    So what color belt and shoes do you wear with the following trousers:

    The colors I wear in order of preference.
    Black ( black, chili brown, tan)
    Dark grey (Black,cordovan)
    Navy (cordovan)
    Medium grey (cordovan, black)

    Also when I wear my black and cordovan salddle shoes should I wear a black or cordovan belt? I like the cordovan belt, but my wife says black.

    Have you ever seen an avid marathon runner not look like a sick person. At least the most competitive ones. That's not an ideal health status.

    Like almost everything, running is best practiced in moderation. I mean, running 26 miles is not a normal human activity. The first guy to do it dropped dead, after all. Why the second guy took it up is beyond me. The two friends my age who were mega-runners and marathoners have each had to have their knees replaced with mechanical devices.

    Me, I never ran enough, but I could see the benefits of daily short runs and the appeal of a 10K perhaps. But Marathons have always seemed like self abuse to me. And as impressive as Triathletes can be in their accomplishments, I've always thought that Ironmen needed their heads examined.

    once per year, and only as a motivation to stay fit.

    for me it was

    2010 vegas marathon
    2011: chicago marathon
    3 weeks from today: new york
    2013: dublin

    its better to be old and need knee replacement than heart replacement. plus, like i every situation, i know what i am doing more than the rest of the world. so i will not need new knees.

    cant anyone answer supa, that guy is trying to solve the shoe/pant match problem?
  5. red55 curmudgeon

    What problem?
  6. martin Well-Known Member

    Yeah I do feel like black pants need black shoes and any other combo can be considered what e Italians call "spezzaturra", a purposeful nonchalance.
  7. Cajun Sensation I'm kind of a big deal

    I always drank shit like Miller Lite and Bud Light and Coors Light. I drank alot of them. I drank them b/c that's all I was ever exposed to. As I grew older and traveled the World (country), I realized that those beers are shit beers and that craft beers are much better and I acquired a taste for the craft beers that I previously thought of as strong and bitter.

    I enjoy craft beers and I have gained weight.

    I think I need to kick it back down to Miller Lite.

    i went through a craft beer phase as well. now i have tried everything on earth and realize that my favorite by a wide margin is guinness. it is significantly better than any other beer.

    i am not that classy and still enjoy cold cans of coors lite as well, particularly with football.

    question: if you can only drink one beer for the rest of your life, what is it?
  9. KyleK See you at the Box!

    Coors Lite

    Me too. I drink the nicer beers but light beers are less heavy and allow me to drink more because of hte lower alcohol content. I'm at a point in my life where I don't want to get rip roaring drunk but still enjoy drinking. Coors Lite is my go to having just surpassed Miller Lite for two reasons. First is the insulting marketing campaign by miller lite trying to tell me the vortex bottle will spin and aerate my beer as it comes out. So ridiculous. Secondly are the blue bars on the coors lite. Greatest thing ever. Bud Light tastes liek bitter water and I avoid drinking it as much as possible.
