thanks, will scour the internet for images of romeos to see if I like them.  The snake oil dudes took some good damn pictures & the shape just looks a bit "neater"

Mega since it's for Mini I am pm'ing you in 3, 2,

Got the first two estimates back on the baking steel project. The first was just over $900 and the second was considerably more. Still a couple to come in yet.

Got about 4 in flight on my side too, we shall see!

[jdl1279]

I still haven't gotten the one from my friend. So I'm hoping a favor comes through and he can undercut the rest. Gonna call him tonight to see where we are.

I'll make a thread for this, but I have some quotes coming back as well.

Where can I re-watch the video which happened in IHHQ Japan where many bikers came into the store and grabbed a few pair of jeans?

I remembered seeing the video some time back and it's the IH anniversary day sale if I remember correctly.

I'm running a fever, should I have a post dinner gin and tonic later tonight? I really want one..

[mclaincausey]

Have you ever had a hot toddy? So great for when you're sick. I make mine with good oolong tea, orange bitters, a little simple, and a lot of whiskey.

[Peter]

I have not, but it sounds like it would hit the spot! Kinda want one now haha.. Unfortunately I've only got the ingredients for gin and tonic at home. I guess one won't hurt.

If you have a fever, I highly suggest eating tons of strong cheese, and drinking lotsa liquor… You won't get a hangover, but you'll have some crazy ass dreams... Enjoy the ride...

Can't agree with this advice. Alcohol is not good for the immune system. Get some sleep and drink lots of fluids.

[Max Power]

^best advice. But my grandma vowed on drinking warm beer…up to you, I guess.

@seanocono:

Get some sleep and drink lots of fluids.

Exactly…

[Peter]

Meh, been sleeping all day. I opted for one gin and tonic, and feel slightly better. Hopefully I'll survive!

[mclaincausey]

Alcohol is a decent palliative as long as you don't get carried away and stay hydrated…

I am in the same boat. Felt bad all week but yesterday was the worse day. Today, I feel like I'm on the mend.

Seasons changing as root-cause of sickness??

[Anesthetist]

Dunno, probably more my 5 year old petri dish

With all of the love for quality durable goods around here, I thought this would be a good area to put this forward and gauge possible desire. We all love heirloom pieces, from denim we're willing to put extra into for repairs to boots that can be completely rebuilt from the ground up.

Sneakers however have been one of my least favorite areas, as for the most part, they are an item that are considered disposable. Made to be essentially worn through and replaced semi frequently.

This has actually kept me from purchasing sneakers unless I can get them at an absolute steal. This has also led me to look at design and evaluate the viability of a rebuildable option.

In my search I find such could certainly be achieved but am curious if such might peak others interest as well? If there were such products available are there certain options functionally or aesthetically that would put such over into the must have category?

I have my own ideas on the topic and truly am considering trying to create something that fits this category. I'm just trying to get a feel for what a potential audience would look for.
