Ah, this brings back memories of dating HPM, back when he still had what I call his plaid "clown" pants!

Pocket protector
I do not own one of these, since I never carry a pen in my pocket.

Please, some geek, give me a home!

My Dad is a machinist/engineer and my brother a machinist/engineer/programmer. Neither of them were amused the time I got them pocket protecters!

Of course, it could be worse. I worked with a programmer who was forever forgetting to cap his felt-tip pens before putting them in his pocket, sans protector, of course. Every shirt this guy owned had a stain on the pocket.

I want to hear more about those 'clown pants' of HPM's. ;)

Oh they were from the early 90s. Bright, baggy plaid pants, heavier weight than pajama bottoms. He wore them everywhere. Even on dates.

we need a vote on chest hair, some women like it (yeah twiggy) some don't (boooo Tango)

dhutch, what is considered overboard like a guy has control of that unless he wants to shave his chest or use Nair constantly

There's nothing worse than having that happen to a decent suit if you put pens in the inside pocket.

THe clown pants weren't bad, it was when he wore them with the houndstooth patterned sneakers that it was bad!

overboard on the chest hairs is when you can weave an indian blanket with it.

Love to run my fingers through chest hair. Overboard is when you resort to augmenting it with roadkill.

It was required attire for pro-am skateboarders back in the day.

I went looking online for a photo and found out a bunch of the guys I used to ride with are now Pros. Pretty cool.

No, HPM's hair doesn't stink. It does have a life of its own, though.

Ya'll had me worried there was some wicked serious termoil going on. I should of know better.

Twig!!
For the record, I am NOT wearing flannel with a turtle neck (gayer!! Not that there is anything wrong with that) . .

Casual Friday at work.

LIght khakis (dockers), Timberland shoes, Burgundy shirt with white thin plaid lines running through it, heather green merino wool v-neck sweater pulled over that.

Weekends.


Gray champion/college type t-shirt and over that an LL Bean canvas, flannel lined shirt, unbuttoned and untucked. Levi's 501 button fly jeans, and smart wool socks, and trail shoes (those low cross breed hiking boots/sneakers).

Are you trying to impress us with your fashion savvy?

You pass, for casual. Gives me an idea though.

Dear Dutchy:
Dear Dutchy:

I have been reading your column for years, but have never written. My Black mock turtle neck has faded. It is now a lighter shade of pale, errrr black.

Shoud I:

1) replace it
2) use a different laundry soap
3) replace myself
4) shoot myself
5) buy full blown turtle necks
6) buy flannel



Sincerely,

Lee in CT

That was pretty funny Twigeater, about the turtlenecks....

Okay, here's my two cents.....uhh...no turtlenecks please...they only work for doing outdoor stuff. As for the button-up, that I'd go for...Twig, I agree only unbutton one from the top, otherwise your gonna look soo 80ish(can you say John Travolta.

StoveStomper, a nice solid color, say a light grayish button-up with nice fitting khakis(you know to show the nice tight buttocks :), if you've got some nice ones)LOL....anyway, that's my suggestion.

How's that for fashion.
I bought two pullovers today. Man am I stylin. I also purchased workout shorts and boxer briefs. I am off to get jeans on the morrow. The only fashion change that I make is to change my hikin boots, black belt and baseball cap to longer jeans, cowboy boots, different belt, and cowboy hat. I do have some dockers but I am not sure if they fit.

Lobo - only real cowboys should wear cowboy boots. Are you a cowboy? If so....

Lee - Woolite now makes a detergents to keep your dark colors from fading. Replace the mock turtle and get some new Woolite.

skeetah - that's a nice outfit suggestion too! For the holidays I would say men can get away with a bright color too. I disagree with the turtleneck comment however. I'm talking about a nice cotton blend rib knit. A cozy turtle is going to be too warm for hiking. Go witht he wicking poly turtle. REI sells a nice one that's a pretty good bargain.

Oh and please boys, no acrylic. It makes, oops us ladies itch.

Ha - now I'm even cracking myself up!

I lost my bovines when I moved and received my divorce. I do hope to get the little buggers back some day when I have a place to keep them. Right now I am runnin a few head of hampsters in the back 40 feet. Does anyone know where I can pick up an itty-bitty brandin iron so I can brand their itty-bitty butts. My fingers ain't tiny enough to get the casturatin done so this may pose a problem to my hamster operation.

lol Lobo. What else you do with those hamsters. Are you sure they're not gerbils?

I thank that I might try ta crossbreed the hamsters with some Gerbils. Better yet I thank that I might crossbreed some moles and gerbils, I'll calls em molbils. I only live six hours from San Fran so the market should be good. Do I need to casturate gerbils or will they do ok with all of their equipment. They sure are cute little fella's but I thank that I will stick to breedin my own kind if ya'll don't mind. I am kinda partial to all of you little ladies. I was kind of a cowboy so can I still wear my boots. "and if so"? that kinda left me hangin dhutch and lizs lets not git to talkin about casturatin, the word doesn't really make me feel warm and fuzzy.

After that discussion, wear the boots. Maybe you can brand 'em with the head of a pin held in a flame. Castrate them with your fingernail scissors?? They're in the manicure set you probably received some Christmas' ago.

Now you go round up them dogies!
