Oh the irony! I'm in the bloody tropics but Taiwan has been in a cool-streak the last week, and it's just lovely! I wore a suit on Sunday :) It was a tad humid still but wasn't too bad.

Chad- very slick. I think the stingy brms work well for your face but that tie knot is huge!!!

Oh you know what I mean.... and say, what happend to that avatar any way? I thought it was great!

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Is the avatar you're referring to the one of my son with one of my hats? I needed a little change. Too much cute can only be cured with a little HORROR. :D

Nah, it was the one from Brother Where art thou... that's why I mentioned "Man of Constant Sorrow".;)

Here is a suit I would normally consider a winter suit. I love the jacket and wanted a more summer look. So I switched out the matching brown pants for white ones and VIOLLA!

I must add my approval to the list - the whole ensemble looks really good to me !:eusa_clap

Hey Matt, there's an ideal caption for your photo - I'm imagining that just out of shot, there's a guy lying on the ground in a dazed state with baggy denims with the ass just behind the knees - the caption is :- "Before you address me in future sonny, be sure and take off that baseball cap first !"

Here's my Dick Tracy suit & tie, with the hat. All I need now is a yellow trenchcoat and a tommy gun! ;)

..20% more scowling and a two-way wrist radio should do it. ;)

You're off and running, Strider! Funny coincidence, I just saw a 1930s Mallory/Borsalino fedora that made me think "Dick Tracy".
Too bad it's a 6 3/4!

You're going to have a tricky time finding the yellow trench, but a realistic-looking toy tommygun should be pretty easy to spot.

Oh yeah, the Tommy Guns are no problem to find. As for the trench coat, I am going to get a standard khaki colored trench with no liner and dye it yellow with some RIT dye. Maybe get a black trench with no liner, and hit it with some RIT dye remover first, then yellow dye.
