We love the whippoorwills. We get them every year here as they migrate through and they are quite allusive. I have only seen them 2 or 3 times in about 10 years, but you can hear them. And they are very loud, spooky too.

Ah, the Germans! Those perennial tellers of fairy's grimm and distasteful, witches fat with toddler flesh and men falling into ditches to be eaten by ravenous ravens...what's not to like? The bonus is that it is all for childhood consumption. Mmmmmmmmmmmm....terrifying! YAY!

So I don't come across as a total dick - I do like the suit and the shirt/tie combo is outstanding. I just don't think the shoe thing .... n/m.

I think you look good, Ibram. Although I'd never wear those sneakers with a suit, I'm guessing that's the point. I don't think Ibby is trying to impress the 40 somethings.

Ibs, David Tennant is sex on legs. Baseball boots with a suit is equally scrummy. You go bad lad.
