@Oaktavia Wanted to post this as a reply in the 2023 WAYWT thread but it was locked. Anyway great minds think alike. Vest courtesy of Ortega’s Weaving Shop in CHIMAYO,NM.

As promised,my attempt at IH Triple Denim. Back in Black,Black,Black!

Out in the wild today. Summit of Cadillac Mountain/Acadia National Park. IHSH-295BB,IH55521S-OD

@AdamJ Can’t thank you enough for bringing the shirt to switch. Fit is perfect. And for the rest of you. Yes I did see Alex,AJ and Haraki,yes I did see Fall/Winter 24, all I can say is that we’re all in a lot of trouble!

Here ya go.

Thirteen consecutive years on the IH Forum as of today. While the cast of characters has changed,over the years,the vibe on The Forum has not. As time goes on I appreciate it more and more.

Been on a real B&W kick lately.

Over the years,from time to time,Forum Members have gotten IH gear to wear/fade and document. While there have been quite a few who did really great jobs at fading,I don’t think anyone has done as good a job at documenting as @Oaktavia. Being an artist he has an innate sense of composition,and it shows whenever he posts updates on his progress. Also his willingness to answer,and be knowledgeable about every aspect of the process,has substantially raised the bar of IH Sample fading. The other guy whose name I can’t totally remember,and who did a really great job,might have been a landscaper or something like that. He worked outside spitfiredealer I think was his username.

Nothing like a well worn,very comfortable,UHF to keep you nice and warm on a rainy day walking around in Bar Harbor,Main.

@GraemeE Never met him.

A Red W enamel pin would be cool and that way anyone who wants a Red W on their jacket could have one.

@mclaincausey This is pretty interesting.

So many of these games come down to someone making a mistake. How does Pete Carroll not just hand the ball off to Marshawn Lynch,after he had just ran the ball down to the 2 yard line. He thought he was slick,but Malcom Butler had practiced that when they line up like that,It's a pass,and the rest is history. Steve Spagnola even said in interviews he never understood why The Ravens stopped running the ball. Lamar did miss a couple of throws,they had a fumble,and lo and behold you get beat by a seemingly inferior team.

@SKT While I never once thought that The Chiefs were the best team in the NFL,I never stopped thinking that they were the best coached team in the NFL. Unless you can blow them out or get a big early lead,you have to play 60 minutes of mistake free football. If the Chiefs beat Texas,then the AFC Championship game should be epic.

There were a few times this season when I thought that The Ravens were the best team in the NFL,and then they’d go out and loose to a last place team. They were the only team that really impressed me this weekend. That was the way I thought their offense would be all season. I don’t know that there’s a defense that can stop their rushing attack.

@mclaincausey said in American Football (NFL):

I feel bad for Darnold. Just hemorrhaged money these last several starts. I don’t know who can get that brilliant receiver corps to the promised land but doesn’t seem to be him. Horrendous pocket awareness last night.

I’m not disagreeing with anything you said,but what happened to the O.Line these last 2 starts. That was really ugly. Early on I said to my wife he looks like a deer in the headlights.

@mclaincausey Thank you,flat out great. There's a really interesting book that I think you might enjoy. It's called Sympathy For The Drummer,Why Charlie Watts matters. Although it focuses primarily on Charlie Watts,it gives you an appreciation of why so many drummers were important and critical to their band's success. Tommy Ramone being one of them.

@mclaincausey We're definitely on the same page today, as I thought what a great teacher he would've been or possibly was. His primary motivation in doing what he does is the groove that will ultimately make you tap your foot. He's not being complex just for complexity's sake.

@Nocturama During the pandemic,the running joke was if you want to be protected from Covid just wear a JETS jersey,and you won't catch anything. I think at this point JETS stands for Just End The Season!
