Speaking of Corinthian and the name in marketing.
Corinthian Colleges Inc. for profit college founded in 1995 filed chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2015.
June 2022 US Dept of Education announced it was canceling 5.8 billion dollars in federal loan debt for 560,000 students
who attended Corinthian, that's $10,357 per student. At its' peak it and 24 subsidiaries operated 97 schools mainly vocational.

Corinthian Furniture (manufactured) in Corinth Mississippi is actually made in Cambodia and assembled in the U.S.

ROFL! That brings back a funny memory. When I was 12 years old, I signed up for a leathercrafting class through 4-H. Our first class was just an introduction to what we'd be doing later, and for some unknown reason, the instructor gave each of us kids a piece of naugahyde. I guess he didn't have any real, actual leather, LOL! In the car on the way home, I was gazing adoringly at my piece of "leather," and deciding what designs I wanted to tool on it, when my dad (I really miss my dad) said with a perfectly straight face, "Yes, and only one nauga had to die for you to have that," at which point he turned it over, so I could see the mesh fabric backing, and part of the word "Naugahyde" ink-stamped on it. I was soooo embarrassed, but I got pretty good at leatherwork eventually. I never tried to tool another piece of naugahyde my whole life, though.

Congrats, @chaded! With @Dave coming in 2nd place.

@chaded, you get to pick the subject of the May photo contest.

Anyone that didn't get a chance to submit an entry, feel free to add your pic in the comments.

Been a lot of years since my old bronc riding chaps were involved in even winning second place. We use to say second was the first loser...... I had even thought of a topic. Critters where they don't belong. Oh well, maybe next time.

 

[chaded]

Two in a row for me? This isn't even fair for you guys anymore.

Those boots are my Red Wing Iron Rangers. They are my nice boots, they have never seen any actual work. Lol.

We will go with Dave's idea. "Critters where they don't belong."

I blame my picture not showing up for my poor performance!
I was given this buckle by a friend a few years back, finally got a belt made for it

Simple working chinks but the leather quality/ craftsmanship is phenomenal. Found them in a little tack shop in Detroit Lakes MN. Bought 3 pairs. Had them up tonight fixing a concho on the belt and thought I would throw up a pic.

I'm not sure what happened. Looked good when I previewed the poll before posting but showed up as an attachment. Which, if you click on the attachment, your pic will download.
