Thanks. I've still got a few # I plan to take off by year's end, but just another 10'ish. I figure 200-205 is not a bad weight for a middle aged dood with my natural build.

On his order sheet, he has 9 body profiles, with 9 being the fattest. He had me as a 7 and now I'm a 2-3.

Good for you, Piob. Welcome to the Skinny Club!

It'll be a while until Conne joins us if ever.

Wow. That's a pretty drastic change in profile. Again, kudos. Funny enough, I was fat in middle school and didn't thin out until late in high school. When I started college I was fitted for my first blazer, the tailor said - oh, we'll have to take in the sides a bit...and I walked on clouds for a month afterward.

No worry of me ever being "skinny" but thanks for the thought. Still a 46 jacket (eat your heart out Kunk!)

I got a jacket in the mail yesterday and I opened it up and it had one of those very distinct smells that recalls a memory. It smelled exactly like the perfume that my best friends' mom always wore from when I was in grade school.

Congrats, Piobaire. That's an awesome accomplishment, and I'm sure you did it in style.

Going to see crystal castles last night. Hopefully it is good times (been to a lot of concerts...but 99% of them involve a group of people with real instruments so I dunno what to expect beyond something like a half-DJ set with live vocals)

city championship in chess today with my son. he won 5 out of 5 games - first time, and most probably the last time it will happen. what they do is separate the top 10 players into their own mini-league, and my son was in the other group. if he had done a little better earlier in the season, he would have been in the top grouping and would have probably only have won a couple of games. he has had years when he has been in the top grouping, and that will probably happen next year, as he was number one this year in the lower grouping. but, the important thing is that he stayed focused and did well and enjoyed himself.
