Once upon a time, there was a boy named Joseph who lived in Israel as the son of Jacob and grandson of Isaac. Joseph grew up in a family that had many sons leaving him with little attention, especially from his father. However, Jacob actually did favor Joseph as his favorite son giving him a special coat as a gift that earned the envy of all of his brothers because they thought he would become the eventual leader of the family while they would be neglected. Joseph made the situation even worse when he told two of his brothers that he dreamt that he saw his brothers bowing down to him. When Joseph was 17, most of the brothers conspired to kill him while his oldest brother convinced the others that they should only throw him into a pit of salt planning to rescue Joseph in secret. In a sad turn of events, the other brothers sold Joseph as a slave to passing traders after dragging him out of the quarry. They then drenched Joseph's coat in goat blood to give to their father saying Joseph had been killed by a wild beast.
While I don't own any piece of clothing that can compare to the awesomeness of Joseph's coat, I do own a "puffy" vest that keeps me super warm = happy. Over the course of my life, I have owned several of these vests because they seem to work for the fall, winter, and spring seasons when the weather is not too great. Additionally, the vest is pretty comfortable and not to bulky like a lot of coats so it is probably my favorite piece of clothing.
Pretty stylish, huh?
you can pull off a vest like no one else can, big mike
