Wrong headed people

I'm sorry for not posting in awhile. Sadly, I'm busy at work. Which means wearing pants. Which is just depressing.

Speaking of depressing, I just found this article describing these pants that punish and demean you for eating too much. While I hate pants, and I hate that feeling when your pants start to get tight because you've eaten too much, haven't exercised enough, or both, I cannot approve of these.

In happier news, Ned needs your help. His goal may be questionable, but I like to think he's just out to recover his hard-earned property. Poor Ned just needs to relax and stop wearing tighty whiteys.

But we'll help No-Pants Ned along his way here in this fun little free flash game. There are a couple of (disturbing, though perfectly safe for work) click-throughs.

Mad Props to Lady Gaga!

Far, far, far too long since I've posted here. I've been busy not wearing pants. :)

For awhile, I resisted Lady Gaga. I resisted the pop hooks and irresistible dance grooves.

I'm done resisting. I'm down for the count like I would be in the ring with Ali.

Who knew she would lead a fashion revolution? I had hoped it would be me.

Of course, my pantsless agenda was less about fashion than about a way of life - distinguishing between the moments that are genuinely yours and the moments you give to Almighty Dollar and working hard to keep them distinct. Our work lives have been eroding our private lives for far too long. "Work-life balance" is a lie meant to keep you thinking quality time and work time are the same.

Anyway, that's a rant for another day. Today we celebrate Lady Gaga and her movement that keeps lovely ladies out of their pants. This article pretty much says it all.

Thanks, Lady Gaga!

Summer fashion trends

This article indicates that no pants is a fashion trend this year. Of course, the article comes out of Minneapolis, so I doubt the no pants trend will last more than a couple of months there. :)

Fashion news

In for the summer, boo pants!

Of course, if I was a woman, I might never wear pants.

On ties

I like dressing well. This may seem in contradiction to my boo pants philosophy, but it's not. When I have to go out of the house, I want to look my best. When I don't, I clearly define that it is time for fun and relaxation by wearing casual, comfortable and sometimes, I admit, ugly. Ugly has a place.

So I'm browsing the Internet and come across some Burberry sale items. Burberry has nice stuff. And I am a fan of ties. A tie is one of the ways a man can express himself when he dresses professionally.

But I'm not paying $108 for a tie. It's a nice tie, but I can do a lot for $108.

Likewise, this fantastic cashmere muffler. Gorgeous, but $300 is just outrageous.

Sure, I'd look great. I'd look great as I walk into bankruptcy court.
