Well we're supposed to get anywhere between 5 and 10 inches of snow tomorrow. Looks like we're in for a rough winter. Seems like every time we just about finish cleaning up one storm another rolls through.

At least my nice new waterproof Gore-tex jacket came in today so I can stay dry tomorrow.

Now I have to order the bibs to go with it. Right now I'm using Carhartts that are nice, but they're not quite as waterproof as I'd like them to be.

I don't wear bibs to school. They'd get a little warm. Plus they give me a nut wedgie. They only come out on VERY cold days.

Usually they don't make fun of me since they're all in the 5'8-5'10 range while I'm 6'0 or 6'1 and I could probably whup their butts. Except for one kid who is like a Jr. Marine, but he's one of my buddies anyways so it doesn't really matter.

To answer your question: Some people do, but the vast majority don't. My attitude is this: If you like me. Great. If you don't. F*** you too.

Pretty much all the Junior girls at my school are VERY immature and are quite stupid. They thought that not buying gas on one day of the week would make the price go down so I had to explain to them that if you don't buy gas on one day they'll jack up the price on the day after that day because everyone will fuel up that day as they giggled the whole time... I think there are maybe 3 of them out of 20 that I can stand being around for more than 5 minutes. They're the ones that would make idiotic comments about Carhartts.

I've worn them for 24 years and still wear a Carhartt jacket to work every day. Since getting promoted to manager I do not wear the bibs anymore, but do when I am at home and working on my truck.

Real men and hard workers wear Carhartts. If someone makes fun of you because of them, it must be because they are a "Girly Man", you know, those guys that drive 1/2 ton gassers.

Or those that like ricers and can't conclude a discussion about vehicles without mentioning "Nos"

They wear tight jeans and "Volcom" crap.

That's right. I cannot stand them either.

That flannel shirt that I am wearing in my avatar?

Yep, Carhartt.
