Yes, I have a talent for strange facial expressions and yes, I have a dropped right shoulder unaccounted for in this suit.



I like everything until we get to the timepiece over the shirt cuff... you ain't agnelli

Gentlemans, would a lightblue shirt with a navy blue tie with white dots work better with the outfit I posted? Or is a white shirt the best way?

Having some guests over on friday and wanna know for sure :)

Either will work but for i'd wear the white one for night time. Something like this or swap the suit for charcoal.

That's the way it's said. I hereby induct you into the international pirate's union. You can pick up your cutlass and pistol at the door, rum's in the barrel.


Leaving the Welshman out of the pirate's union? Really? And after all we've done for the trade, too.

:confused:

for some reason i always had the notion that the "R" stood for rudy, so i never made the pirate connection. always read in my mind as rudy diaz not ARRRRRDiaz.
