    Well crap!

    I get to meet the Governor on Thursday morning for some sort of hokey award ceremony (military related). Just a photo op for the Governor really, but what the heck? Problem is, I'm supposed to wear "business casual attire" because I'll be having my pic taken with the Governor when the award is given. Dang it! I'm so frigging fat, the only things I have that fit are Levis and Hawaiian shirts! Ya' think that's too casual?

    Crap ... I haven't had to wear "business" attire in a zillion years.

    Anybody gots a pair of 44X32 slacks and prolly about a size 54 jacket I can borrow?

    Wear whatever you want. It's your ceremony not some fat cat politicians. And what the hell does "business casual" mean anyway? Be comfortable and fuck 'em all.

    Well, just wear this outfit....it's "casual", and you're definitely "down to business" in those vittles.

    All o'youse can bite me! Heck, I'm not sure Johnboy ... I'd imagine dress slacks w/shirt & tie ... not my usual jeans & t-shirt. I guess that would include decent shoes instead of my usual flip-flops ... or my more "formal" sneakers.

    I would like to look at least a LITTLE bit presentable ... I mean, I'll be posing for pictures with the Governor and all. I wouldn't want my grandkids to grow up thinking Grandpa was a slob! No wait! Grandkids??? What am I thinking?

    Business casual is khakis and polo. No tie. No jacket.

    Yep, that's what all the bankers wear on "casual Fridays" around here.

    Be sure to tell the Governor you are the keymaster!
