Spring is Over

Well our one day of Spring in Chicago is now over and it is officially Summer. Boy is it fucking hot. In fact, to quote Matthew Broderick's character Eugene Morris Jerome in Neil Simon's Biloxi Blues, "It's Africa Hot!" I swear it was in the thirties last week and bam you get this smack in the face of the mid-nineties this week! Now if it was 95 and I was sitting my ass by a pool with a cocktail it would all be well and good. But no, I am in long pants and a dress shirt waiting for the train in the searing heat. I'd do anything to wear a skirt with no stockings. While I realize that women get the short end of the stick on many things, getting to wear a skirt on a hot day has to be one bonus. Does anyone know of a dress kilt that is acceptable to wear in a business casual environment.

Look at these guys, they are kilting it, and are even wearing collared shirts, seems business casual to me.

Here is an Irish version. Again wearing a collared shirt, I am sure it would be acceptable.

So that's were "Africa Hot" orginiated! Oh, and guys in skirts of any sort - not so manly.

Kevin, BSB, wore a skirt once. No good for anyone that saw it!

Fuck it, just wear one of your wife's skirts. You have nothing to prove, you're married with two beautiful kids. Hell, and make sure you buy a nice pair of sling-backs - makes your calves look sexy.

FYI!

When trains are arriving, if a woman is wearing a shorter or flowing skirt, it will fly right up!
