the summer cut

summer seems to have finally come to the northwest corner of yankistan, and so it's time once again for the summer cut, which is about 1/2 inch all around with a wahl electric hair trimmer. and what goes right with a summer cut? let's see...


That's right folks. It's the venerable all-cotton Munsingwear Golf Pro short sleeved button-down stripey. Worn with a pair of Donna Karan fitted gray slacks and some vintage Sears black brogues, plus my prescription green glass James Bond specs with the chrome frames, I feel fit for showing myself in public once again. And with weather like this, who knows, I just might.

take the suedeheads bowling

after taking my daughter to her very first bowling alley, i was immediately taken by the snappy new bowling shoes they happened to offer for hire, which were in a color palette not far off from the rastafarian flag.

the old school type of bowling shoe you and i would likely find in a thrift shop are hard to find, new or new-ish, online. these come fairly close. whoops, i see one of those pesky little RAF target symbols.....something tells me there's a bit of the secret handshake going on here, nudge nudge.
