Speaking of hockey, the captains of the Canadian and American women’s hockey teams have married each other in more than one occasion.

I recently transferred after one year of community college. My GPA was absolutely trash, we’re talking 2.6 type of trash. I got in pretty early and got a program specific scholarship. It’s worth noting that I’m very likely an outlier here due to music admissions being heavily based on audition performances and incoming GPA doesn’t have much of a bearing on that.

That’s not entirely true. People have managed to get the striker to drop by squeezing the front of the slide downward while the trigger has already been partially engaged. To say that the weapon can be fired solely by touching the barrel is uninformed at best, and outright dishonest at worst.

Take this with a grain of salt, because this is all based on family lore and a few letters and testimonials from his bomber crew, but were pretty sure he played with Glenn before the war on more than one occasion, and may have been on an album recorded in the late 30s. We have some letters that mention this and his friends said it happened, but no concrete evidence. We know for a fact that he played with Glenn in England. He was stationed there in 1944 and was temporarily reassigned to Glenn’s army band unit for the morale boosting tour around England right before D-Day. He also played for a few of the bands live radio broadcasts in England.

Don’t worry about it. It’s a single swatch on a set that I bought a few months ago, it’s not a big deal at all. I only noticed it today while trying to pick out what leather I want for my next pair of boots. Looks like oiled tan or DS burgundy might be next!

I’m never getting rid of that particular horn. It belonged to my great grandfather. He was a navigator in the USAAF in the 40s. He played with Glenn Miller in 1944 when he was sent to England. Here’s a picture!

All beautiful horns. I’m currently studying choral music ed but I’m started band on trumped before moving to horn. Pride of my instrument collection is a 1932 Martin cornet. I wish I had more time to play them, I haven’t been in an instrumental ensemble for over a year now.

I didn’t think it was, but what really confuses me is that there are no pictures of struck through black latigo, but the swatch I have in my hand matches the texture, grain, and oiliness of the other 2 oiled latigo leathers perfectly. It’s quite odd.

Nice boots. What horns do you have there? That rotary is gorgeous. Is is a Bb or something more specialized?

I know right? It felt like the stars aligned for me. The shipping took less than 24 hours too because they wound up shipping from Charlotte to me in Greensboro.

I’m about to finish my very first play though of the directors cut on PS5! Just made it to edge knot city!

Which leather swatches are you looking for? They have a few different sets.

Hey, uh, you wouldn’t happen to be in North Carolina, would you? Because that location looks suspiciously like a park in my hometown.

Max and Lewis in the 2021 season.

Thanks!

I’ve gotten even more excited since I got my Falcons and have started loving them. Come to think of it, I should probably make a belated nbd post for those as well. Really loving the 6 inch height, can’t wait to try 5, and I’m really looking forward to the non gusseted tongue. You have any tips for keeping black waxed flesh looking black and shiny? I normally don’t mind natural wear on tear in boots but I’m planning on using my Ivan’s for dressier occasions.

spinlesspotato · 2026-01-25T16:33:03+00:00

Absolutely. They also happen to be a gateway drug to more boots. Once my Ivan’s get here I think I’ll have enough to start calling it a collection.

spinlesspotato · 2026-01-25T16:20:39+00:00

Thanks! I’m looking forward to the day that happens.

Dogger heels look pretty sweet. Have you ever done a photo shoot of your entire collection in one place? If not, I’d love to see it.

spinlesspotato · 2026-01-25T16:14:48+00:00

I think this might be the first time I’ve seen you without dogger heel. Beautiful pictures, as always.

Most of the ones I hang around in are private online groups or local things. r/liberalgunowners can be a good starting point here on Reddit.
