I have 4 Aero Highwayman. I am 5'8", weight 160. I normally wear a size 40. I have 2 size 40 jackets, a size 42, and a size 38. The jackets that fit me perfectly are the 2 size 40 labeled jackets. The size 42 was too large, so I had to draw it in by shrinking it some. The size 38 jacket I...

This is my opinion. Meaning no opinion, until you show me a picture with the shirt tucked in. I need to see where the beltline is.

I sent you an email.

The movie has been out since Dec 14th and it is still leading at the box office. Many, like myself, have seen it more than once. Its a case where fan appreciation is higher than the critic reviewers.

I had never read the Hobbit (nor the Lord of the Rings), but knew of the story line, based on the 1978 Rankin-Bass cartoonized version of the story. I decided to read the Hobbit a week before the movie came out. The movie is getting a lot of criticism that I think is based on peoples...

Old pics gone, here are the new ones
