It's not a pay issue. Some people are just hopeless. I think sebby would be doing the pencil necks a favor if he emailed them a link to his post. But he's probably to selfish to do that.

Zegna won't fix that. Zegna collars hang low.
I wouldn't be caught dead in a Zegna dress shirt. The spread collars are American/Euro modified. I buy traditional English spreads from England. And they're not as expensive as the Zegna stuff.
Now, Borelli and Brioni... those are some nice shirts. I'd wear those mofified spreads. But I ain't spending $300+ for an off the rack shirt. And the collars on Turnbull & Assers suck.
That said, I have a Zegna suit made from some weird rayn/wool blend that I love. So fucking comfortable.

Please settle a bet
There is a dude on the desk who swears there is some race car driver (I think) whose name is Dick Trickle.
He says that no matter where the guy finishes in the race, the announcers on Sports Center never forget to mention him. (e.g., Jeff Gordon won the race, yadda yadda. Side note -- Dick Trickle finished 30th.)
Is this true?

I wrote about it elsewhere and got many scathing replies. You recall that.

Thanks, man. He just sent me this. How unfortunate (although I guess he's lucky because he always gets mentioned on Sports Center?)

Oh, yeah. I can see all the endorsement contracts flying his way now.

Anything Dominick Dunne fancies should be off limits unless you're looking for some geriatric tail.

How about an ascot or a ruffled shirt? I favour both.

I may want to hire this Mr. Trickle to promote a pair of protective pants for the couture commando set.
