Re:I was just reading the catalog... 18 Years, 1 Month ago

I personaly like the "shooting flashes" to be worn below your "english moleskin breeks" or of course the 'shooting stockings", all on page 48 of the sporting gift catalogue. If I ever see someone wearing that

How timely. I swear I was just reading the new Orvis catalog on the throne this morning thinking "there is absolutely nothing about this catalog that appeals to me personally."

For instance, on page 16D they are selling a sweatshirt called Montana Morning, a Titanium Chronograph (that looks a lot like a watch to me), and a VOGT Silver Bison Money Clip for $195 that probably doesn't come with the c-note in the picture. I don't relate to any of those things or whatever message they're trying to sell to me.

Now I know some of you Range Rover driving G-4 types out there probably wonder what in the hell I'm talking about. You'd probably even buy that digital stream thermometer for 29.95 on page 60. I know I sure do like hooking fish out from under your guides' boat as he cuts off my beat up old drift boat and low holes me to try get you on some fish on the Trin.

No. I don't have much in common with Orvis. (packs in a big dip and laughs)

Jeebus guys, who pissed your cereal? A young man asks for help for a school project and you guys use it to take a moment to try to prove your "regular guy" status by no-so-subtly putting down those who shop at a place you don't like. C'mon.....no hijacking threads with your opinions of Orvis shoppers. That's not what he asked for
