Zimmer’s Worth and Great Gigglin’ Hendricks

DAPPERED PRE-SCHOOL:

I have no idea what Pinterest is (ahem) but apparently there’s a place there called My Imaginary Well Dressed Toddler Daughter. Also, apparently, sons.

YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE THE WAY I LITIGATE? The Men’s Warehouse saga continues.  This is going to get far messier before things are cleaned and pressed and ready for the showroom. Also, stranger, by the looks of this. Finally, employees have a request for their customers.

THE SCIENTIFIC STYLE GUIDE #24: Sometimes keeping it simple is the best approach. I have always liked plain white t’s (But not the band. Those guys are kinda lame).

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN MULHOLLAND DRIVE AND TWIN PEAKS: From somewhere out on that lost highway…wow.

PROTEST SONG OF THE DAY: Timely and classic.

The British Ska movement of the late 70’s early 80’s provided a voice for the underserved classes in Thatcher’s England. While much of the music was often political this track, in retrospect, seems more celebratory than anything else. Also, moving.

MEANWHILE…steady progress in an attempt to make Bangladesh factories safer for workers.

SOUNDS LIKE SUMMER: For some, a trip down memory lane, for others, dustin’ off the oldies.

SMOKE & GIGGLES:

MEH: I’m going to wait for something a bit more Dapperedesque. I mean, really.

ONLINE PRIVACY: Here’s what you should be worrying about. Then there’s this, which I for one am happy to read about. No more handing out those digits for me.

WHAT’S IN A NAME? For one of the country’s biggest fast food operators, it’s about steering clear of tainted nomenclature. So…does that mean that’s it’s only 35 (or 11) % whatever it’s called?

INCOMING: (OK…next year. But still)

Need something else to read?

• Now that I’m ready to step up my look (the Tim Improvement Project version 2.0 is seeing results), I really needed this information.
• With the temperatures heating up, you might be styling down. This might come in handy.
• Because really, there is a way to get this domestic stuff done that doesn’t ruin your day.
