Was a fairly interesting game though. Wasn't "one for the ages" but a good game. Controversy (early offside), some killer saves by rsa's keeper, rsa scoring the first goal and the ensuing joy/celebration, desmond tutu's dance, late equalizer, and good chances by each team down the stretch to win it. It wasn't 2 of the elite teams and talents playing but that's not the only requirement for enjoyment and was still a fine match. I've seen much worse/boring games involving better talent

It's a shame regular soccer can't be as exciting as international play all the time.

The answer, as usual, is... yes and no.

Certain minor alterations - shortening the sleeves (as long as you can do it from the sleeve end) taking in the sides, are pretty basic, something pretty much any place can do. However, I would never recommend someone get a suit online when they have access to good shopping and a decent tailor, because there are important things that are nearly impossible to get right without actually trying on a suit, such as the pitch of the sleeve and are nearly impossible to alter properly.

This is for regularly shaped/sized people. Xeno is a midget - sorry, Little Person - so his issues are probably not issues for most.

I really had hoped Henri would have made more happen during his minutes of the URA -v- FRA game.



--- If we move to this small town (761 people) like we might, i am going to find all kinds of rad workwear in the nearby towns' St. Vincent DePaul and Goodwill.

Quoting these from a semi-DT:

This is wrong bro. If you're a bigger dude you need a higher rise, in general.

Anyone know who makes some tight, high-wasted black jeans? no bootcut either.

That anime guy's jeans look like the kind of fit you'd get with some tight levis, and I know they make 'em in black. Get 501's but don't size up in the waist if you want that kind of fit with a high rise.

...my lord, I'm critiquing the fit of a fictional character. I need a stiff drink.

Nudie High Kais?

I never got into the whole super-high leather jacket thing, for the same reason I'm not too into the double rider: it's too costumey for me. It can definitely work for some people, though.

I support the idea of Eason picking up the McNairy digital camo trousers from Epaulet and swaggerjacking guile
