Chappy, salmon—the color? Or do you sling salmon fish around your neck? At this point, I wouldn’t assume anything! Ha, ha

This is a realtor in my office… Argyle and Nickers are his signature

That is literally his daily attire. 7 days a week… minus the golf cleets of course.

Well..don’t let Colonel fool ya…I’m pretty sure he is very fond of orange too!?

Where I grew up back East..wearing a “Nikki-Hoi” flower-patterned Hawaiian shirt every “Gonzo Friday” was mandatory for everyone! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4u2-FxVNDqc
I’m not kiddin’ either…read that first comment posted on that YouTube thread!

Sherri,
Orange is my Fav color… The face of my watch is even orange. My attire is pretty crazy… I where fuscia ties, pink shirts, Paisley embossed white silk (Love that shirt… Consignment out of NYC), Turquoise and lots of salmon… You never know. Never flower prints though. That stupid hibiscus or palm fronds and monkeys print is soooo played out. Hate busy patterns…

Not that any of it matters but, I do love colors.

Hey..Face Pic!! (did we get that one?) Sorry, still a little after-effects of the FP phenomenon! Very nice, Michael!

Chappy…don’t worry—you look great in that bright orange; not all guys can wear that color you know! I think the other fellas are just a bit envious! :-)

Lol colonel, that is actually pretty close to the outfit except there is no yellow in the shorts and my shirt really is so bright it’s truly nauseating. And never wear argyle with shorts.

Always love your art.. I have thick skin so no worries… very appropriate.

Now wouldn’t be a good time to mention we are mid-summer in New Zealand? 23C (73F) today but I spent New Year in South Australia, got 42C (108F) one day. Lots of cold beer and soaking in the balmy Tasman Sea seemed to help. Going to South Africa in a month, hot and humid there. “Warm” wishes to you all.

Hey Michael, howabout

  • Don’t pour hot water on your ice covered windshield (it cracks) and I don’t mean the ice.

Alan, that sounds like the most miserable bad luck. I can’t imagine there being many wimps up there…now Florida on the other hand…HAAAHA Chappy you know I’m kidding. There is nothing wimpy about a plaid sweater vest wearing warrior on the links in his Bermuda shorts and argyle knickers.

another thing not to do is start your old beater truck to warm up at work and leave it for 45 minutes..it airlocked.. overheated.. 2 hrs later while replacing heater hose and thermostat in -35 windchill I am finally home having a hot rum toddy and barely thawed out… :(

Things not to do at -28C;

*Sit on vinyl seats before warming up car ( they tend to split and crack).
*Play Frisbee (they tend to shatter).
*Sniff (icy).
*Park in puddles the day before (your stuck).
*Drink that bottle of everclear that you left in the car (if you already did that then, well, your probably not reading this). haha!

This morning I was getting ready to have a hot espresso when….one of those furry long tailed rats gnawed on the power lines. As I yelled, “NOoo!” with fists of rage!
I’d hate to see the destruction those Texan rats could do.

brrr…Hey Betsy the word got out in Squirrel land that I got BB guns for Xmas. They used to greet me at the “hatch” growling when I popped my head up there, but as soon as I armed myself…they got smarter. I’m hoping that snow outside will keep your squirrels from finding their way…directions and all. There IS a maximum capacity up in my attic (ya’ know…fire standards), and we are WAY past it already…and Texan squirrels gotta be biggerer!

My niece actually just got married there with a singing Elvis—and had the whole thing live streamed on the Internet. I mean, is that romantic or what?! Ha,ha. Here’s another true tidbit…when I was 16, I went to LV, saw Elvis perform, kissed him and got his scarf. For years I kept that scarf on an Elvis poster in the attic. But eventually when I went to retrieve it, it had been chewed up by SQUIRRELS!

Hear that little squirrel? That’s when I got rid of the squirrels in my attic once and for all… and gave them directions to Biskits house!!!! :-)
