Does anyone know where I can find a high-quality, military-style duffel bag?

                                      Have you got a pic of specifically which style. There are lots of suppliers to the military who do mil-spec duffles are are you referring to an old school type?

                                        After serving in the Army, I can tell you the old Vietnam style ones that are issued are CRAP! I kept one the whole time, because it was part of my inventory, but I used one of these:

                                          pretty sure the question came up multiple times, but i found not that much - since i threw my denim in the washing machine this morning, how do you guys care for the leather patch? i used to use red wing mink oil on my 666 but that made the patch very dark brown and i wanted to keep the patch of my busters lighter, more on orange side. any ideas or cheap grandmother advice?

                                          When my time comes I want to be buried face down. That way whoever doesn’t like me can kiss my ass.
