Expect me to be named as a sexual harasser any day now

It’s the double-breasted suits.

I also wear fedoras; might as well have the word “Masher!” tattooed on my forehead.



Me: "Good morning, ma'am. Have a nice day."

My suit: "Hey, baby, want to come upstairs and look at my etchings?"

  1. Ah, but it's a zoot suit that the wolves really dig, daddy-o...

  3. I'm teaching my granddaughters that if anyone comes near them wearing a fedora they should kick hard to the groin, pepper spray to the eyes, scream as loudly as they can, and run!

  4. Steve: And good advice that is, too (as long as it's not a plainclothes detective).

  8. I am sorry to report that all you have to be is a natural-born male to be vulnerable.

  11. Paco, I didn't realize you were like "ministers of a certain persuasion." I'm not sure what that means but I'm under the impression it must be bad.

    I suggest that you confess to people that you've always had an affinity for suits and you can't help it that you were born that way.

  12. Single breasted suits are for metrosexuals and Eurotrash male models.

    And TRY packing a 1911 under one of those pencil-chest outfits...

  13. Confession, for my entire life I've only ever owned or used one (1) necktie. It is very wide and psychedelically coloured, as the style in government offices 40 years ago when I last wore it.

    Also one of my non-related namesakes here tried to pioneer a shirtless safari suit as govt apparel. We didn't use aircon then. Even John Howard tried it.

  14. Paco, here you get all decked out, and look handsome and all that, but forget that last accessory...a smile. Without the smile, you should be holding that shotgun. Think of Mrs. Paco instead of "cheese". It must be a guy thing, cuz Richard did it on our first big date. Very dapper! Pocket watch for Christmas?

  15. Honest, Bruce, I assumed the shirtless safari suit, along with one of those fold-sided hats (possibly even with corks dangling from it) WAS the official Aussie costume...

    I blame Monty Python.

  20. I'm at a loss. The image takes my breath away, because the suit and hat are exactly what my Uncle Fred loved to wear when I was small (circa early 1950s). Of course, he was an alcoholic and, we suspected, somewhat a gangster in the Dixie Mafia mode. Not that there's anything wrong wi... um... never mind.

    (Actually, you look very impressive, and very Detective Paco. There should be gold cufflinks. Tell me there are gold cufflinks.)

  21. There are gold cufflinks (In a drawer. Somewhere).

  22. Am I a Bishop?

    Now that's a bloody good question.
