'Foo - have you announced publicly yet what you're going to wear on-air? I know light-blue looks good on TV, so are you going to wear a light blue dress shirt? What color tie?

Foo - clean out your PM inbox, wanted to follow up on earlier message (nothing to do with this thread).

The important question is... will you mention SF? If not we'll feel slighted, if so, we'll feel outed (in a fight club way, not a fruity way)

Nothing against SF, but come on, people!

Dear God...are you all internerds?

Foofy: what they mean is something that (1) can be soiled, mussed up etc. while you wait to go on and...here's the part that explains (1) which is (2) that is friendly for make-up application.

At a minimum, you'll get powdered. You'll want make-up, so don't be a media n00b and apply forvm or faux-gent standards to that. Appearing on live TV already implies a certain loss of manhood, so suck it up.

If you don't like what it takes to be on TV, just refuse to go on it.

Can't Rubinacci whip you up some Hefner pajamas from your measurements? Get them in midnight blue - I hear it looks black under makeup lights.

If he were alive, Richard Nixon would tell you to heed this advice If I get a vote, DO NOT mention SF. Unless, or course, you want to crash the site's server (a goal with some merit, in that it would increase general productivity for all of us). Good luck

Has anyone here ever actually heard the voice of the Foof? Will it be like the voice of God...He will speak and insanely loud white noise will fill the air, windows will shatter, dark clouds will accululate in the sky, dogs and cats living together...seriously...good luck man.

I think you also might be overthinking this...they probably already have the winner selected, remember it will be ANNOUNCED on the show, not decided. Just wear something casual and bring the outfit you want the world to see.

Again, good luck. I do think that you and Dan T are the two best dressed.

I have no idea why they want me to do this, what it entails, and why I can't just wear the same outfit the whole time. Neither Esquire nor the Today show has responded to my questions.

I know what I'm going to wear on stage, but what the hell do I wear to 'lounge' in? I'll probably just disobey and wear one outfit, but I thought I'd pose the question here: what would a Mafoofan-appropriate lounging outfit look like?*

*I will probably ignore all of your advice and input, but thank you.


They're probably testing you. The answer is, a Lounge Suit, of course.
On second thought, I doubt that the present day Esquire crowd
can even define a Lounge Suit.

I was about to suggest a DJ. That'd be absolutely perfect.

There will be some hilarious signs and faces in those Today Show windows.

I think dopey is taking the morning off...portnoy as well.

GDL will be taking the entire week off.

You should take the day off and stand outside the Rock with a "VOTE FOO" sign

This is really an excellent idea.
