        someday I'd like to see this denim el Dorado

        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
        Well, I have others.

          @steelworker I’m afraid of seeing it…might not ever be the same again and my wallet definitely wouldn’t be able to handle it. 🙂

                  I went to vote today for local elections in the town hall building in Pineville. They have a history of Pineville, One of the items was that Cone Mills had a plant here which opened in 1948 with 500 employees. It closed in 1991.

                  Didn't realize they had multiple plants! I know Imogene and Willie here in Nashville got a bunch of fabric from them a few years ago and did some limited jeans with them in certain cuts. I have a few of them, and they are some of my go-to summer jams (lightweight, full of holes, stretchy)

                          Just learned this today on Reddit

                          “Caveat emptor” - Latin for “let the buyer beware.”

                          Context it was used in: Someone giving someone else advice on something though they didn’t have the most experience in.

                            Apparently the dimensions of a parcel can change during transit. I’m currently tracking a Very Important Parcel (most of you can guess what it is) and it went from 60x60x120cm to a more plausible 38x27x21cm somewhere between Bodø and Fauske.

                                Learned this month or 2 back but didn’t know about this thread. But Reno Nevada is technically more west coast(further west) than Los Angeles on a map. Ive lived in California for 18yrs, been to LA a lot and Reno few times that blew my mind.

                                  I had no idea what birds get up to when they’re not flying around or decorating cars, or that this was the subject of academic research. I promise I didn’t go looking for this - it was being plugged on LinkedIn by an institution I attended!

                                    Today I learned it is not tomorrow, which i thought it was when i woke up today thanks to my schedule this week. Don't you hate when you think tomorrow's friday, but it's not yet thursday? devastating.

                                          In all fairness, in one of my Ecology classes, the professor’s area of expertise was the reproductive habits of tidal zone aquatic life.

                                          How one goes about deciding that is one’s lifelong passion is not quite clear…
