Text of the page (random words):
the lobby perfect i throw a bag in my room and run down to the restaurant a rib eye half a bottle of cabernet and truffle mac and cheese perfect upstairs my bed has a down pad on top of the mattress i lie down on one of the five best beds of my life perfect and i dream i m in a nondescript office waiting room a man walks in and tells me jesus will see you now i get up and follow the man into another nondescript room jesus sits on a metal folding chair in the middle of the room in a white robe with his legs crossed his bare feet in sandals a clip board on his lap i sit down in the empty folding chair across from him and cross my legs the man leaves us in the room alone jesus raises the clip board and starts to read from it but before he does there s a glance at my feet as he lowers the clip board and smiles before we begin i just wanted to comment on your socks they re always so colorful i look at my socks and look up at jesus you like my socks jesus leans forward absolutely i can tell you really make an effort i ask that pleases you jesus yes he says if it pleases you it pleases me and i woke up i lay in bed that night and thought about the dream and realized how calm i was i easily fell back to sleep and the next morning i watched the sun rise and reflected on the dream still unsure of what it meant but smiling to myself as i turned the radio on and headed home

touchstone andy touch touchstone 4 1 63 10 21 14 at the vesper club 1901 2012 andrew k touchstone of the main line sportsman blog died at home suddenly on october 21st i m not sure how but only want to know why and how he put so much into a life andy touch to his friends and wife made a living as a worker s compensation lawyer but he was also a boxing promoter sport s agent radio show host hunter and fisherman writer jazz club owner and most recently my partner as we started a business together based on a common interest catching up with touch reminds me of how little the rest of the world gets done in a day our conversation usually started with blogging but spiraled off into the evils of insurance companies a new boxer a hunting trip anita o day my favorite or sinatra his favorite crooner and which shopping center parking lot we d met at for my ride to a steeple chase i m not sure what his politics were but his heart was big and liberal he tired of busting his ass defending thankless insurance companies and represented plaintiffs who touch felt were a whole lot more grateful that was the joy of his day job and it was underlined by a printer s union bug on his business cards touch was friends with my first roommate in philadelphia 27 years ago he knew my boss and a co worker at aetna the same number of years ago there was an eerie philadelphia six degrees of separation that touch knocked me over with time and time again i was terrified to bring up old girlfriends from those days for fear touch would know them better than i ever did we huddled over cocktails touch a rum and bourbon aficionado tried to educate me while poo poohing my islay single malts claiming they were not unlike licking charcoal briquettes he d fire up another parliament take a long drag and smile while asking me if i missed the habit i gave up six years ago before the end of the night i d bum one or two despite the head rush just to enjoy the camaraderie of sharing tobacco with him i always called him andy because he had this perpetual smile to me he looked like an andy if that s possible bubbly not so much more like burbly quick on the wit and faster with an opinion i loved his look on life as much as his take on assholes which brings me to a selfish conclusion why is it that assholes seem to live forever while the good ones well if you knew andy you know

cards he also traveled across the us on 2 00 and is the cheapest and smartest man i know chuck would die laughing at a 44 replacement for his rubber band but i like these sexy little cardholders from the little known french company of ideas striiiipes designed and made in paris what s not to like i ve discussed striiiipes before here and there i ve made a big deal of the owner arthur and one day soon i suspect striiiipes and arthur will make it big and the dump trucks of cash will pull up to their doors until that day however they cannot be expected to go beyond a certain a point which means they sell out of stuff fast this magnificent little alligator number at 95 is history there s a lot more out there for bet 44 62 but who knows for how long and that s what s great about striiiipes that what you buy isn t coming at you from every direction the uniqueness of some every day tool that makes reaching into your pocket for a card that much more exciting well exciting is probably the wrong word awesome that s the word overused hyperbole to define the understated and hushed quiet of gravitas thats the contrarian ticket i love which would fit into this cardholder but not broccoli

good for 100 000 miles i don t know if i m depressed or just surrounded by assholes reads a t shirt in daytona beach understanding the past goes into every day of my future i wonder if i ll appreciate

where i ve been it s none of your business and i m back as long as this is a pleasurable endeavor i missed it here but it was impossible to write about chinos and button downs i m not really sure i still can so this will be a different blog with emphasis on the undiscovered and that doesn t mean camouflage i can t stand mission statements so i ll be blunt i want to go down the roads less

gallery of new york city beretta employee moses gutierrez with a 20 gauge silver pigeon 1 2 240 i first bumped into the nyc beretta gallery about five years ago town housed among manhattan s retail townhouses hermès etro longchamp chanel and so many others i was actually just looking for a pair of khakis i pushed open the beretta door walked past security and was slapped in the face with racks and racks of obscenely beautiful apparel wool and waxed cotton jacket in the maremmana style 1 295 it was a london flashback what with tweed moleskin chukka and waxed cotton gravitas on the order of jermyn street cuban cigars and 25 year old single malts drunk from engraved pheasant whiskey tumblers moleskin suit with side vents jacket 535 trousers 165 luckily i stumbled onto a sale even better as i had a little money back then there was a lot i should ve bought that day but didn t and learned a lesson much of what you see in the nyc gallery is unique to the store once it s gone you may never see it again of course i was here for a pair of khakis second floor looking back it seems a shame shopping for khakis in beretta sort of like visiting umbria on the wagon competition shooting it s hard to describe just how diverse the gallery is roaming around on my last visit i heard a man walk in and announce i ve been invited to a shoot in spain i looked down from the second floor balcony and watched as the salesman sprung into action while those words i ve been invited to a shoot bounced jealously between my ears main floor while outdoor retailer s kevin s and cabela s offer over the top decor beretta manages to pull off the outdoors aesthetic with understated elegance chalk it up to to beretta s hometown of brescia cause this ain t meatballs and gravy in store italian made checks 155 much of what is in the nyc gallery is not on line and much of what is on line is not in the nyc gallery still a past visit to the beretta website found an olive moleskin maremmana hunting jacket sadly long gone for a surprising 99 in store suede chukka 423 a women s wool felt cap made by pennsylvania s bollman hat company is currently on sale for 37 50 marked down from 75 beretta sole and a men s quilted waxed cotton biker jacket has been reduced from 595 to 279 khakis 75 but i was looking for khakis and at 75 they re made in the us and something of a surprise i had mine cuffed and there was no extra charge that s the thing about beretta you can find a 20 ball cap or there s a 140 number that looks like a vietnam boonie hat i lusted after when i was in the army field watches are reasonable field watches quartz 229 automatic 389 women s quilted shooting jacket 875 women s scarves 895 carafe gift set 149 the engraved carafe and glasses are available in store and on line martini pitcher 200 while the best looking cocktail pitcher i have ever seen is only in the store a steal and you re only seeing it because i gave up martinis ice bucket 2 200 i haven t given up ice but the elephant foot ice bucket is a good example of beretta s price swing and like the 32 barrels on the 2 000 silver pigeon there s value in beretta it s under the radar for most nyc residents save those
