There's a video where a professor at the Fruit Breeding department at the University of Arkansas called these Braggin' Berries. I see WHY

When my mom got me this clearance Naruto hoodie a decade ago, neither of us would have imagined that I would be wearing it to work every day.

Found this for a very good price. This is the modern recreation of the Seiko 1968 model 6105-8000. Fans call it the "slim turtle". My favorite feature is white dial watches is the ring of rainbow from the refraction off the glass.

I'll post about my only "Jewish" watch. My great grandfather Maximilian "Daddy Max" owned a pawn shop in a city that used to have a lot of trains. Conductors, when they needed money, would sell their watches. Daddy Max had to do some remixing to get them to sell.
