I guess that is why they are the "professionals"...
I think all season long, UGA has been two teams. One is the First Half team, and then the Second Half team. I don't know what happens at half time to either wake them up or put them to sleep, but today they were nonexistent after halftime. I already got an ear full from my buddy the Tech graduate. Now Tech ends up with the same regular season record as UGA, and will probably be ranked higher!!
So, how about those Falcons...

UGA - GA Tech
I have seen 5 "professional" sportscasters/writers, and 4 of them have picked GA Tech to win... Hello?!? Now, I know UGA isn't exactly blowing their opponents off the field, but Tech lost to UNC -- UNC!! Come on people...

Remember your Family
My Brother and I drove up to Charlotte today to visit our 93 year old Grandmother. She has become too frail to travel, and for the first time in a long time, our family will not be with her for Thanksgiving. This is just a reminder to everyone to cherish the family that you have with you, and reach out to those who cannot be with you!

Due to foreseen circumstances beyond my control, this will now be my only blog location. This is a better and more advanced spot for blogging. Be sure to check out all of the new features!!
Here is the good stuff:
The postcards were mailed this morning, so if you are on our USPS mailing list, watch out for those soon. If not, here is the sale for the email list customers:
A sale notice was posted here!! Did you see it? If not, email me at Leitersbigtall@aol.com to get on the list!
Now is the time that I would like to talk about wants and needs. Giving clothes for Christmas has become something that people don't do as much anymore, I think mostly because people want something else. If you went to Best Buy during December the past few years, there was frequently a 20 minutes line waiting just to get in line to check out at a register! The cool new gifts have been what people want, like a GPS, an iPod, a laptop, or something else electronic like that. But this season, let's consider the economy -- This year more than ever, we all need to shift our thinking from what we want to what we need. Everybody needs clothes -- and everybody needs new clothes. Are you tired of wearing the same outfit every week, or ladies, seeing your man in the same outfit all the time? We all need new clothes (me included). Again, more than recent years, just think about the difference between what we want (iPod) and what we need (new clothes) and what is more important in this economy.

Blog posts from 10/03/08 to 11/12/08
11/12/08 - Check out today's edition of the Marietta Daily Journal, the cover of the Lifestyle section, for a great picture!! You can click on the following link, but it might only show up today: http://www.mdjonline.com/images/pdfpages/18.pdf
We just got in another big shipment of Dockers, Levi's jeans, and Levi's Action Slacks.
11/11/08 - Today we got in a shipment from Greystone. This includes various items such as jersey sweatpants, all-elastic waist twill pants, jeans, hoodies, and jackets, in sizes 2X to 10X.
11/10/08 - We got in another shipment of Falcon Bay shirts, but these are from the After Dark line. These are nice fancy blue patterned shirts that would be good for clubbing, or something fancy like that.
That was a nerve-racking game, but a win is a win. Bulldogs back in the top10 !!
11/07/08 - We just got in two big boxes full of Levi's jeans, in style numbers 550 relaxed fit and 560 comfort fit.
11/06/08 - Congratulations to Kennestone Heart Physician's Group www.kennestoneheart.com!! Kennestone Heart was one of only five medical practices in Georgia to recently receive a Health Technology Award presented by the Physicians' Institute of the Medical Association of Georgia for Excellence in Medicine. Great job!!
11/05/08 - We just got in a shipment of really nice new shirts from Falcon Bay. They are half plaids and half stripes in a nice Fall burgandy color. The sizes run XLTall to 6X Tall and 2X big to 4X big.
11/04/08 - I voted -- did you? I got up at 7:00am and went to my polling location, and the line was about 100 people deep. I waited for 15 minutes and moved about 5 people along. I did the math, so I had to leave. I went home to get ready for work, and then went back on my way in to work. I guess they had worked out the delays, and I only had to wait about 10 minutes to cast my vote! So, it's official, and I am crossing my fingers that my candidates will end up victorious!!
Congratulations to John T. Sherrer, R.Ph., who was elected to the 2008-2009 Executive Committee of the National Community Pharmacists Association www.ncpanet.org. NCPA's Executive Committee represents community pharmacists nationwide.

OK, the UGA/FLA game was more painful. UGA did not look like a pre-season #1 at all. But still, UGA has only been beaten by two teams now in the top five. The newest BCS has UGA at 13, which might be about right. If they can (and should) win out the rest of their games, they could still finish in the top 10. But, no SEC championship game...
11/01/08 - I'm a member of the Gator-Hater Club -- are you?? LET'S GO DAWGS!! This is a BIG one!!
A Big Thank You for your business goes to The Walker School Booster Club www.thewalkerschool.org!!
10/31/08 - I hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween! Let's all be careful and watch our speed when driving. Watch out for the little witches and goblins in masks near the road.
10/30/08 - Last night, we (and when I say we, I mean my wife -- I just showed up) helped to host a Reception together with The Atlanta Opera Honoring Grammy Award-Winning Opera Singer and Marietta Native Jennifer Larmore. I great time was had by all, and big thanks go to all of the other co-hosts!! For more info, check out www.atlantaopera.org.
10/27/08 - The Dawgs took care of it at LSU!! Moved up in the BCS, now comes another test with the Gators. LET'S GO DAWGS!!
10/25/08 - The website changes are set!! The minor change to this site is that now you can also reach this site by using www.leitersbigtall.com. The other change is my third website! This is devoted mostly to casual clothing, or Company Casuals. There is a large variety of different items available, and my target customer is if someone wants casual uniforms for their office, this site has lots of great choices. Check it out and let me know what you think!! http://www.leitersuniforms.com
GO DAWGS!! It's the Battle in the Bayou!!
10/24/08 - Now is the time to start thinking about Halloween costumes. We get a lot of people every year come in to make their idea for a costume work. We have a large variety of items in stock in regular and big and tall sizes, and some of the more popular costumes requests we get are doctors, nurses, and chefs. If you have a Halloween costume idea revolving around needing some type of specialized clothing, come in and see us -- I bet we can help you out!!
10/23/08 - I just got in a very large shipment of sweat shirts and sweat pants, the same styles listed here on this website http://www.realpagessites.com/leitersbigandtall/sweatsuits/. It is getting colder -- time to stay warm!!
10/22/08 - I have spent most of today working on one minor (very minor) change to this website, and also working on my third Uniforms website. Everything should be ready by the end of this week, and I'll post the updates and changes here first!!
10/21/08 - A big Thank You for your business to Atlanta Water And Fire Restoration!! If you have any water or fire damage, call them at 770-883-4953.
10/20/08 - A big Thank You for your business to Any Pest www.anypest.com!!
10/18/08 - Good, the Dawgs took care of Vandy. Knowshon ran pretty good and Blair Walsh redeemed himself with the kick at the end of the game. Next week -- looks tough!
10/17/08 - It's the Christians vs the Mormons!!
Is it just me or is the Thursday night College Football game always the most exciting? Last night, Texas Christian www.tcu.edu beat previously undefeated BYU www.byu.edu. I would like to say that UGA can move up, but that hasn't happened yet! Now UGA needs to show Vandy www.vanderbilt.edu what real SEC football is like!!
10/16/08 - If you live in State District 38, on election day November 4, please consider voting for Steve "Thunder" Tumlin for State Representative. Thunder is a Marietta native, very smart, very nice, and is also a customer! For more information, check out http://www.stevetumlin.org/.
10/15/08 - I am working on yet a third website for our store. This site will be geared more towards "Company Casuals" which is like casual uniforms for an office environment. If and when it is up and running, I'll post it here first!!
10/13/08 - Three of the top four teams lose, and UGA doesn't move? OK....
10/12/08 - We will be open tomorrow for the Columbus Day "Holiday", so if you are off work, come on by!!
And how about the Atlanta Falcon, winning with one second left!! Jason Elam redeemed himself!!
10/11/08 - The Dawgs got it done!! They got an important SEC victory!! Looks like a lot of shakeup going on in the Top Ten. Let's see where the Dawgs move up to!!
10/10/08 - We got in a shipment of long sleeve T-shirts. Stay casual and warm!!
Back in the saddle again with the Dawgs... It was kind of nice to have the bye week to get over the hangover loss to BamBam. Let's gear it back up to beat Orange!! GO DAWGS!!
10/09/08 - We got in some nice reversible camo jackets. There are three different camo prints in nylon on one side, and black fleece on the other. Hunting season is here!!
10/08/08 - I really don't watch a lot of TV, but I have started watching one new show that might be worth checking out. Sons of Anarchy http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/soa/ is on the FX Network Wednesdays at 10pm. It has been described as The Sopranos on motorcycles. It follows a group of bikers in California. I would give it 8 out of 10 stars.
10/06/08 - We got in a shipment of one piece strap leather belts that are a new design for us. It is kind of hard to explain here, but if you think about the holes in a belt, there are now two side by side, and the holes run up the length of the entire belt. They are really nice looking in black or brown.
10/05/08 - Have you been to Marietta Pizza Company www.mariettapizza.com on the Marietta Square? I highly recommend it!! Friday night I had a salad with the best creamy Italian dressing I have ever had. Then I had a very large slice of pizza with pepperoni, real mushrooms (not the processed canned type), and fried chicken as my toppings!! Wash it down with a cold Bud, and I will rate it a strong 9 out of 10 stars!! Marietta Pizza Company is also very reasonably priced, as six of us ate and the bill was only $53ish dollars. Check it out!!
10/03/08 - We just received a shipment of Moleskin shirts. We have carried the Moleskin henley shirts for a few years, and they have been big sellers. This year, we got in more henleys, but also some long sleeve golf shirts and some really nice two pocket with flaps button up shirts in Moleskin. These shirts kind of remind me of outdoorsy type shirts good for camping or hunting. Moleskin is a really nice, really soft no-iron fabric that you need to feel to believe!! Come on in and check them out!!
I also have an idea for a double outing for you. Do you like spicy hot dogs? Come by here around lunchtime during the week and then you can head on down to Brandi's World Famous Hot Dogs. It is about a quarter of a mile down the street from us and it is kind of a local treasure here in Marietta. It used to be Betty's World Famous Hot Dogs, but Betty retired and Brandi bought it out, and as she said, "The only thing that will change is the name." I had a chili cheese dog and fries for lunch yesterday, and I will give it a solid 10 out of 10 stars!! The chili has the spicy kick that will sometimes kick you out of your chair!! I highly recommend Brani's. They also serve hamburgers, onion rings, and chips, and of course, slaw is available for a topping. For more information, call 770-422-3681.
We just got in another big shipment of Dockers, Levi's jeans, and Levi's Action Slacks.

Blog posts from 09/26/08 to 10/02/08
10/02/08 - Watch out for Ludlow Porch http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludlow_Porch this Saturday, October 4, as a presenter at the second annual Georgia Radio Hall of Fame dinner http://www.accessatlanta.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/accessatlanta/radiotalk/entries/2008/09/16/916_sunday_pape.html. He will be wearing a brand new suit purchased from Leiter's Big and Tall!! Congrats to Mr. Porch -- he was inducted into the Georgia Radio Hall of Fame http://www.grhof.com/ in 2007.
10/01/08 - This Saturday, October 4, from 5 to 8 pm, The Youth Museum http://www.ccym.20m.com/ will have its Sixth Annual Barbecue and Silent Auction. Rain or shine, you can enjoy live music and a selection of barbeque food to tempt every palate. All proceeds benefit The Youth Museum. My Mother has been associated with them almost from the beginning, so I spend a lot of time growing up at The Youth Museum. To purchase tickets or for more information, call 770-427-2563 or email at youthmuseum@aol.com.
09/30/08 - The last sale notice was posted here. Did you see it? To be notified of future sales, you can register at www.realpagessites.com/leitersbigandtall/mailinglist/
09/29/08 - I just got in a Wrangler shipment of pants and jeans and an Enro shipment of long sleeve dress shirts.
Two brothers who are also customers are working on starting up a website geared towards amateur athletes. Check out www.sportsiplay.com. Look for it soon!!
09/28/08 - OK, that was kind of painful. I say "kind of" because it was very unrealistic to expect that UGA would go undefeated this season. And, if you are going to get beat, then get beat by another team ranked in the top 10. I think that UGA should still stay ranked in the top 10, but seeing as how previously they won all of their games and still lost two places, who knows what will happen. All they need to do is keep winning from here on out, and I think everything will still be fine. Bama drew blood, but the Bulldog nation bleeds Red and Black!!
09/27/08 - Do you like popcorn? Do you like to read magazines? Do you like to read magazines while eating popcorn? Do you want to support my kid's fundraisers? Then you are in luck!! If you would like to renew or subscribe to any magazines, my kids are selling most magazines that are G or PG rated for a fundraiser for their school. If you like popcorn, my son is selling different types for a fundraiser for his cub scout troop http://www.scouting.org/cubscouts.aspx. They have some really great popcorn, like regular and light popcorn, and different kinds of chocolate covered popcorn. The chocolate is what we got last year, and it was great!! If you need anything, and would like to support two great causes, please let me know!! Thanks!!
GO DAWGS!! Beat Bama!!

And speaking of new jackets, I just got in a shipment of new jackets, and these are going to be a HOT item!! Do you remember the old Member's Only coats? Well, Cotton Traders has done a replica style!! I just got them in, in solid black or solid tan in sizes 2X to 6X. I still see some people wearing the old style, and I still get a few requests every year for people asking if we still carry the old Members Only. Come check them out, they will not last long!!

09/28/08 - OK, that was kind of painful. I say "kind of" because it was very unrealistic to expect that UGA would go undefeated this season. And, if you are going to get beat, then get beat by another team ranked in the top 10. I think that UGA should still stay ranked in the top 10, but seeing as how previously they won all of their games and still lost two places, who knows what will happen. All they need to do is keep winning from here on out, and I think everything will still be fine. Bama drew blood, but the Bulldog nation bleeds Red and Black!!
09/27/08 - Do you like popcorn? Do you like to read magazines? Do you like to read magazines while eating popcorn? Do you want to support my kid's fundraisers? Then you are in luck!! If you would like to renew or subscribe to any magazines, my kids are selling most magazines that are G or PG rated for a fundraiser for their school. If you like popcorn, my son is selling different types for a fundraiser for his cub scout troop http://www.scouting.org/cubscouts.aspx. They have some really great popcorn, like regular and light popcorn, and different kinds of chocolate covered popcorn. The chocolate is what we got last year, and it was great!! If you need anything, and would like to support two great causes, please let me know!! Thanks!!
GO DAWGS!! Beat Bama!!

Did you see that game last night?!? I am now the #1 fan of the Oregon State Beavers http://oregonstate.edu/!! Unranked Oregon State beat (soon to be formerly) #1 USC http://www.usc.edu/!!
And speaking of football, are you going to a high school football game tonight? It's going to be a little chilly. You might need a new jacket... And speaking of new jackets, I just got in a shipment of new jackets, and these are going to be a HOT item!! Do you remember the old Member's Only coats? Well, Cotton Traders has done a replica style!! I just got them in, in solid black or solid tan in sizes 2X to 6X. I still see some people wearing the old style, and I still get a few requests every year for people asking if we still carry the old Members Only. Come check them out, they will not last long!!

09/25/08 - We got in a shipment of Falcon Bay button up plaid long sleeve sport shirts. There are a few nice new prints here!!

We just got in a shipment of more Players underwear, including undershirts, briefs, boxers, and mid length briefs.
09/23/08 - In tribute to Larry Munson, the voice of the Georgia Bulldogs, who announced his retirement. Thanks for 43 great years!!
09/22/08 - Fall is here!! The fall shipments are starting to roll in. I just got in a big Falcon Bay shipment, which most notably includes a lot of long sleeve button up shirts in nice stripes, and some solid black two pockets shirts with flaps, and some really nice shirts that I would best describe as a long sleeve subtle Hawaiian stripe. See them and you will love them!!
09/21/08 - How bout them Dawgs!! They beat the heat in the desert!! From Knowshon's Superman play to A.J. Green's great catches, the Dawgs took care of the Devils like champs!! Bring on those elephants!!
09/20/08 - On Thursday, September 25, 2008, the March of Dimes is hosting the Signature Chefs Auction at the Marietta Country Club www.mariettacountryclub.org at 6:00pm. You can sample savory signature dishes by preeminent local chefs, and there will be live music and an exciting silent and live auction including a chance to win a one carat diamond and Rolex www.rolex.com watch and private winery tours in Napa Valley. The March of Dimes is committed to improving the health of babies through the prevention of birth defects, prematurity and infant mortality. For more information call 404-350-9800 EXT 208, or check out www.marchofdimes.com/georgia. We have been to this event the past couple of years, and it is a great cause. Our twins were born six weeks premature, and spent about four weeks in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, which is supported by the March of Dimes.
09/19/08 - If you are a sports fan and don't read Jeff Schultz in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution www.ajc.com, then I highly recommend it. Every Friday during football season, he gives his weekend picks, and I usually have to pick myself up off the floor from laughing so hard. Today, of course, he picks UGA to win, but in picking Alabama at Arkansas, he writes "Nick Saban vs. Bobby Petrino. This might be the first time in Saban's career that he's the sentimental favorite." That's a good one, but the next one is gold. LSU at Auburn - "It's a good thing Auburn went to a new offense this season. Otherwise there's no way they pound Mississippi State last week 3-2." What did I tell you -- comic genius !! That game looked like a baseball score. By the way, Jeff Schultz picks Bama and LSU to both cover the spread. GO DAWGS!!
09/17/08 - I just got in another shipment of UGA scrub tops. This is a re-order because I sold out all but one from the first shipment !! I only have UGA in stock, but I can special order (and have already) most other large schools, including all 12 SEC teams. For information on styles and teams available, check out http://www.landau.com/Collegiate.aspx. Most are available from X-Small to 5X, and also in kids sizes !! Please let me know if I can get any for you.
