I know about Leathermans (Leathermen??). That is why I think Mr. Leatherman 2000 would make a great name for their new model. \*\*For the record, I am neither big nor hairy, but I do have big hair. \*\* Like from the 80’s? Lets see here, leather, big hair… you are Bon Jovi? ---

One more, then I’m going to bed. 🙂 My hair is just… poofy. Extremely curly brown/red, shoulder length. I emailed my pic to the pages, but I don’t think it’s up yet. Not Bon Jovi… but the next best thing. I’m Weird Al Yankovich with more volume. (I saw him in concert tonight. Woo ha. Er… yesterday. Damn, I need to go to bed.) ---

> [@](#): > > These are a pair of mens Levi 567 jeans in a size 32x30. They have been worn.They have the extra wide leg. The bottom of these are frayed. In fact, they are missing one side of the bottom hem in both legs. Guess it was frayed and my son cut the fray off (and the hem too. Besides the hem, they are in good shape. Since they are frayed and missing part of the hem, I will not start the price very high. These pair are the washed denim so they are washed looking, just not the bleached out type. Buyer to pay $4.50 for shipping. U.S. only. Insurance extra if wanted. Paypal, money orders, and checks accepted. Items held 10 days when paying with check. Payment must be made within 10 days of auctions end. Please email any questions before bidding. Check out my other auctions for more jeans and shorts.

You guys are great!!! [eyor], fortunately **Zette** ’s link on yahoo actually sends the order to your link, Brandmania. So I don’t have to pay shipping. I hope they don’t take long to get here. ---

#%! Thought I had something. First I checked mysimon, which revealed that same one that I posted, but at the time I knew it was the same one zette posted, so i checked at the search sites [brassfield.net](http://brassfield.net) listed, found nothing, and went to dealofday where I checked all sites under “apparel” and saw that one with %59 off and free shipping and didnt realize it was the same one. ah, well. let me know if you ever lose your socks, or something. and dont forget to check the $3 ebay auction ---

This thread was completely anti-climactic with the sig lines updating in all threads when you change them. I got here and the first post from Bear\_Nenno had his sig saying “Zette found my pants!” Bummer. ---

Crap, I didn’t know that. Ok, well I did not even think about it. That must be why they offered me the longer pants… they must have thought I was smart enough to hem jeans. Well I ordered two pair of 38x30 from them. I am so glad they had those. I called like three Levi outlets in central florida and no one even had them at any size. I will keep the hem idea for next time. The 38x30 should be fine though. The 38x32 were more than two inches longer than I needed anyway. Thanks for the help katrina. I know I sound like a clothes moron for not thinking about heming… How much does that cost, anyway?? ---

Ok, **katrina**. I thought about it, and I decided to get the longer ones and have them hemed. I emailed them and changed the order. What a great idea. I know I am such a moron, huh? Anyway, thank you soooo much. ---

Hey Bear- Happy to help with the pants. Anytime. Will you model them for me? … oops, never mind, I’m married. Look in the yellow pages under “tailor” or “alterations,” make sure to ask them about making the bottom look right. It shouldn’t cost very much money at all. ---
