The wrist watch, the Cross pen, cufflinks (when appropriate), tie clip, lapel pin; each tastefully worn, not overdoing it by loading up, add a layer of class. A proper tailored or fitting dress shirt is essential. Tucker Carlson is an example of what not to wear. He's better than he was but still pretty shabby. Pet peeve---button down collars with suits or God forbid, double breasted jackets. For me, button down collars are to be worn with sport jackets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A co-worker gave me Buffalo Bills cufflinks. I have not worn them and likely never will. LOL 1 minute ago, 3rdnlng said: A proper tailored or fitting dress shirt is essential.

I bought $2,000 worth of suits from Nordstrom. Well I obviously wasn’t done losing weight. The pants are too loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatcha do, switch to low fat Doritos after a toke or two? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed my diet. Cut the carbs as best I could. Cut out the booze for the most part. And the last 10 lbs that I could not loose for the life of me came off after I cut sugar. Luckily I don't toke that often. Couple times a month. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should buy a few copies & leave them lying around the office as a subtle way of telling those people they're idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 People are criticizing Gladys Knight for accepting the invitation to sing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl. CNN reports. My reaction is, in this order: 1. Don't criticize Gladys Knight, 2. Don't make singing the National Anthem into a bad thing, 3. The question of protesting the National Anthem is separate, and if you want to defend the players who have been protesting, you're making a big leap if you go from arguing that the protest is respectful, respectable, and permissible to saying that protest is required and anyone not protesting is to be disrespected, 4. Those who are making that big leap are confirming the fears of the kind of people who worry that once something is permitted we're on a slippery slope to its being required.

Next time he should just go with "anomaly". 100% of those folks understandably upset over "Black Swan" won't understand that either, and it'll be funny as #@!# watching their frustration as they try to Google "nomuhlee". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've known many WW2 vets, including my father, and while I get what Barbasol is trying to do, I find it pretty tacky. Between the ping simulating the helmet, and the guy casually tossing a potato masher back toward the enemy like it's a newspaper that flew into a fox hole, its cheesey.
