And the board dies because everyone runs for cover from the prospect of this place being overrun with all of penske's socks as a result of this post. Nice work.

Continental Vents

Originally posted by sebastian_dangerfield
My wife bought me some Eurpoean suits recently which have what the tailor calls "Continental" side vents, as opposed to the usual middle vent. I'm not sure I dig these vents, but they tell me I'll fuck up the lines on the suits if I convert them toi center vents. My question is, are side vents considered guido-ish like double breasted suits?
The problem with side vents is that they tend to make even the smallest of asses look large. Wide. Most of the salesmen have seen this - if the suit fits just perfect you shouldn't be able to see the side vents - but most of the time, the vents tend to wander apart - creating that wide ass look. A lot of salesmen will offer to close the vents - the tailors do it all the time - and not add a center vent. It preserves the line of the suit. Letterman is about the only guy who can pull off the look - he is tall and slender. On Leno - not so much.

I got all my St Patrick's Daying in over the weekend. The block parties on Saturday from noon until 9:00 pm wore me out. I fear I may be gettting old.

Sebby should love them then. Isn't he assless? I believe that the pneumonic device for remembering this stray fact is "Sebby Is an ass, but he doesn't Have an ass."

Me too. The parade was on Saturday and that's when most people celebrate: 16 hours of drinking starting at 8:45 AM. Ugh. I'm still recovering. It sent me into a downward spiral that I'm still trying to pull out of...I blame the green plaid pants on PLF.

yeah, some of my friends went and got us a spot at 8:30 am. I rolled in around noon and was able to reap the rewards - we had a great spot. conveniently all cell phones were off at 7:30, when they started calling us to come out.

it didn't feel right when I was typing. it. I deleted and put it back in later (timmies be damned). I'm not sure that qualifies as a mneumonic device really. But thankfully I'm not afraid to be wrong.

9:00 p.m.? You should try to find some better ecstasy.

Actually, I still have yet to make it to the parade.
