    I HAD one but I think George five fingered it while he was helping out around the house last time I was in the desert.

    My members only got a sleeve torn off of it during a fight I was into at a "Rocky Horror Picture show" event. I was trying to get out of my row to get some popcorn, and this **** wouldn't move his legs to let me by, so I moved them for him. In the tussle I fell backwards and dipshit had a hold of my sleeve, and rrriipppp. There it went. I should have gave the guy a medal, with hind sight, but he got an ****-whippin instead...LOL! Sheesh, that was like 1982'ish?

    That's just the tip of the iceberg from what he's talked about in person! No telling what other stories he has in reserve! ;)

    Of course, to be REALLY with it, you needed a pair of Porsche folding sunglasses. Now THAT was the shizznit.

    Glacier glasses were good too.

    I wore my Member's Only jacket PROUDLY. I also thought my Bugle Boy slacks with the paisley pattern on the inside that would show when I rolled them up around my ankles was cool too.

    Finish it out with a Polo or Izod shirt, with the collar 'up', white socks, Penny Loafers, and 'Risky Business' Ray Bans.... Look out ladies, here comes the Russman.

    God, I must have looked like one of the Pet Shop Boys.

    Cheers,
    Russ

    I was too busy playing Mario Bros to pay any attention to what jackets were being worn.

    Man, I pictured Russ as an Iron Maiden Tshirt wearing ****. Maybe the leather jacket with the fringes and bandana around the let.....

    I had two, a beige and a black. Alas, I had to let them go because of all the little burn holes from the seeds popping...;)

    I think I'll now focus on one of the very bright spots in fashion from the 80's...Jordache jeans.

    What guy didn't love a girl wearing a skin tight painted on pair of Jordache jeans showing off a perfect ****! Good god that was one of the best things about highschool!

    Please oh please, bring them back!
