@DougNg:

Thanks for the info, I'm thinking of getting a new MacBook in the next year. Not because I have to, because I'm a nerd

I'm looking to grab an air in the next year myself.  Got a 17inch pro two years ago and I love it, it's just a pain in the ass to haul around.

@Seul:

I thought your flooring was cracked… Feckin eejit strikes again... 

Nope, floor is good.  I dropped the camera outside on the concrete while I was taking some pics of my new pair for the HWDC-2.  I was doing a standing denim shot when the breeze picked up.  I grabbed for the jeans, and dropped the camera in the process.  Brilliant move- save the jeans that would be completely unharmed, at the expense of the delicate piece of electronics.

Camera still works, so at least it's not a real loss, just an ugly annoyance.

Woah woah woah woah sweet child o' mine…... you know what jeans you're going to use  ???

[Seul]

Spill the fuckin beans already Houston…

Just arrived Friday, and yesterday was Benjamin's birthday party and the laptop crash, so yeah, I was busy.  Sorry.

I went with the Studio D'Artisan X's-33 I PM'd you about a while back, Mega.  Really interesting denim on those things.

Interesting choice Chris

[Chris]

Yeah, I wanted something unique, and they are definitely that.

damn, just had to go to BIG to check´em out…really interesting denim and i´m really looking forward to their fading potential and how they´ll hold up over time! great choice sir...

[Seul]

Great choice… Can't wait to see these stand out from all the 25 oz madness...

Nice Chris. I heard NEP weave denim (with the little white looking balls on it) is only done by loom masters because its hard to do.

[Chris]

I'd never heard of neps before seeing this pair, but from what little I read about them, the textile industry tries to eliminate them and considers them serious fabric flaws.  Who knows, maybe my jeans will disintegrate in 6 months of wear.  But that's going to be part of the fun, right?

Oh, and to make this a properly ranty post, I broke something else today- this time it was the toilet seat.  Cheap plastic hinge snapped, so now the lid and the seat are no longer connected and the whole thing is barely attached to the commode.  I'm having one hell of a weekend.

[Finn666]

couldn't make it to classes today. roads are closed cuz of snow and freezing rain!
now it's all about spending time on the couch, watching the first season of The Wire (thx Eli!)…too fucking bad

[Seul]

Enjoy it you fucker… I've started season 4 again... Which means 2 and 3 are available, just let me know when...

I have to work 5 days in a row, which isn't bad but the hours are horrible... Oh well... Should be grateful to hàve work right?..

[Finn666]

well i´m 3/4 done with season one already…just watched 4 episodes this morning

[Seul]

Right… I'll have 'm out tomorrow...

[Finn666]

@Seul:

good boy

[Seul]

Scratch that… I'll have 'm out in a bit...

[emceeQ]

Can't wait to see what that denim does Chris.  Really glad someone will be competing with them

On a ranty note.  After a string of interviews, and landing an ideal internship for the summer I got a call this morning saying that the internship program was cancelled. Back to square fucking one, and really late in the game at this point.  UGH…

[Giles]

That is a major pisser Mike.  Good luck…...

[emceeQ]

Really is, and thanks G.  Gonna have a stiff drink when I get home tonight, and then figure out what my plan is gonna be
