Like most of the guys on Pelican, I care almost as much about Paris fashions as I do about the royal family in England. My old mowing shoes mean more to me than the royals and the Paris fashions together, as my mowing shoes have a function and affect me personally.

All the geezers like me remember some of the stupid fashions of the 70s and 80s. I can remember trying to buy a normal pair of jeans and all that was available were bell bottoms, or even worse the "elephant leg" bells. I had to resort to Levis 501s with the stupid button fly to find jeans with no bell bottoms, all because the fashion houses in the Yankee lands decided we need a new style. Eff em.

My mom brought home a Lime Green Leisure suit for me. I felt like the kid on Christmas Story with the bunny suit he had to wear. I never wore it again. When I was packing up to leave home and go be an adult, I left it in the closet. She somehow managed to pack it into my stuff I hauled to Oklahoma when I moved. I sold it at the first garage sale years later and the kid wanted a Halloween costume.

All that silly Paris fashion stuff is to get us to post photos and talk about it. I will talk abnout it and point fingers and laugh at how stupid it is. Bah Humbug! Get off my lawn.
