I am thinking about copping myself a 3-piece suit in my own style cut. Less MC more TOJ. My leather jacket maker is also a tailor for suits and he has a stack of Dormeuil that I yearn for every time I go see him.

I need to buy a new computer more than a new jacket now actually. Got the feeling that the one I built before college isn't going to run Dragon Age very well

Reminds me of that quote in Pattern Recognition describing Tommy Hilfiger: "A simulacra of simulacra of simulacra. A dilute tincture of Ralph Lauren, who had himself diluted the glory days of Brooks Brothers, who themselves had stepped on the product of Jermyn Street and Savile Row ... There must be some Tommy Hilfiger event horizon, beyond which it is impossible to be more derivative, more removed from the source, more devoid of soul."

I just convince myself that if a game can keep me from going out for a weekend then it has more than paid for itself. Modern Warfare 2 will definitely pay for itself

was it cool? paul smith isn't super interesting to me but when he's on he's on. i liked the farmboy runways how he did recently until the suits came out in it. also paul smith himself would be great as an embarassing but well meaning dad.

too bad all googles for paul smith give me **** about paul reed smith. quotes and -reed dont really help either
