Wit Memo applauds the ejection
of Cindy Sheehan and congressional
wife Beverly Young from the House gallery for wearing war-slogan
T-shirts to the 2006 state of the union speech ... and hopes others
get the same treatment. Where do people get the idea that it's appropriate
to attend such a momentous event in so hallowed a chamber clad in a !%$*&
T-shirt?!
Anyone who smiled when Tony Soprano, dining in fancy Italian
restaurant Vesuvio, bullied a snotty young pencil-neck
into removing his ball cap ("This isn't a ball game, and
you're not eating a hot dog. Take off your hat") must surely agree.
Wit Memo's sainted Mom, who
believed in dressing up for airplane flights, would be spinning in
her grave, if we hadn't sold her cadaver to body-part-harvesting
mobsters.
Wit Memo is tired of feeling overdressed
every time we go out in any kind of trousers besides jeans.
Now ... when are they gonna start giving the bum's rush to old
ladies who enter casinos while wearing pink sweatshirts emblazoned with
teddy bears?
But wait, you say... aren't T-shirt slogans free speech?
Wit Memo sez, if your pet cause is
that important, you should be willing to advertise it on a suit jacket
or evening gown.
Caveat: the above screed does not apply
to hot women wearing today's absurdly low-cut jeans, the ones that
go no higher than the widest part of their hips and expose their cow bones,
the downward slopes of their tummies, and a hint of the top of their cheeks.
Thanks to this latest inane trend imposed on the fairer sex by the sadistic
fashion industry, pulchritudinous parts of the female form previously reserved
for the beach and the bedroom may now be glimpsed in shopping malls, restaurants,
airports and museums. Truly, we are living in a golden age!
