    "Hardcore Tweedists"

    They will shortly make inroads in the hip-hop crowd. I've met you (at Sara's house) so I for one can vouch for your sanity.

    Gin vs Vodka (Martini)

    Oh yes -- glass should be frozen, but I can tolerate it if it is not.

    Gin vs Vodka (Martini)

    It is not a martini if it is not in a martini glass. A martini glass is a sine qua non for a martini.

    "Hardcore Tweedists"

    Lots of tweed here, especially my 3 piece Donegal tweed late 1930s suit -- but never in the Summer! I'm in California.

    UGLY TIE CONTEST: $500 PRIZE

    UGLY TIE CONTEST: $500 PRIZE
