Guys: Do Not Get Carried Away With Fashion
Hey guys! Get carried away with fashion at your peril! Fashion is best left to the chicks. That might sound sexist, but it’s true. You’re just not genetically programmed for fashion. Women are.
Having said that, there is one area of fashion where men seem to do alright. That’s in the area of wristwatches. Men are watch fetishists, just like women are shoe fetishists. That seems to make them good at choosing watches.
A watch does much more than tell the time. It tells the world a whole story about you. Let’s take a men’s sport watch, for example. If a guy is wearing a waterproof watch, that suggests he’s into water sports. Look closely and you can tell whether or not he’s really into water sports or is just a poser. If you know he’s not a millionaire but he’s wearing an expensive one, he’s a poser. No real surfer or sailor would wear an expensive watch in the water. It’s too risky.
Then there are watches with leather wristbands. A leather watch can be the fashion statement par excellence and amazingly, most men seem to know which ones are tasteful and which ones are not. Okay, it’s not that hard a decision: gold or silver for the timepiece and brown or black for the band. Still, very few men get it wrong when it comes to their wristwatches.
Shoes are another matter altogether. There’s nothing uglier than a pair of leather brown boots, but men everywhere wear them with pride. Somehow they think they make them look macho or something. They don’t, not unless they’re actually worn for doing something macho. Going out for Sunday brunch in a pair of boots just looks stupid. End of argument!
Remarkably, it is possible to make an even worse decision. Some men decide that since it’s Sunday, they have a right to wear their cheap flip-flops to Sunday brunch. How embarrassed their wives or girlfriends must be when they come walking into a nice restaurant with a man who is attracting attention to his ugly feet with his noisy sandals!
We just won’t go into the clothing issue other than to say, thank god men are conservative. Since all men tend to wear almost exactly the same thing to work, they can do so without causing anybody distress. Don’t ever risk trying something new. It could cost you everything.
You’ve only got one style option, guys: you can safely choose your own wristwatch. Other than that, leave fashion to the girls.

Lucky Man $5.85 The lustrous Chicago blues scene of the 1950s was predominated by great pianists, and Henry Gray was one of the finest. His rolling two-fisted keyboard work graced countless Chicago blues recordings during the ’50s, and Henry spent twelve years as pianist for the legendary Howlin’ Wolf. This session, recorded in 1988, marked something of a comeback for Henry who had recorded only sporadically in t… |

Superbus $11.38 Finally, a damnable 12 years later, here it is… and it’s even better!!!! Unlike Tricycle, you won’t need a while to discern the full depth of their interplay and extrapolations on simple chords (something they inherited from The Feelies, via Velvet Underground), as this recording is popping at the seams (kudos producer James Mastro, guitarist of recently reunited Bongos).
