Default Uniform Stuff

Is there a good website that sells uniform apparel for non-outrageous prices? (specifically a navy-blue sweater with the epaulet things?)

I can check tomorrow, but I have an exact sweater that you are talking about. I have no idea where it is though. If I can find it, I'll give it to you for a small price.

whats wrong with the sweater. if you work for mesa and skywest and you just stay in cali or the southwest you might not need it. but flying around the north and the northeast, you sometime think the sweater is the best pilot invention. ha

While I do make a mean Oatmeal cookie, the cookie in question was, sadly, store-bought.

Never go to the grocery store while angry where they have a 2 for 1 special on cookies..........

I'm telling you, I can take him to MUC and make sure he's the first one thru the door at the Hofbrauhaus when it opens and the last one standing when the barkeep screams "Sie müssen gehen, betrunkener Amerikaner!"
