    Chelsea Boot Advice

    After searching the internet I am still in need of a little advice. I am looking for a classic Chelsea boot in darker brown. I wear a size 10.5 C in the Alden Unlined Chukka, so I would prefer to find a Chelsea boot that comes in widths. Unfortunately Alden or Allen Edmonds does not make the...

    Altering a 41L into a 40L

    Can it be done? I have a very good tailor here in Atlanta, but the blazer is on Sierra Trading Post and before I buy it and take it to the him I would like to know if it is even feasible. Granted STP does have a very good return policy, so if my tailor looks at it and says no way I can always...

    Interview advised "business casual" in invite e-mail - suit overkill?

    I agree with the post for wearing a blazer and slacks. If you want the belt and suspenders approach put a tie in you inside pocket just in case. Given that they said specifically not to wear a suit I would not. Good luck on your interview. I hope it works out.

    Shoe brands for narrow feet?

    I wear an 11B. Alden and Allen Edmonds might be your best options. Unfortunately in the sub $400, but still with quality construction (their styling has been greatly debated) these two are the best options I have found. As many have said you can get very good deals on AE on Ebay. for reference...

    Reds under $15

    Not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but Nero d'Avola is a solid choice. Usually between $12 - 15 many have good spicy kick to it.

    Do you enjoy being married?

    Marriage was the best thing to ever happened to me. To answer a few of the previous questions in the thread - I can't imagine the grief and pain of being a widower. Not something I ever want to go through. As for marriage advice - my wife actually gave a good friend of mine some great advice...

    Places to eat in downtown Atlanta

    going to have to give mary Mac's tea room a second vote. Great southern food. A second spot to hit up for BBQ would be Fox Bros BBQ. Not too far from Downtown. You could even take marta there. it is only a short walk from the station on Dekalb ave ( i can't remember the name).

    Best Hip Hop Group Ever

    tribe called quest great entertainers, and their songs run the gammut from social commentary to just fun. "I left my wallet in El segundo" is a cool song. Out of you list though I would have to choose the Wu

    Places to eat in downtown Atlanta

    I would suggest getting on Marta riding up to 15th. there is a really good thai place there in Colony Square called Tamarind Seed. also across the street there is a solid afterwork drink place called Tap. On 7th street a really good Italian place called Ecco. Moral of the story leave downtown...

    If you are still looking for a card look at the AMEX Starwoods card it has no monthly fees and solid rewards. A good friend worked for Amex corporate and said it was the best value.

    A top coat to keep me warm

    If you decide to go the Jos A Bank route two things: - Never buy from JAB unless it is on a deep discount as they have huge sales all the time - Once it is on sale ask if they have any additional coupons. They usually do and will let you use the coupon. Might save you another $25 - $50. I did...

    How much in student loan do you owe?

    a lot, fortunately I have a good job (for now) and low expenses. This economy is making going back to school and taking on a lot of debt a risky proposition. I am glad I got the MBA, but the debt I have is scary.

    Anyone writing or has just written the GMAT?

    Took Princeton Review. Worth it to me got my score up to where I felt it needed to be. The course's biggest benefit was that it was a motivator to study and prepare, and yes the math is all highschool math. The key to the test is timing and shortcuts, which PR teaches. All this can be...

    family stuff in DC

    I wondered about the rec as well, but every child matures differently. Not sure it would have been good for me at 10 but my sister could have handled/learned from it. Heck, I can barely handle it now. The museum due to the fact that it gears it self to both adults and students makes it even more...

    family stuff in DC

    2 Amy's Pizza is really solid, although busy so if you have hungry kids it might be an issue. The Spy museum is pretty cool. off the main mall area there is a Holocaust museum- a moving place to go see. They made it so adults and kids can attempt to relate to the subject. I absolutely love DC...
