Women say funny women things.

I had to laugh.
My current wife of 25 years yesterday said, "what's that?"
Me, "my new lightweight welding jacket."
Her,"that's a really good color on you. You don't usually pick that color though. So why did you get that color?"
Me," um, because it was the cheapest I could find and it's the only color they come in." (Radnor green btw)
Her, "oh, well it's a good color on you anyway."

It made me laugh almost as much as the time she asked me to shovel some mulch into the wheelbarrow and bring it over to her flower bed where she said she would "unshovel" it herself!

Having now Google-ated "radnor green," I don't see how that color could look good on anyone.

I can't imagine any shade of green looking good on anyone except a redheaded girl.

Oh, and with green eyes.

Yum.

She is always trying to get me to dress in bright spring colors. I'm glad she wasn't my mother.

For that price it actually looks nicer than actual shirts at 2-3 times the price.

Kingcreek, I'll see your guy in a Radnor Green 30" Flame Retardant Jacket and raise you

I have a very colorful wardrobe, beige, brown, tan, khaki, grey, olive drab and blue (jeans).

Same here. My wife demands the occasional blue shirt, to go with my limpid blue eyes.

As long as none of them are strapless dresses like the above post, I think you are okay regardless of the color.

[wmenorr67]

I've met RKL and I think he could pull off a full length strapless number.

[230RN]

My blued guns match my dark blue eyes.

Stainless, not so much.

Pull it off of whom?

I have pulled off a few strapless dresses and my wife didn't complain.

Except for the one time it wasn't your wife.

dear sweet thor.


I'll be in my bunk

[BlueStarLizzard]

Buy yourself a nice green shirt and maybe you'll pull off another strapless dress.

Sadly my wife's days of strapless dresses have passed into the archives of history.
Right along with me going shirtless in public.

If I could pull off about 20 lb and get back to my "show trim" of 175 lb, I'd be happy.

At one point I hit 230 lb and started getting serious about trimming down.

If I turned quickly, it took a half second for my belly to acquire that angular momentum and catch up with the rest of me.

I thought welders used to just use heavy starch.
