    Hi everyone,

    I joined SUFU in 2012 (same username) and made this account more recently, but was never the most active poster due to a busy (but not always exciting) life.  I decided to go for the DWC to get more involved with a community of people with this similar interest, so I'd like to introduce myself here as I plan to post more regularly, especially with updates to the DWC.

    I live in Cambridge, MA. The Boston area has so much to offer in terms of culture as well as wonderful outdoor spaces, whether it's parks, the common & public garden, or just streets and neighborhoods. I grew up listening to hardcore punk and playing in bands, and still make an effort to go to shows and am trying to get a new project off the ground.

    I love cooking and coffee, beer and red wine.  My wife and I both work in education, and have a boston terrier named Fig Newton.

    Cheers!

    Harry

          Hello from Alaska!

          I'm not new to denim but I believe my quest for quality shirting has landed me here.

          I'm a sole proprietor of a private sanctuary for the western boreal wood frog.
          When I am not tending to my toads I'm drink' black coffee, fly' the flannel and waiting for records to arrive in the mail.

              John, I think you have the most interesting job on the forum by a country mile. Feel free to share more.

                FAWK!!!!

                My long description was nuked 😠

                In a nutshell, it's not a job.
                I advocate for their protection on my property from over zelious neighbors who wish to develop adjoining land.
                The wood frog is fairly common but its environment and habitats are protected.
                From my research the concentration levels I have never been recorded, normally an army or two is concidered huge, on my property I would estimate several regiments.  In the height of their breeding season their singing can be defining and it is amazing!

                  I can imagine that being a difficult situation. Good on you!

                      How's it going everybody?  I bought my first pair of Iron Heart jeans in early August this year, IH 634S-B's to ne exact. I have given them some serious asswhop in the 2.5 months I have owned them, I'm an aircraft mechanic that does mainly sheet metal work and l always end up with aluminum shavings and dust embedded in my jeans. Needless to say, working in gross smelly airplanes have rendered my 634S-B's super smelly so I decided to give them a premature wash due to the funk they developed working inside some really gross airplanes. I took a few photos of them before I threw them in the wash so here they are, if I can get them uploaded.

                      Once they are out of the wash and dried, I'll post up some more photos.  All I can say is that these are the best quality jeans I have ever worn.

                      Waiting for my wallet to allow me to purchase the 634-XHS

                          Yea, rolling around on aluminum drill shavings all day are giving these jeans a run for their money.

                                There's nothing premature about washing jeans that smell disgusting.  Don't feel like you have to wear jeans for X number of months before washing.  You won't "ruin" them.  If anything, you'll make them last longer and get to enjoy them more. Certainly other people will enjoy being around you more if they're clean(ish).

                                    Hello all, new member check in.. I've enjoyed reading the forum the past few weeks,  so I figured I'd sneak in now. I'll probably continue to read more than post, but you never know. Keep up the good work.
