Without a word, he headed straight for the coat counter, picked out a shabby old tweed jacket, and paid for it "Easy" told me a little later that buying his jacket back was getting to be a regular habit "That's been my favorite smoking jacket for years," he said. "And my wife talks me Into giving it away regularly. Then I get to thinking how much I like it and hurry down to buy that jacket back. This is the third time I've done it!"
