Out to dinner with my sister wearing IHJ Indigo corduroy.

IHJ I forget the# it's about 10 years old.

A couple more.

IHSH 33T with GAH pocket snaps. I haven't had this shirt on for years, It wasn't quite fitting. Tried it on today, and it fits great. Like reuniting with an old best friend.

Close up of one of the snaps. Not the true color of the shirt

IH- 527J / sort of. My all time favorite jacket.

Pulled out another one that now fits..... An added bonus, IH denim bag by my left arm

Its going to be 100 degrees today, and the next 5 days, so this is the only IH, I will be wearing. Instead of BLING BLING, I'll call it SNAP SNAP.

Having some great friends over for dinner.

It doesn't usually snow in Charlotte. After last weeks ice storms it was a welcome site. It started around 5 AM, still going strong at 9PM last measured around 10 inches. First photo

No problems.

I dont mean to be a party pooper, but a word of caution about a lot of those sites with prices online - many have exorbitant markups for some releases, especially older ones that may have discontinued packaging or bottling, anything considered hard to find, Stores do this too. They're all shameless price gougers, using 'collectors' as their target customer. See it all the time with knives, sneakers, etc. Idk how much you paid for it if you don't recall adding it to your stockpile, but something is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. I see these places selling stuff like Weller Special Reserve or Blanton's single barrel for $150+ and retail is a third of that. It grinds my gears lol

I'm not intending to shoot you down, its just these people fuck up the market for stuff. Imagine someone buying up all of your favorite IH cut and selling it for triple the cost. Manipulating the exclusivity of a product. Isn't this what Rolex does, but entirely in-house? okay, I'm just being obnoxious at this point.....

Just for reference. I started the post with, I thought it was funny. I did not buy it, my other half passed away 6 months ago and left me with a houseful of alcohol. It was in a closet, probably for years. I googled it to see if it was any good, and the price I mentioned is what showed up. I don't think he paid that much for it. I found it amusing, and didn't take it seriously.

I don't know, when I googled it to see if it was good, a company called Liquor Freight has it available at $699.99.

This is kind of funny. Tomorrow is a good friends birthday, I know he likes Tequila, so I went through our liquor stock pile and found this. Milagro Special Barrel Reserve Anejo Tequila.

Then I googled it and saw the retail price.

@hajduk Pierre, It was great seeing you again. Safe travels home.

@twin I missed that you weren't in Baltimore this weekend.

@hajduk Pierre, this is what you were looking for.

And stupidly, I booked an Uber at the end of the Ravens / Saints game. Then I got to the airport and my flight home was delayed 2 hours. And also putting forum names and real names together is a challenge. Nicely done @Matt , It was nice seeing friends and meeting new forum members.
