Dear Sir:

I previously refrained from commenting on your posts. I now comment.

You heretofore feign poverty, unemployment, etc. Why would you spend $1,700 + on this jacket?

Presuppose, momentarily, that you are Warren Buffet. I iterate. Why would you spend $1,700 + on this jacket?

Please read more postings on this site - especially etutte's amazing archived collection. There you will find the common "thread" amongst this thread.

I respectfully ask that you imbibe"in the spirit of the game" by first cognizing the game.

It's not a bad looking coat, but I'm not sure that it is quite what the London Lounge is on about, and I'm 100% sure that you could pick up something superior from Barbour for a fraction of the price.

well, i found that store on a old Alan Flusser book. and i just thought maybe we could talk about car racing, and it's appropriate costume.
the prettiest cars I've seen, used to race on the thousand miles.
