I saw the thread on the velvet jacket, and it reminded me that hanging in my closet is the SB Notch black velvet DJ several of us piled discounts upon discounts on an already heavily discounted web price to pick up for well under $50.

If you got one, have you worn it yet? Where and with what?. I plan to wear mine to a casual dinner at home with just the wife, pairing it with the red plaid tartan pants she says I'm to short to wear. I'll kill a bottle of zinfandel and then go sit on the deck in the cold trying to acquirer a taste for cigars.

Anyone put their's to a better use?

All my zinfandels are, of course, red. White (pink) zinfandels are appropriate only on summertime picnics with blue sky, green grass and a few white, fluffy clouds. Good Zins rival Cabernets when they are young.

As far as cigars, having made it well past 60 without polluting my lungs with tar and nicotine, an occasional minor slip into vice is unlikely to effect my health. An HDL of 75, CCS of 11 and clean coronaries on a CT angiogram (I was a volunteer) bodes well for my being shot by a jealous husband at 90.

But I worry about what to do with that D*** velvet dinner jacket.
