I recently heard Sen. Cory Booker on MSNBC talking about New Year’s Resolutions. One of the things he mentioned was not getting caught up in Fast Fashion. Fast Fashion is defined as inexpensive clothing produced rapidly by mass market retailers in response to the latest trends. I see it much differently. I don’t mean justContinue reading “Fast Fashion”

I’m kinda glad I did not Blog much or at all in December. December was an angry month for me but something I needed to go through. My business is an intangible service and I’m a relationship’s guy not a transactional guy. What this means as it relates to this Blog and this past DecemberContinue reading “First Blog of 2020”

My Sunday was interesting. I am the volunteer lawyer for my local mountain biking club. Our president, who is kind of a visionary (also an executive chef), put on an event at a local trail where he invited other mtn bike club leaders, land managers and anyone else who was interested in influencing the directionContinue reading “Monday Blog”

I did it again, I bit. A few weeks ago, while sitting around a friend’s dock after a lovely dinner and a few scotches, I was playing with my phone while the conversation was going on around me. An ad popped up for inexpensive selvedge jeans ($98-$128 price range) from an L.A. Company called BraveContinue reading “Denim heads part deux (Dad jeans, selvedge and how not to over think it)”

I had an interesting experience in Mediation yesterday that was interesting, relevant to my last blog and kind of an eye-opener. In my law practice, I deal with a scenario quite often where I represent a woman who has a child or children with a narcissistic, controlling man. Sometimes they were married and other timesContinue reading “Dominance Games part deux”

Black Jeans-I recently bought and soaked a new pair of 501 STF’s that I thought were dark indigo and even wore them once, before I noticed they weren’t a very dark blue but actually black. Full Disclosure-I am color blind mostly reds, for example, I cannot see the difference between blue and purple or darkContinue reading “Friday blog (today is kind of random)”

I have been somewhat of a clothes horse since I was a teen aged, now somewhat a youthful looking guy in my mid 50’s (my closest celebrity doppelgänger is Joe Scarborough). In a certain sense, being older frees you up to not jump on to every trend and hopefully age has given you the selfContinue reading “Aloha shirts and issues (some sartorial rules to live by for the middle aged man)”

Confession time, I am a recovering denim head. What’s a denim head you say? A denim head is a guy or gal who is into raw denim, often shrink to fit that fade naturally, often with selvedge. Before the 1940s, all Denim was shrink to fit which meant that every new pair of jeans wouldContinue reading “Denim heads”

It’s been awhile but there used to be a show called “Everyone Loves Raymond”. The main character, Raymond, played by actor Ray Romano, was a somewhat bumbling likeable guy who was married to a strong confident woman. Raymond was always finding himself in situations where his own bad choices resulted in his wife both rescuingContinue reading “Raymond”

The World Is Too Much With Us By William Wordsworth The world is too much with us; late and soon, Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers;— Little we see in Nature that is ours; We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon; TheContinue reading “My First Blog Post”
