SHE FORGOT TO MENTION…
Sartorial Splendor
My good friend Susan Madrak of Suburban Guerrilla, in writing up our evening at Philadelphia’s incomparable White Dog Cafe, just happened to mention that I "looked spiffy as hell in a freshly starched DKNY white shirt."
What she failed to mention was that I also was wearing a classic four-button Calvin Klein sport coat, a Versace belt, Gucci shoes, a Breitling watch, and carrying a Prada wallet.
Not that it matters, but chew on that, asshole. You know you are. And all the paid advertising in the world won’t lift your sorry-ass perpetually self-referential blog (Who cares about your family?) -- or your dick -- higher than four or five hits on my referral log.
[Post-publication addendum (June 11): Several readers wrote to inquire about the pants I was wearing at White Dog Cafe's "Table Talk" with Eric Alterman. Truth be told, I wasn't wearing any pants. Hey, it's a look. No, just kidding, the pants are from Banana Republic, as were the socks. (Sorry, the guy just eats this stuff up.) And I will not now, nor ever in the future, answer the question, "Boxers or briefs?" Some women seem to get a real charge out of posing that juvenile inquiry. Here's a tip, guys: If you're asked "Boxers or briefs?" ask in return, "Do you wear big underwear or little underwear or no underwear at all?"]
[Post-publication addendum (June 12): For another take on all this, see the Pennsylvania Gazette.]
