The major difficulty, based upon rise, overall cut, price, where made, what of etc.  No wonder I like my Levis chinos so much.  A headache.

if someone would just start a company that sold decent stuff and not bow to the sweatshop temptation, theyd make a killing. everyone, everywhere complains about it and its the one thing they refuse to do. those boutique ACL/albam/engineered levis clothes dont need to cost that much. theyre just pieces of frigging cloth sewn together.  someone, somewhere can do the same thing, charge what the mall stores do, or a slightly, sanely higher price, and still make plenty of cash. pointlessly ranting here, but it kills me.

with that said, i saw a shirt there in a pattern ive been looking for, for 15 bucks and out came the wallet. spineless consumer feeds spineless corporation. back when grandad was working, when meat butchered outside of the city in sweatshops came in, theyd break the fucking windows and slash the tires. the driver would be lucky not to have his ass kicked. what the hell has happened to this country?

and a crying shame it is.

it was alright. i saw it on the recommendation of my soul brother, Carl, who explained "this Be a Film all about your Proud-Ass Culture, Mac Man." we arent quite as scummy here as they are in boston/hells Giant vibrator, however,by a long shot.

The nicholson character is based on whitey bulger, who was apparently far more interesting in real life-a clean cut, teetotal, psychopath,rather than nicholson's stereotypical flashy, hedonistic portrayal.  he was rumored to be hiding in the electricians hall here, i remember them searching the place.
