Fabricated Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan. We've been on hiatus after the feds nearly shut us down. No they didn't but whatever. We've been busy researching new people with looks straight out of central casting but so far it has been no dice on producing a spin-off to an already underwhelming blog. This week's submission comes from none other than Mrs. Jacket herself. So that's probably a  pretty big deal around these parts, if anything around here has the potential to be a big deal. So let's get to it.

First things first. I'm glad Mrs. Jacket had a full charge before she sent us this earth-shattering photo. Secondly if there was ever an opportunity to shut down this blog it would be now. Basically Mrs. Jacket is telling us that for a price anyone can be Jacket by buying this beardo and therefore we are all Jackets and the world is just one big monolith comprised of Jacket wannabes. She in fact is beating the world because she is aligning herself with the real deal and the rest of us are just poser losers who are all dying to be Jacket. So that's that. But no despite this devasting news Jacket of the Week will carry on. We hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time.

Strong Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan(s). The fan count is still in doubt. Maybe 1, maybe 2, maybe none.  The best part of this blog is that is about a man that we haven't seen in over a year and maybe three times in two years. So even though our Jacket morale is low we are still committed to the cause. And that cause is finding promoting the Jacket of look of bald and beard. So let's get right into it....

Yes, there he is, "Strong Jacket." For those of you who do not know that man he is none other than Mark Strong. English Actor. He was in Syriana, Sherlock Holmes, regrettably John Carter among other films. He has the Jacket look down pat. Beard length and side hair length identical. He may be classing it up a bit too much with that three piece suit he is wearing. . Nonetheless he is our Strong Jacket, and a fine Jacket indeed. Hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time....

Inside the Jacket's closet

Hello to all the Jacket of the Week fan(s) out there. And so it goes as we are now entering into the 27th week of Jackets. So we are over a half of a year into this endeavor and we have had some damn fine Jackets added to out closet. This week we are going to add a Jacket that will will help us go inside the closet and may even interview a Jacket or two before this is all said and done. So without further ado, let's get right into the unveiling...

Yes here he is. Our latest Jacket. That is James Lipton of Inside the Actor's studio. He was suggested a couple months ago by one of the three people that have ever read this blog.  Lipton is a great addition to our closet because not only does he possess the Jacket style of bald, beard,  and sometimes glasses but he also adds a touch of class and pretension where needed. Lipton is like Jacket only he is nothing at all like Jacket, so he's got that going for him at least. This is how we imagine Jacket will look in 8 years if he wears a powerful brown suit and his left eye starts to droop.  Anyway we hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time.

Varsity Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan(s). It's that time of the week again. When we unveil yet another great Jacket to our collection. This week is the start of football season so we thought we should continue with that theme. This is a great Jacket, a historical Jacket, a cultural Jacket. Let's now waste any more time and get into the unveiling.

 

Yes there he is, a man you may or may not remember. That is the Nigerian nightmare, Christian Okoye. Now he will be forever known as "Varsity Jacket." Okoye is known for his Tecmo Bowl prowess and two 1000 yard seasons. In this photo Varsity Jacket is sporting a neatly trimmed beard, a bald head, the biggest biceps of all time and a sweet pair of Zubaz pants. Varsity Jacket is the first All-Pro in our closet and might be the most stylish due to those sweet, sweet pair of Zubaz. With those 19 inch bis we known who will be calling all the shots among fellow Jackets.  We hope you enjoyed this week's addition. Until next time...

Folk Jacket

Greetings Jacket of the Week fans. Oh wait. We no longer have any fans. We have finally reached our goal of having no one visit this site. Absolute 0. 0 on the Kelvin Scale if you will.  Was it hard? Kind of. It took almost half a year. There is greater interest in Jacket doppelgangers than you would think. So here we are, a blog that has become more of an obsession diary at this point. So to any potential Jacket of the Week fans that may read this post some time in the future, let's get to the unveiling...

 

Here we have this week's Jacket titled "Folk Jacket." It is none other than folk singer William Fitzsimmons. Folk Jacket is dressed as though it is 1895. It is not 1895, Folk Jacket. In fact it is not even 1995. So you are way off base in your fashion sense. But like Jacket, who wears bright orange sweatshirts, both are moving to the beat of their own fashion drum. Although from a comparison standpoint Folk Jacket still has all his hair and his beard is much more powerful, he still lives in the same Jacket universe.  So there you have it future Jacket of the Week fan. I hope you enjoyed this week's addition. Until next time... 

American Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Weeks fan(s). Last week we got blasted for going with another Baseball player Jacket. Threats were made, listened to and understood. This week we are trying to come back with a much better Jacket. With the Olympics winding down and the USA leading the medal count we thought we would go with a Patriotic Jacket. A Jacket we could all get behind. So let's get right into this Patriotic Jacket, this American Jacket...

Here we have our American Jacket. This American Jacket is attempting to encapsulate all things Jacket. First he enjoys a good smoke, the way all Jackets do. Secondly with a beard like that he is clearly a hippy-liberal like all Jackets and finally he is wearing a well-fitted suit when he would prefer to be wearing cargo shorts and Birkenstocks while listening to the crunchiest grooves known to man. Now his beard is more powerful than your typical Jacket but let that not diminish the fact that he is indeed still a Jacket. This is the time to be patriotic and American Jacket is leading the way. Thank you American Jacket. Until next time...

Batting Cage Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan(s). Not sure if more than one person looks at this blog. It's like a roller coaster between 1-5 fans. So here we are. We have arrived at yet another unveiling. So let's get right into it. (Note: posted this picture and completely forgot that last week we did it on Kevin Youkilis. That would be back to back baseball references here. In a word, whoops)

Yes there he is, "Batting Cage" Jacket. He is also known as former NLCS Phillie killer Cody Ross. Are we fond of this guy at Jacket of the Week? No, we're not. But you can't deny this Jacket's striking resemblance to the real Jacket. The funny thing about this Jacket is that even though he looks younger than Jacket, we're pretty sure they are the same age. Even though we arent' too keen on this Jacket  it's not as though you like every Jacket that's in your closet. Also we've kept with the trend of barely recognizable celebrities. That concludes this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time...

Baseball Jacket

Hello to all our Jacket of the Week fans out there. It is that special time of the week. The inevitable time of the week. Like death and taxes there will always be a Jacket of Week (except those couple times when we skipped it). So here we are again celebrating the summer sun and soaking in its cosmic rays, and sipping on some cool suds. This week we will be keeping with our summer theme we will adding a baseball jacket. Let us get to the unveiling....

Yes there he is. This week's jacket titled "Baseball Jacket." If you don't know who that is that is Chicago White Sox third baseman Kevin Youkilis (formerly of the Boston Red Sox). Is "Baseball Jacket" a future hall of famer? No. Is he currently a superstar? No. Is he even a star? At this point, no. So that's the type of celebrities we add here at Jacket of the Week. They certainly aren't A list. Debatable B listers. But hey, at least they are in the debate. Got to be in it to win it, is one of the mottos here at Jacket of Week. And that's one we live by. We might not be a top 1,000,000 blog on the internets, but it's debatable. And that's all that matters. We hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time.

Across the Bar Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. It's that time of the week. Another revelation. This week's addition was sent to us by a friend of the real Jacket. Now he is our friend He not only sent the picture but provided the title as well.  So we thank you for this great image of another great looking Jacket. Let's get right into the unveiling...

This week's Jacket has been titled "Across the bar Jacket." Here our friend was at a bar thinking he was there alone but then realized you are never alone anywhere you go because there are Jackets all around you. It's really impossible to say this isn't the Real Jacket. In fact, we defy you to make this claim. Everyone knows Jacket enjoys a cold beverage. If he's anything like the real Jacket I would imagine that beverage to be a Jack and Coke. Of course it is, because you can't determine that he's not the real Jacket.  Even if he weren't the real Jacket, it's a known fact that Jack and Cokes, hereafter renamed Jackets and Cokes, are official drink of all Jackets everywhere. We hope you enjoyed this addition to the closet. It was a great one. Until next time.

Double Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. It's that time of the week. The best part of the week. Not so much the end of the work week as it is yet another glorious unveiling of our latest and greatest Jacket of the Week. This week you are getting two Jackets for the price of one. Can't beat it. So let's get right into the unveiling...

This week's Jacket is titled Double Jacket. Now you are probably wondering why we didn't title it homosexual Jacket. There are a few reasons for this. One who is to say we haven't already posted several homosexual Jackets already. Why should this week get such a designation as though these are the only two gay guys posted when we might have already posted 1, 5, 10? Who knows. Secondly these guys might not be gay. But seriously how often do you get two guys who look vaguely like Jacket that are in love with one another. It's just not that often. Great opportunity for us and you. We are proud to add these two Jackets to our collection. Until next time... 

Punk Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan(s). It's that time of the week. It is time to unveil yet another Jacket into what has blossomed into the most illustrious collection of Jackets on the Eastern seaboard. Let's just get right into it.

This week's Jacket is titled Punk Jacket because that is none other than WWE superstar CM Punk. If you don't know who CM Punk is then you clearly don't know anything. With Summerslam about a month away we thought it was a great time to add a great wrestler to our collection. And with one of the most popular wrestlers available to turn into a Jacket we had to jump at the opportunity.  Does CM Punk look like the real Jacket? No, probably not. But he has most of the right features. If only he were involuntarily bald instead of voluntarily bald then we would have been cooking with gas. Oh well, can't win them all. We hope you enjoyed this week's addition to the closet. Until next time.

Black Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. Here we are again. It is that time of the week when we unveil another Jacket. We've noticed that all our Jackets have been white thus far. We are tired of looking into that closet and only seeing white Jacket after white Jacket. It's debatable that there were some tan Jackets in there but let's be honest, they are white. We need some black Jackets to give us some variety. Hell if we can find blue Jackets, we'll take those too. Now let's get to the unveiling...

Here is this week's Jacket of the week. We titled this week's Jacket as "Black Jacket." Mainly he was titled this because he is the first guy to have a black beard and black eyebrows. But anyway Black Jacket has a really neatly trimmed beard and a sweet earring. He doesn't look that much like Jacket but he looks more like Jacket than Keith Jardine (previously titled "Vest") does. So that's a good start anyway. No doubt the ladies or men love this Jacket. He is a good looking Jacket and a great addition to the closet. So there you have it. Until next time...

Standard Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan. Yes we have gotten to that point where there is only one single person who views this blog. That's not all bad. We'll shut it down when we've successfully reached zero. We estimate that to be in about 4 weeks. Here we are again. It's that special day where we reveal a very ordinary looking person that looks similar to the one and only Jacket. This week's version is nothing special. You've probably seen this guy or someone who looks just like him 20 times a day for your entire life. But that could be said about 75% of the Jackets of the Week. But then again isn't that the entire premise of this blog? To point out the fact that Jacket aka Winter Jacket, has a look that is reproduced in large numbers throughout the United States of America and beyond? Maybe. Enough with these existential questions, let's get to the action.

Here is this week's addition to the closet titled "Standard Jacket." Nothing special about Standard Jacket. He is obviously taking a self-portrait for whatever reason. But that's  what you would expect from Standard Jacket a forgettable self-portrait probably taking on a forgettable Tuesday morning that he posted on some forgettable bald beard message board. A standard day for a Standard Jacket. So there we have it. That concludes this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time...

Zane Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. We've been starving you of late with this being your first new addition to the closet in two weeks. Everyone hits leans times at some point and right now you are feeling the ramifications of two weeks with no Jacket. So let's get back to it. This week's Jacket is a Jacket you may have some familiarity with. You may know him from his role in the blockbuster Titantic, or the Phantom [not Phantom of the Opera (The Phantom is a comic book adapation movie from 1996 also starring Catherine Zeta Jones and the Dad from the show Dexter)], or for his cameo in the Zoolander. So since you already have a strong idea let's get to the unveiling...







　

There you have it. This week's Jacket of the Week has been titled Zane Jacket because it is none other than the great Billy Zane. Billy Zane like our friend Jacket has seen better days. And in this picture they do look a lot alike. It's almost like his male pattern baldness is replicating Jacket's.  Zane must know of the work of Jacket and he obviously respects it. So there you have it Jacket of the week Fans. Until next time.

Jolly Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fan(s). I'm hopeful we are back into the plural but even if we are still hanging out in the singular we'll keep trucking along. Here we go with another addition to our closet. As the weeks go by some have argued that we have lost some serious steam. The addition of Riff Raff  last week went against the theme of Jacket of the Week, they say. Well we are going to go back to the basics this week with some no name dude that only slightly resembles Jacket. So let's get on with the unveiling...

So here he is. This guy is either really jolly or light in the loafers. We titled this week's Jacket of the Week Jolly Jacket.  I'm going to go with light in the loafers.  Even though we are arguably the most infrequently read blog on the internets we still have to be PC at times. Here this week's Jacket has a certain glow to him that you don't see from people that are heavy in the loafers. Yes we just made that saying up but feel free to use it. We've had a lot of Jackets in our closet that are heavy in the loafers so we thought we'd try to be a bit more diverse. Jacket himself is heavy as hell in the loafers. A real savage if you will. That's all we have for this week's addition. Until next time...

Old School Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week Fan(s). We are a little late to the party this week as you may know. At least we are still partying. We have a new addition in store for you this week. This week's Jacket is like Jacket when he had long dreds and a beard. Only this guy doesn't have dreds.  Anyway let's just get down to business and unveil...

You probably have no idea who that is. For one thing he is this week's addition to the Jacket of the Week.  This Jacket is a rapper by the name of Riff Raff.  He is very popular in the youtube universe and he is starting to cross over mainstream. He had feature articles in the LA Times and Gawker this week. Also James Franco is playing a character based on Riff Raff in Spring Breakers. If you are interested in his work here is a link. Rap Game's Dawson's Creek In one lyric he raps about glow in the dark Bart Simpson haircuts, in another he refers to himself as Rap Game's Dawson Creek. It's very high-brow stuff. How does this Jacket relate to the real Jacket? He doesn't, but he takes us back to a time when Jacket had a crazy hair style and probably watched Dawson's Creek. I hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time...

Is that an above ground pool in the background? Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. It's Friday which also means it's time to unveil our latest Jacket. Oh and here he is.

This week's Jacket is titled, "Is that an above ground pool in the background? Jacket" If you look at the photo it appears that there is some kind of above ground pool in the background. But it's impossible to say really. Also is that a random field or is that this Jacket's backyard? I'm not heavy in the above ground pool game but I do respect a large backyard. If that is this Jacket's yard I would say, congrats because many a wiffle ball game or football game could be played there.  Also enough area to have an intricate paintball game. The area is very large and very flat, two key components to an amazing backyard. Now if this is just some random field with an above ground pool in the middle of it then that's also cool. Because it would be so damn bizarre.  Either way this is a very intriguing locale and I'm not surprised our Jacket found it. Jackets always find themselves in interesting situations.  So thanks again for this thought provoking photo. Jackets always keep you on your toes and "Is that an above ground pool in the background? Jacket is no different. Hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time.

Storage Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. It is that day again. And a great Spring day it is. Yet another unveiling to be done. For the second time in 12 weeks we will succumb to the desires of our fan(s) and give you an oft requested Jacket. If you are big into reality TV you will be familiar with this Jacket. If you are not familiar with Reality television then you will look at the picture and think it is nothing but another feeble attempt at posting a picture of a man that barely looks like the man we call Jacket. So be it. You can't lose 50% of your fan interest in one week. That would be devastating to this blog. And we will not let that happen here. So let's just get right into it.

Yes. There he is. The Jacket we have named "Storage Jacket." If you are familiar with the show Storage Wars you will recognize that as Jared. Jared is the guy that is somewhat of a dick and has a deceptively attractive wife. He has no business being married to this woman but he is. So good job Storage Jacket on the nice pull. That is one thing he has in common to the real Jacket in that Jacket's intended seems like way too good and cool of a person to be with him. So nice pull on that one Jacket. And there you have it folks. This week's Jacket of the Week. I hope you enjoyed it. Until next time.

Old Jacket

Hello Jacket of the week fans. We have arrived at the only day of the week that your truly care about. That would be the day we unveil yet another Jacket to our closet of Jackets of the Week. With tomorrow being Cinco de Mayo we probably should have gone with a Mexican Jacket. We also could have paid our respects to Floyd Mayweather being that he is fighting on Saturday or even our English brethren as tomorrow is the FA cup final. But we didn't.  Probably because this is an American blog. And Americans do not appreciate boxing, soccer or Mexican Independence Days. So instead you are going to be treated to an American Jacket who is doing American things, like smiling or being fat or whatever Americans are known for. Let us get to the more important aspects of this blog, which would be revealing a picture of a man that has a vague (at best) resemblance to a man that is called Jacket because his Civil Procedure professor could not correctly pronounce his last name.  And now the moment you have been waiting 168 hours for.

Here we have a picture of a man that will look exactly like Jacket in 5 years when Jacket will look like a 52 year old man.  Hence we have titled this week's Jacket "Old Jacket." Also Jacket will probably gain between 50-75 lbs. because he will have nested for the last 5 years getting complacent in his ways. Think about Jacket for a second and then look at this picture, I'll be damned if they aren't related. It's not that crazy to think that. If  I didn't know for a fact that Jacket's own father was a handsome man, who looks not a day older than 42, I may have mistaken this man to be Jacket's father or at worst his uncle. Alas he is not but he is another great addition to our closet. That wraps up this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time. 

Expensive Jacket

Hello to all the Jacket fans out there. We have returned for another addition of Jacket of the Week. This week  might be our best looking Jacket yet. In fact let me go out on a limb and say, Yes this is our best looking and most expensive Jacket we have had in our illustrious history at Jacket of the Week. That's a lot of hype to give to a Jacket but some people are able to live up to an enormous amount of hype. Michael Jordan, Ken Jennings, Roger Federer, this new addition to the Jacket closet to name a few. All of them winners. Was it a mistake to compare this week's Jacket to Ken Jennings? Maybe. But with great risk comes great reward, Sometimes. Sometimes it's just an unbelievably stupid risk and there is no reward at all for it. Like jumping in front of train for no reason. All risk no reward there. But anyway, without ado we present you with this week's Jacket of the Week.

We have titled this week's Jacket, "Expensive Jacket."Is this a great angle for a photo? No, it isn't. But even given the weird angle we notice several things; first the man is wearing a well-tailored suit. Secondly this man clearly has a grooming kit at his home because his beard is outstanding. Thirdly this man is a hit with the ladies or the men, whatever.  Does this man look like the Real Jacket. Again, not really. But is the Real Jacket accustomed to the style and grace that Expensive Jacket possesses? No. So it isn't even fair to the Real Jacket to compare the two because Expensive Jacket is on another level.  Expensive Jacket is a Boyd's man, Real Jacket is probably not a Boyd's man.  That concludes this week's Jacket of the Week. We hope you enjoyed it. Until next time.

Thrift Store Jacket

Sometimes life disappoints. Your childhood dog dies, your husband leaves you for a woman half your age or a week comes and goes without a  new Jacket of the Week posting. But that is what we do here at Jacket of the Week, we put things in perspective. So in 15 years when you find out your wife is having an affair with your landscaper you can say, "Man, this sucks but it doesn't suck as bad as that time there wasn't a Jacket of the Week." When your favorite blog also acts as your mentor that is something special. We hope if nothing else you have come to appreciate the magnitude of this blog.  Now that we've gone through that experience there aren't any lessons to be taught for the time being. After we gave you negative reinforcement we must follow through with positive reinforcement. So when you wake from your bed, get dressed, go to work, fake doing work, then start searching the internets you will find a new Jacket of the Week. This week's Jacket of the Week is not a good looking Jacket. He is a Jacket that you may have bought when you were down on your luck. Maybe this Jacket had seen better days but now he's all used up. That is Jacket we are working with this week. Let us now unveil this week's Jacket of the Week...

We have titled this week's Jacket "Thrift Store Jacket" Let's be honest here. This is not a Jacket that goes over big with the ladies or men, whatever. This Jacket is trying hard to be alluring but no dice. If there is one thing Jackets are not it is alluring. "Thrift Store Jacket" is a Jacket we will be burying the closet. But he is our Jacket nonetheless. I hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time. 

Holy Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. Today is the day men call good. It is also the day we call Jacket of the Week. So we've got that going for us. I know the real Jacket isn't a big Good Friday Guy, but I'm sure there is some Pagan holiday this weekend that coincides with Easter that he will be celebrating. No doubt it involves a lot of crunchy grooves and positive energy. The way we keep cranking out Jackets over here makes me think it wouldn't be a bad idea to start a competitor to Burlington Coat Factory.  Cherry Hill Jacket Mill? There have been worse ideas. Anyway let's stick to what we know and if there is one thing we know that's finding pictures of people that loosely resemble Jacket. This week's addition to the team is mix between Jacket and the European representation of Jesus. But if the European representation of Jesus was a really mean looking guy. So basically he looks nothing like Jesus but it is Easter Weekend so we thought we would give it a try. Anyway here goes nothing...

This week's  Jacket has been titled "Holy Jacket" because he is the Jacket that is representing Holy Week. This Jacket has a much more powerful beard than the real Jacket does. Jacket likes to keep his beard neat but Holy Jacket enjoys the power. I imagine this is the length that Jesus would have kept his beard over two thousand years ago but who knows really. I hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. For all our Jewish fans out there I hope you have a blessed Passover, for all the Christian Jacket of the Week fans I hope you have a Happy Easter and for all the people like Jacket I hope all your grooves stay very crunchy. Until next time...

Keyboard Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week readers. This might be the greatest day of your life. First of all the Mega Millions Jackpot is up to 640 million and will probably reach 690 million by the time of the drawing. What would you do with all that money? How much do you think it would cost to buy Jacket? Just outright purchase him, as a commodity. Around 5 million? 7 million? It wouldn't be more than 7 million I can tell you that right now. The guy is no longer in his prime.  I think his friends and family would agree that was a fair price.  Secondly and more importantly, it's the day of the week where we reveal the Jacket of the Week. We have been on a roll these last couple of weeks, rolling out guys that have a striking resemblance to our associate (friend?) Jacket. This week is no different.  This week's Jacket differs from the real Jacket in that he is completely bald. And the real Jacket is probably more handsome than this guy.  Other than that they certainly could be related. So without further ado... This week's Jacket of the Week...

How did we find this Jacket that has been titled "Keyboard Jacket"? The decision-makers at Jacket of the Week were watching Conan O'Brien last night and the band Galactic were performing. I looked at the man on the keys and I said, "Is that Jacket?" Alas, Jacket has not joined a touring funk band. But he did look a hell of a lot like him. I made a note of this and now we are blessed to have "Keyboard Jacket" (real name Richard Vogel) join our closet that now comprises some great looking jackets. I hope everyone enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. I know I will certainly be enjoying his crunchy grooves that he plays. Until next time... 

Office Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week fans. We are back with another addition to our closet. What a great day. We have outstanding weather, the weekend is upon us and most importantly we will reveal another Jacket to the world. We are looking forward to another solid post this week. We had gotten off track three weeks ago when we went with the puppy-licking Jacket and then followed that up with Vest (Keith Jardine). It was like the episode of Blossom when Tony, Blossom's older brother, breaks his two year sobriety with some late night solitary boozing.Things can get weird when you do that and that's what happened here at Jacket of the Week. But like Tony we've gotten ourselves back on track. This week's addition to the team is a working Jacket, a bread-winning Jacket. While I do not imagine this Jacket to be making a serious amount of money, he is nonetheless gainfully employed and building his career. We are proud of this fact.  The biggest difference between The Real Jacket and this week's Jacket is that this week's Jacket has a much bigger nose. The Real Jacket's nose is not particularly big. Also I imagine the Real Jacket makes more money than this Jacket.  And now to the unveiling...

This week's Jacket has been titled "Office Jacket" because this picture was taken at his office. I enjoy that fact that Office Jacket can dress casually at work. He has papers on his desk and a map on his wall so it's obvious Office Jacket has important tasks he must conquer each and everyday. I would personally like to thank Office Jacket for all his hard work trying to protect us and from weird zoning laws and bureaucratic red tape. Thank you Office Jacket. I hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week. Until next time.  

Everyday Jacket

Hello, Jacket of the Week fans. Yes it is that day. The day when you get to view another installment of the famed Jacket of the Week. Today should be a good day for all, with the NCAA tournament entering it's second day and St. Patrick's Day a mere 24 hours away. For those of you that didn't know, The Real Jacket's Alma Mater went bust yesterday. So if you had no idea where Jacket went to college, (university as our friends in Canada call it) you can now narrow it down to the 8 teams that lost yesterday. And then further deduce it down to 7 teams because clearly Jacket didn't go to Harvard. Now let's move on to much more important matters than the NCAA tournament, which would be the Jacket of the Week. 

This week's addition to the lineup of Jackets is a friendly Jacket. He seems like a Jacket you would want to be around.  An everyday Jacket, if you will. That is why we have titled this week's Jacket "Everyday Jacket." This week's Jacket is a little bit less handsome than the real Jacket. But he is an outdoorsman. He's all American. And he loves his dog. The Real Jacket would like to think of himself as an All-American Jacket. But I think the Real Jacket has become an indoor jacket in his advanced age, a domesticated jacket. Clearly not an All-American Jacket. I cannot allow you to wait any longer.  Now the moment of your week. The reason you get out of bed Monday through Friday.  The unveiling of this week's installment of Jacket of the Week.

Is this Jacket's identical twin brother? No? It's not. But does he look 400 times more like Jacket than last week's addition? Yes, yes he does. And he could pass as Jacket's fraternal twin? Probably.  Here we see "Everyday Jacket" enjoying the company of his best friend Brutus on a Saturday afternoon. Brutus appears to be having a grand old time living his life with his buddy "Everyday Jacket."  A great moment in time that was captured and now forever immortalized as a Jacket of the Week. We are proud to add "Everyday Jacket" to our growing roster of Jackets. I hope you enjoyed this week's installment of Jacket of the Week. Until next time. 

Vest

Hello Jacket of the Week readers. We are back for another installment of Jacket of the Week. As Jacket of the Week continues to grow and build it's fanbase to previously unseen levels there is a fear that this blog will lose it's identity and begin to post pictures of people that look nothing like Jacket. This is exactly what is going to happen this week at least 15 weeks too soon. Today's submission is a request from one of Jacket of the Week's biggest supporters. This week's Jacket isn't really a Jacket at all.  Facially he looks nothing like Jacket. Jacket is a much better looking man than is this week's installment. Also this man like last week's submission is totally bald. Jacket still has numerous active follicles on his head. This week's Jacket has a goatee and lacks the classic sweet Jacket beard. And their hair color is also totally different. (Eyebrows and facial hair obviously). There is nothing that even resembles the real Jacket except they both are lacking hair on the top of their head and they both have some facial hair. Now for the unveiling...

This week Jacket is titled "Vest". It is titled "Vest" because a Vest is kind of like a Jacket but not. "Vest" is actually MMA star (star being used in a very broad sense, gate-keeper is probably a better term) Keith "The Dean of Mean" Jardine. Jardine has been a weekly request for the last three weeks. My reservations on posting a picture of Jardine are vast. First of all for the enumerated reasons above (he looks nothing like Jacket) and secondly most people have no idea who he is. It is also debatable if he was ever an elite level mixed martial artist.  So we might as well just post some nobody that actually looks like Jacket. The good news is the daily email requests will stop cluttering the Jacket of the Week mail box. The bad news we have completely sacrificed the purpose of the blog to appease irrational fan behavior.  I hope you enjoyed this week's Jacket of the Week.

Not every Jacket fits...

Hello. What a great time of the week this is for everyone. Not only is both your work-day and work-week winding down to a close but more importantly it is time for the latest Jacket of the Week posting. This week's photo has been titled "Uncomfortable Jacket" because this Jacket makes me uncomfortable. Not every Jacket out there is going to be about good times, crunchy tunes, and sweet beards. You may come across a Jacket in life that just doesn't get it. I believe this Jacket has some issues that need to worked out. First of all he hardly resembles the Real Jacket at all. The Real Jacket has brown hair and "Uncomfortable Jacket" has red hair, well a red beard anyway. Also "Uncomfortable Jacket" is completely bald while the Real Jacket is not. Finally the Real Jacket is a normal, rational person. I'm not so sure about "Uncomfortable Jacket." Now to the moment you build your week around, the unveiling of this week's Jacket of the Week.

Most people think, “Awww, look at that, a puppy licking someone's face.” That would not be an unusual reaction for most but then you notice that our friend, (a loosely used term in this case) "Uncomfortable Jacket," is also licking the puppy. He is reciprocating the licking. But there is nothing to find endearing about this scenario, it's just disturbing. First of all nobody wants dog fur on their tongue. Let's get that straight right now. Secondly, I'm uncomfortable with the way he is embracing this young dog. There is nothing appealing about an adult male holding a puppy. People associate innocence with puppies. This guy over here is nothing but innocent. This man is portraying himself as a pervert. And I am not comfortable with that. That concludes this week’s Jacket of the Week. I hope you found it to be enlightening. I most certainly did.

Our 3rd Jacket

Hello Jacket of the Week Fans. Today is the 3rd installment of the Jacket of the Week. This week's Jacket has been titled "Quick Look Jacket". We found this Jacket after a very strategic google search. The search words were "bald" "beard". As you can imagine a lot of time and energy went into that search. Now  if you give this week's installment a quick look you'd swear it was the Jacket himself. But it is quite easy to realize after even a cursory examination that this cannot be the real Jacket. "Quick Look Jacket" is probably a notch or two above Jacket in the handsome scale. At least it seems that way. Maybe the real Jacket has better eyes than "Quick Look" but we'll never really know for sure.

As you can see  there is wording across the eyes and a big X though his face. But he seems handsome anyway. When I gave it a quick look during the strenuous and time-consuming google search my first thought was, "Jacket?" And thus he became this week's edition.  I hope everyone enjoys this week's version of Jacket of the Week. I look forward to next week's installment of another person that looks strikingly like Jacket.

Jackets Everywhere

Hello internets. This blog is known as the Jacket of the Week. The blog started when I found a photo that resembled my friend Jacket. I emailed the photo to our mutual friends and they agreed that the photo looked just like Jacket. That was the impetus for a weekly email of a photo of a random person that looks like Jacket. Also known as the Jacket of the Week.

Above you can find the first ever Jacket of the Week (middle). Oddly enough the real Jacket actually knows this Jacket. They went to high school together. How difficult that must have been for their teachers and fellow students to differentiate the two. This Jacket was been titled, "Bigger Bolder Jacket."











The next week's addition featured a Jacket that we felt resembled a younger potentially more full figured version of Jacket. I don't know how or where we found this Jacket but we found him. Present day Jacket does not have the flowing locks that the below Jacket currently possesses. But like all Jackets I'm sure this Jacket will not be in possession of this majestic mane for much longer. This Jacket has been titled, "Flowing Mane Jacket."

Week 3's version of Jacket will be posted on Friday in keeping with the long and illustrious history of the Jacket of the Week tradition.
