Furla may be "cheap", but that name at least has subsistence and history. These American brands keep popping up, cooking up heritage and history out of thin air. It's tiresome. Would you be caught dead wearing Vineyard Vines?

Yes. I am for this Mariners team you speak of.

Is this your blog Peter? http://www.fakekarl.com/2008/04/louis-vuttion.html

Also compelling from this thread is the rift apparently between location "X" vs. Leavenworth. There appears to be animosity, I would love a backgrounder on this. Is it "East Side Envy"? Or "Leavenworth Crag Thugs"?

I was really enjoying the debate whether Hoodsport is a mountain town or not. At sea level, it is hard to make that argument, but then compare it to some town in the Mid-west. The Brothers (and many other mountains) are just up the road. Also, given the location it is pretty much in the shade of the mountains all the time, so its almost always dark and wet.

I don't know about atheist, but I've been to a couple agnostic celebrations of living..they are usually called "wakes". And they involve pouring some out for the passed homies, usually into ones mouth.

Probably need a sash for all the badges. And cool hats.

Nah man, its awesome. Its like the Adult Boyscouts. Merit badges and everything. It serves a number of purposes: some people really go for this type of thing. But others, it really grinds their gears, which are in dire need of grinding. So everyone gets something out of it. I only hope they extend badges to the normal folk instead of just the leaders. And maybe some cool uniforms?

Pete, you should really go for the snowshoe badge. it suits you.

and this coming from the king of critics. he watches, he sees all, and he spits on it all from his throne. you can't escape his all seeing eye, nor his judgement.
