Bonjour y'all!

Yeah, it's been a while since I've updated. School's been pretty nuts these past couple of weeks, but I'm hoping that after the next couple of weeks and things start to wind down, I'll finally be able to do some good old fashion arts.

In the meantime, I'm still thinking about if I should get a new hockey jersey for Christmas. Because my current home jersey is rather threadbare, I wouldn't mind getting a new RBK Edge home jersey for the Leafs.

I know, I know, the Leafs blow, but they're my hometown team, so my loyalty remains with them for better or for worse.

So I'm wondering if I should get that jersey or maybe one of the older jerseys, which are cheaper.

I'm also looking for any tips on preserving them. I'm an anal retentive guy when it comes to my hockey jerseys. Being the kind of guy that usually just throws clothes in a hamper, I actually carefully fold and store my hockey jerseys. So in order to keep them clean, I'm looking for the best way to not only keep them free of stains, but also perserve the colours.

So I have a few options I've been trying out. My go-to method is hand-washing them with Woolite Zero for All Fabrics. It's a gentle enough detergent and does a fairly good job of taking out some of the yellowing that happens on white jerseys. I also use it to preserve my white Leafs hat as well.

I also have at my disposal white vinegar, which I'm told is good at stain removal on whites. For quick stains I've also used those Tide-to-Go sticks, which actually work alright.

Anybody else have any suggestions? Just want to keep all my bases covered.

Well that's the latest report from Jivesland.

Oh and if anybody who watches me is on Twitter, let me know.
