In my initial blog posting I will try to accomplish several things. I will of course offer up some recent life observations and things that drive me crazy but I will also lament on having given in to society’s pressure to become one with the internet. I have resisted Facebook and MySpace thus far but the blog industry has pulled me in…
I’m gonna makes this first post short and sweet. At least I’ll try. Who knows, once I get started its hard for me to apply the brakes.
So I was at a wedding this past weekend and something absolutely drove me crazy. I couldn’t understand it. There was a guy at my table who did not for one second take his suit jacket off. The worst part is that he did not even unbutton his suit jacket. How in the hell do you sit for 6 hours at a table and not unbutton your suit jacket?
This drove me crazy!
Its one thing to not even remove your jacket. Fine. Ok for whatever reason you like keeping your jacket on. I have no problem with that. Do I support that – not necessarily. Do I get it – sure. Whatever floats your boat. But to keep your three-button suit jacket all bundled up screams a need for therapy.
He seemed like a good guy. Polite and all. I had no problem with that. Probably a great guy. His fiancé was very nice as well. She seemed to have her life in order and unlike her man knew how to dress. The question is – if you took her aside and asked her what the hell her man was doing with his jacket on and buttoned from 5:30-midnight what would she say?
I think she’d say it drove her crazy!

Did he have all three buttons buttoned? Please tell me that the bottom one was undone. That would just be tacky. :) Good to see you making use of technology. Welcome to the year 2000!
First of all, maybe, he had a stain or a burn mark from a hot iron on his mid-section. Second maybe he suffers from some kind of fear or phobia of opening up to people like strangers (at a wedding). But the obvious reason is this... Whether he was buttoned or unbuttoned, Jacket on or off, the fact of the matter is that there was no way he was going to look as good as Greco!!! And if you pulled his woman to the side and asked her, she would have said " God Damn, I wish he looked half as good as you... here's my number!!!"
I don't know what's worse: You checking some guy out for 6 hours straight OR that Anthony is one of those guys that consistently keeps his jacket on and buttoned at weddings.
