Picked up this JWN 100% Cashmere by Zegna SC SZ 44 today. Pretty cool. Can you pattern experts tell me what it is? available

Ya'll think DM7 is hot **** what with his finding Phil Jackson and Cedric the Entertainer's clothes?

Well, I'm not Catholic but......

BAM

That's right. The motherfkn Pope's green Polo coords.






There was a Pope Pierce, right?.

Only one notable find today. Somehow this made it to half off week at one of my semi-frequent stops. Excellent shape. Gorgeous octagon MOP buttons.

So that's what the Pope wears under his robe!

I'm just worried somebody who works in admissions at a college you apply to will find your SF posts. Then it's Cal State - SF for you.

Sometimes, you just gotta say, What the heck. Make your move....

ha I know the feeling. A similar thing: there's at least one local guy going through the records that always leaves a stack of flyers for the record show that happens every few months. A sort of "you won't know what you missed till you come by and buy it from me at a higher price"

Ugh, I know what you mean. I've seen it at thrift stores all over the metro area. Wonder if it's just one guy....

I think you're a bit mistaken there. That really says Pepe Pierce.

Somehow I don't see that happening maybe I won't get into Harvard but I sure as
Hell can do better than sf state, also did you guys know Oxford won't look at your grades of you got over a 2100 on the sat but the damn admissions already closed!

But there's always a chance that a don will come across a post about hallucinogens! I would suggest keeping that stuff off the public web, if I were you, Ian.

Since when do the SATs go over 1600? Did they add more questions or something?

But you don't want to go to Oxford, you want to go to Oxxford.

yeah, they have a science section (i think) another section and it is another 800 points. So 2400 total. I guess a 2100 is the equivalent of a 1400.

There are three sections worth 800 points each now. Colleges are often only interested in the math and critical reading score, so adding those two gives the score out of 1600. Counting the writing section obviously will give you your score out of 2400.

The ACT is the one with a science section. It requires no actual knowledge of science, you just have to be able to decipher charts and graphs.
