Fashionable means streamlined and "makes my ass look good".

I usually wear one of those fleecy thin shirts and then a heavier stretchy thing over it and a portable turtleneck thing (like a little "tube" of fleece). And running tights. But if they are warm enough, they feel bulky. I hate bulk. Except in my oatmeal.
I have a broomball game tonight at 6:30. The Star Trib says the temp has only warmed to 14 below. Barring a substantial warm up, I will be wearing pretty much all of my cold weather athletic clothing, regardless of how my ass looks. But that way I find there is a little mystery left.

They don't have much of a selection right now. Neither does Lucy. I'd second REI, but I'd also check out Target. Target has a bunch of Champion outerwear, and the cold weather stuff isn't that bad (note, though, that cold for me is no lower than 37ish.)

I guess we'll just have to see pictures to make the determination.

While I'm sure you do like that stuff, and that it looks good on you, there's something disorienting about reading clothing advice from a naked avatar.

But the lift guys?!? Are you kidding me? I'm not so much into the Beavis and Butthead type.

I do not judge.

Thanks. It's cold enough for your external codpiece, no?

If this is true, than who is manning the lifts at the ski resort?

The resort buses them in from Upstate NY.

Oh, and I've ordered stuff from Sahalie before that turned out to be fairly awesome.

I played broomball once. I also played ultimate frisbee once. Are all Minnesota sports designed to keep black people from participating or does it just work out that way?

It's actually the second line of defense, after the food and Garrison Keillor.

Ironically, Prince was a huge fan of Hot Dish.
