A Second Chance

A few years back I purchased a Lost Worlds Buco J- 27 on the Sale side of Stuarts site. It was Water buffalo and gorgeous but in one of those periods where I lost my brains I sold it. I have regretted it ever since. There were no issues with the jacket it was just one of those things one lets go and you keep thinking if I could only find another one.

Well about 2 weeks ago a Lost Worlds Ryder popped up on ebay and damned if it wasn't made out of those same Water buffalo hides!!!!! Well you all know the rest snared it and sweated while I waited for it to come in. Well my life is complete! (for now at least) Damn this ones cool! Thanks for making these bad boys Stuart! Too bad you don't have any more hides left. Super Soft and Super thick.

That is one cool looking jacket and appears that you even have enough room to layer underneath if necessary. Won't make your life complete but definitely gives you a warm glow for awhile!

Congrat's Wilbur! Ironically, the "one that got away" for me was a buffalo hide jacket (close). Glad you got this one - it fits you perfectly, and looks brand new!

Yep this ones a keeper. I will have to work out a bit more so it fits better around the belly but I am working out with my daughter right now as she is trying to get in the Coast Guard so if we both stick to our guns it will be a win win!

lol My wife signed me up for a new gym, and I went to an "extreme" group class of some sort yesterday. Shoulda known I was screwed when I was the only guy there. 50 minutes. Beat me silly Wilbur. And I could barely put my socks on this morning. Sore in places I forgot I had. Good luck. It sure doesn't get any easier as the years go by. Congrats to your daughter too. She'll get you into shape to do the buffalo proud.

Mwa ha ha ha ha... silly wabbit exercise classes are only for wimmins! Sorry I didn't mean to laugh but the only guys to quit the gym quicker than the errant male in the Zumba class are the guys that come in 20 years and 120 pounds after their last football practice who think they can still "stack em and rack em"! You're a smart guy.. you shoulda known....

Funny you say that. I was lookin' in the mirror - the whole room is mirrors - and thinking, I look as trim as I did when I was a safety. I quickly found out that the outline was the only thing that remained of those years - that and some too-small jerseys in the closet lol

Guys:

I have to say that I too have gone to these "classes" before (many many moons ago)! But I do recall that if one gets toward the front say second or third row back well the scenery is very nice, sort of like "motivating"!!! I used to run a lot and whenever I would run races particularly The Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta, I found that whenever I got behind a very nice looking young lady I always ended up with a "PR".

Given I'm with my wife, such "scenery" is cause for battery. Yes, it's there, but I see NUSSING - NUSSING!!! lol
