Hmmmmmm...think the j. Peterman is on his way with these offerings...
My 24 year old daughter just told me she intends to binge watch it when she completes grad school next month. Same reason.
Interesting insight. I used to frequently go to lunch with a Jewish attorney who was very curious about my beliefs. He asked much more insightful questions than most Arminian Christians. If he had come to believe Jesus was the Messiah I have no doubt he would have become a Calvinist because he recognized the sovereign and holy God I attempted to describe.
I have a theory that the primary reason most recoil upon hearing the Doctrines of Grace presented is that in their heart of hearts they know they are true.
Interesting catalog. Prices seem almost reasonable in the “Sale” section. (I never buy unless it’s on sale.)
I never watched Seinfeld, but I was aware of J. Peterman because I got a catalog once. Found their products to be more stylish than practical.
Sombrero Impeachments Halted at Bowdoin
March 14, 2016Members of Bowdoin College’s student government have halted a push to impeach two student representatives for their involvement in a “tequila party” out of a concern that vague bylaws raised legal concerns, according to the student newspaper. A college spokesperson said that contrary to the story as it was reported (and initially appeared here), those concerns did not originate with from the college administration.
Many conservative bloggers railed against the impeachments, which were brought by three members of the student government against two other members who had attended a so-called tequila party, where some wore miniature sombreros and the invitation to which read, “The theme is tequila, so do with that what you may. We’re not saying it’s a fiesta, but we’re also not not saying that :).”
Although the students rescinded the article of impeachment, though they said they stand behind their reasons for bringing them in the first place. The student government is updating its bylaws, but says it won’t reintroduce the articles of impeachment.
Much like the Peterman character on Seinfeld.
**making a reference to “Seinfeld,” Benes asks Sanders about his plan to tax the super-rich at a higher rate, and muses how the creator of hugely successful sitcom would “lose a lot of money. You see what I’m saying?”**

I mean who can’t like this description for a dress:
http://www.jpeterman.com/Womens-Dresses/Georginas-Sunset-Polka-Dot-Dress
When I left Georgina, she was restoring the 200-year-old frescoes in her 200-year-old villa in Matera, slightly south of Naples.
“Go explore the old town,” she said.
Her euphemism for “get lost for a while.”
(Actually, her villa was young by Matera’s standard, where I discovered many of the houses are carved from old caverns that are some 9,000 years old.)
After an exhausting day of “exploring,” she later restored my spirit at Le Botteghe by arriving not in her plaster-spattered overalls, but rather in a dress whose stunning color was more than able to compete with the Matera sunset.
The approving looks from diners at surrounding tables seemed to concur.
Georgina’s Sunset Polka-Dot Dress (No. 3692). Long, graceful, sleeveless, vintage cut in 100% cotton. Bodice lined in cotton. Invisible side seam zipper. Midcalf length. Band collar leads into a slightly curved V. Shirring along waistband. Side seam pockets. Separate wide self-tie belt adds a graceful touch.
Timeless femininity punctuated with tiny, almost innocent, raised white dots. Imported.
Women’s sizes: 0 through 20.
Colors: Sunshine Yellow with White Dots, Teal with White Dots.
As to Seinfeld, I recall one of the early Seinfeld episodes that took place in a big mall parking garage and they couldn’t find their car and wandered around and around looking for it the entire episode – that actually happened to me and a group of friends at the King of Prussia Mall, it took well over an hour before we finally found our car.
Not exactly the Soup Nazi, but there was a deli across the street from where I was working at the time that came pretty close. Once you made it to the front of the line, you had better know exactly what you wanted off the menu and without any hesitation otherwise you would get yelled at and told to go to the back of the line to “think about it”. And any “special requests” like hold the mayo or no cheese, etc. was met with derision and insults.
And yes, I will freely admit that when I dance I look a lot like Elaine and I also hated The English Patient. : ),
And the Smelly Car episode? One time I got a loaner car from the dealership while my car was in for a recall and the loaner car they gave me reeked so bad of BO and other bad odors that I couldn’t identify but smelled a lot like the time a possum found its way under the crawl space of my kitchen and died, and that even though it was winter, I had to drive with all the windows open and yes, the smell actually did transfer to my clothes. I also had an issue one time with a car rental company that took my reservation but when I showed up, they actually didn’t have a car for me. They “took the reservation” but didn’t “hold the reservation” and “that really is the most important part of the reservation, the holding”
The Ugly Baby episode? I had a friend and neighbor who gave birth to a baby who was, how shall I say, rather “unfortunate looking” as a new born. Seriously. As a newborn and up until about 6 months old, he looked like a combination of Yoda and Gollum. Fortunately, he grew out of that stage and grew out of his oversized ears and turned out to be a very cute kid, but even his mother cringed when looking at his pictures as an infant.
And the telemarketer? Yes. I did something very similar to this once.
Seinfeld - Telemarketer Call [Season 4, Ep. 3: The Pitch]
Of course that’s what made so many of the Seinfeld episodes so funny – it was comedy and exaggerated, but a lot was taken out of slices of real life.
We always loved Seinfeld, but living in NY for 3 years gave us a whole new appreciation!
The horror! The horror!
Does it come in yellow?
