IT'S Getting COLD---HERE IS THE CANADA GOOSE MENS LANGFORD PARKA

Rev

have that jacket...has nine pockets if you need to stash lots of stuff. Warm...like the draw string. However I prefer,my lodge hoody. My sister sells them so she gets me the ones I like. Same with any other out doors gear. 

I did not buy it.

It is not really a show jacket even if this is cut well.  It is meant for the outdoors. All of Canada goose stuff are for extreme weather. I do not think my sister makes much on them even though she sells quite a number of them. The company has a strict rule as to pricing and they would quit selling to you if you discount it. I often advised her to dump them but she thinks it affords a level of provenance that kids like. It is popular so she sells them to those like your student comes in to buy the jacket and pick up other stuff.

MENS SHOES: So How do you guys like your shoes--With or without laces ?

ANOTHER COLD DAY IN NEW YORK(31F/-1C)---BURBERRY SCARVES

* No matter how warm the Canada Goose parka coats may be---you still need scarves in freezing weather---necks need to be warm.

* By the way, the Farmer's Almanac may be right----it said this coming winter will be bitterly cold.

* We're still in the Fall and it's FREEZING.

Rev

That's a very nice present! And I like that shade/color better that this Burberry Camel check:

Rev

Forget the fragrance, Simon Baker is a dish!

* Is he really "a dish" ?

* The Rev likes your lingo.

* For those of you who never heard the term "dish"---Riya is saying, Simon Baker is a sexually attractive man.

* Awesome combination for a man:

DISH + RIGHT FRAGRANCE = TURN ON FOR WOMEN.

Rev

chami:

When it comes to shopping it looks like your girls can be described as refined, cosmopolitan, cultured and suave.

* If the 25 year old is done with college and is now a professional----then she may very well be wearing this Burberry London coat:

NICE & ELEGANT.

Rev

PS. I said I liked the shade scarf you got better than the Camel check I posted----that camel check shade is common place----the shade you got(pink, grey, etc) is more sublime.

Today is Friday the 13th---it cold no rass---here in New York City it's 27F or -3C. And so a very warm pair of gloves is highly recommended. Check these out:

* Forget about leather gloves---on days like today(27F/-3C)----your fingers still freeze in leather gloves.

* Those uggs gloves are incredibly warm.

Rev

These uggs are ugly.  More suitable for the Frozen Tundra. 

* So like Riya you are another UGGs hater, huh Observer ?

* Listen! When you live in a freezer---it's warmed up a bit in NY but still freezing(30F/-1C)---when you live in freezing conditions you appreciate warmth and comfort and don't give a hoot whether uggs are ugly---you just wear them.

Rev

So Simon would be a Bakers dish....like tennis roll?

i used to look at the Mentalist regularly until they they start that nonsense about Red John.

Rev

Hehehehehehe! This is one for the books

Rev probably ran away with the spoon with this one

Rev, I need some ideas for Christmas, birthday and graduation gifts for a young man about to graduate with an engineering degree.  Nothing seems to please these whiz kids. 

The whole Red John saga was put to rest last season. It was tiring indeed. Thank goodness he was easy on the eye so it made watching worthwhile.  He's now with the FBI and not the CBI

Observer:

This is the best $10 bucks you'll ever spend---and the best present you can give to a fastidious/hard to please graduate:

It is a practical present---which will be much appreciated by the receiver down the road---they'll keep it for years--maybe forever.

Here is some of the wisdom shared by the author:

The book is divided into chapters on evaluating, organizing and consolidating student loans, as well as budgeting not only for now but for the future. One chapter is devoted to "debt meets relationship" and what happens when you marry and mingle finances. Another discusses cars, commutes and other financial realities of daily, working life. And a third delves into budgeting for the current, economically-challenged age: layoffs, pay cuts and career changes.

2. If you want to spend more than 10 bucks---you can throw in along with the book  that shaving kit from the ART OF SHAVING---it's about $200 bucks---every guy shaves.

Rev

I have to say I like his attitude, especially being annoying or even insulting to authority. I have to try out that speeding ticket argument of his against a cop one day. I think I may give his show a try again..yes, he is easy on the eye, even mine

LEMME INTRODUCE YOU FOLKS TO PEPPERMINT OIL

* There is something about the peppermint aroma that is magical.

* Actually the peppermint aroma stimulates the flow of dopamine in the brain---and that makes you feel refreshed and reinvigorated---there is also a romantic feel---but that's another thread.

* Lemme be blunt--show me a man or woman who doesn't like the peppermint aroma and I'll show you a sexual zombie----stay a mile away from such a person----they will depress you in a relationship.

* Anyway, every man should have peppermint oil in his collection.

* Why you ask ?

* Listen guys! Every romantic woman on this planet treasures a foot massage.

* Any woman will tell you that a foot massage calms the chaos in her feet and toes---you know how your woman loves to wear those tight ass shoes---that's torturous to the feet and toes.

* Anyway the best oil to use in giving your woman a foot massage is:

* PEPPERMINT OIL

* No need to thank the Rev for sharing these great tidbits with you.

Rev

Peppermint oil smells.

Try warm grapeseed oil with a little essence oil of cinnamon and see what happens.

I love to shop all the time but sometimes I have to hold myself back because of lack of funds.  I follow my spending allowance. It is very easy to get carried away with this Christmas season shopping. Gosh those credit cards are too tempting you know.  They keep extending the limit every year and makes it harder when we have to finally pay the bills. But I feel lively when I shop whether it be for me or for my family or for my friends or my co-workers.

I've never maxed out my credit card, but the secret is to pay it off in full to avoid those ridiculous interest charges,

Credit cards should be used for deferred payment, nothing else.

Here is a secret. If you need a loan to pay off credit credit cards borrow it from yourself, then pay yourself back.

How much of you have an emergency fund set up? Throw $20 in each week, and forget about it. At the end of the year, you will have $1,040.  Build up enough funds, and you could tap into this fund for loans.

The ad says, "You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely take care of it for the next generation."

* That's the Annual Calendar Chronograph Ref. 5960R

* If Ms. Observer wants to spend some serious dollars on buying the hard to please engineering graduate a present---she may want to consider a Patek Philippe.

Rev

Thanks for your efforts, Rev.  He'll love that watch but he'll have to buy it himself when he starts earning the big bucks.  He's my baby all grown up, but rather than spending all that on a watch, I better start saving up for his wedding.    

Let me know how that worked for you

Observer:

* It's your son who is the engineering graduate ?

* CONGRATS TO BOTH YOU AND YOUR SON.

RE: A GRADUATION PRESENT

* He should be getting his Mom a present---she helped put him through college.

* But anyway, you may also want to consider this as a present:

* Get him a Montblanc pen---have it engraved with his name.

* Regarding marriage---please---let the boy enjoy his freedom.lol

Once again, congrats to you and your son---may his future be a bright one.

Rev

Rev, you're so right, he should be giving me presents.  I was his mentor, counsellor, did all his admin. stuff, paid all his tuition, and all he did was attend classes and try to get As, the bum.    He's graduating in 2014, already has everything in creature comforts, and doesn't owe a penny to debtors.  I'll see what he coughs up in the gifts dept. next week since it's my b'day too.   

Happy Birthday to the Christmas girl!

~~~~~

May Santa climb down the chimney on the special night,

and give to you a double delight!  

* HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU OBSERVER.

* How about this for a birthday present from your son:

* That's the black caviar leather 'Super Model' vintage Chanel shoulder bag.

Rev 

Rev, on a scale of 1-10, where do you fall with your foot massaging skills?

Happy Birthday, Observer!

Hope you have something special planned

Country bumpkins!!!! This is a good one

Mira:

* As you know, there is always a joy in giving.

* And when you give anthing with joy---even a massage---that joy is your reward.

ANYWAY:

* The Rev will not rate his skills---you see---when you do kindness you don't rate yourself---rating is an ego thing----but I have to be honest Mira---my ears have heard some glowing praises.

Rev

Check out the back cover of the January 2014 GQ Magazine

That's the Cartier New Collection TANK MC.

Rev

* That is the Louis XIII Remy Martin

* HAPPY BIRTHDAY OBSERVER

* Let's all have a drink and celebrate Ms. Observer's special day.---it's sometime this week---not sure if it is before or after Christmas.

Rev
