        I always bitch about having to wear a safety harness and dual retractable lanyard. They are very heavy and uncomfortable. But mine saved me from about a 30 foot fall today. 😅

        I fell about 2 feet instead and got a sweet bruise on my butt. It kind of put me in a good mood though. It made me laugh at least.

            I've fallen a couple times from about half as high and always managed to grab something on the way down. The worst fall I I ever had without a harness was when I was putting vinyl siding on the garage and a bee flew up the back of my shirt and the ladder tipped over and hit a retaining wall on the way down, flinging me to the ground like a catapult. I just got a sprained wrist. Needless to say, I got even with those bees… with lots of gasoline and a match. 🤪

              I hate ladder falls… I've had three in my life, never seriously injured but I'm always shaken up for 24 hours afterwards.

              Good lad for gearing up properly.

                This is one of those places you have to always have a harness on even to just be up on a 4' scaffold. All the scaffolds are yellow tagged. So gearing up is mandatory.

                    😃 they were these bumblebees. I accidentally disturbed their nest and they had been attacking me all week. My first ex-wife thought it was funny too. She came out and laughed her ass off because I was lying on the ground moaning in pain. 😂

                      Once had a bee fly into my motorcycle helmet and sting me. I wasn’t going that fast,so I could pull over, and didn’t crash. Had a nasty welt from where it stung me.

                        Ha, I zipped a bee up into my motorcycle gear once.  It wasn't a full suit but the pants were zipped to the jacket.  Luckily it stung me before I actually started riding, was just about to leg up when I felt something around my ribs and it stung me while I was feeling around trying to figure out what it was.  Ended up being more funny than anything else.

                              I wanted to simply give a little shoutout to @Alex and the team behind Sonders Supplies for their dedication to bringing more and more Japanese companies to the forefront. What's all the more impressive to me is the different shades of Americana that are influencing these companies. As someone who has been into the "denim scene" for for than 16 years now, it is refreshing to see grown up takes of California street, skate, and car culture really be re-imagined by these craftsman.

                              Thank you for taking the risk to try something new. Someone had to do it, and I'm proud it was you guys.

                                    Looks like you guys are off to a great start @Alex. I’m particularly pleased that you’re working with Trophy as they are an awesome brand and Egawa-San is a very cool dude.

                                          Really quite specific love to the glorious, kind, generous maniac we all know and love as @Filthy

                                          I commented on his SE bag a while back (I used to have one and Hot Ingrid binned it by mistake), and he offered to post me his free of charge. He also let me know there was a little surprise included. It wasn’t so little.

                                          A while back Mike had showed off a badass ring that seriously appealed to 18 year old me. I said as much. This was my surprise. Damn Mike, I’m chuffed, delighted and seriously humbled. Thank you so much.
