..... but I won't buy clothing with a logo, either....


When I was a kid I thought I was deformed. My grandmother worked at a
discount clothing store and all my underwear were marked "Irregular".

My uncle was a manufacturer's rep for a number of New England sporting
goods manufacturers. I got all sorts of "seconds." They look good to me.


Now, one of my buddies was smart enough to date the daughter of the owner
of a well-known manufacturer of men's shirts. He went out with her all the
way through high school, and was much better dressed than the rest of us.


I know no shirts are made in New Haven anymore. But when I was growing up,
we had lots of clothing factories.


Gant? His son Steve was in my class. Knew him well.

This weekend my wife was talking to friends who want to go to the St
Pete sailboat show. I'll have to ask em what it costs. I told her
"Maybe, if we can sail down there from here", its about 160 miles.
They mentioned exhibits of some kind. I assume there is stuff besides
boats and this may be ok cuz I really do not want another boat. Or,
we could trailer the Tolman down there and run around Egmont Key,
something I have always wanted to do.


Careful. If it's an 'in-water' show, there may not be a place to tie up.
They tend to take all the available space for the show.
