    Hmmm. I think I'd be underdressed in a suit.

    though overdressed in tails.

    In the 30's it would be a tails function
    in the 50's tuxedos

    in the 80's t-shirts

    and nowadays anything goes.

    Though I suggest black tie

    That's what I like. Dress codes established 48 hours in advance.

    I'm also a bit lighter than I was, Matt. It has created difficult choices. It may be a suit with no other options for me, alas. But I am there to meet you, Marc, James, Root, and all the other wonderful friends here. Exciting stuff - clothes secondary.

    I agree. I think that wearing tailcoats on ocean liners -- even British ones -- went out of style not long after the TITANIC went down.


    That said, who cares? If a tailcoat makes you feel good, then by all means wear it. No one is perfect enough to judge you, me, or anyone else on such a matter.

    We'll see if it makes me feel good or not. At any rate, I'll be a shoo-in for the Guy Kibbee Lookalike contest.
    Talk to the hat, pal.

    Start eating ice cream now. That would be my advice.
