Purple Shirt of the Week: Older and Wiser



Here we have a lavender (ie light purple - sorry, it's my phone camera, the color isn't too accurate) shirt on someone who wished not to have their face shown on the blog this week. I only mention this for two reasons: first, this person's picture is already plastered around the internets, and secondly, he's making such an awesome face in the picture that it's a crime that it's not being shared.

I suspect that this not sharing has something to do with the fact that yes, even though he may be a recognized maven of information and has photo profiles on websites, twitter, etc, he draws some kind of line between "i'm a professional" and "i don't need to have goofy pictures of myself on the internet".

I know, i know, i don't understand it either. I for one hope i never make that distinction. but, then again, look at what i do with my life; and not having that brain filter probably means i won't have a reputation where goofy photos will matter or come back to haunt me in a negative way. i don't have much further to fall.

Anyway, we salute you, man in the pretty purple shirt! You go and rock that lavender!

Purple Shirt of the Week: This is a happy blog, darn it!

I really didn't feel like doing a blog today, but then realized that
the fortunes of you, dear readers, are completely tied to my public
musings here week after week. And today a lot of us probably need
some sunshine and flowers.

I know i do. I just took a walk outside, so there's my sunshine.

Here's my flowers for you. The original pic i took was one of the
ones lost on my iphone the other week, and the original point was that
i hadn't mowed yet and i was amazed that EVEN THE WEEDS GROWING INTO
MY FRONT GARDEN AND GRASS WERE PURPLE!


It was a sign. trust me, it was there.

Purple Shirt of the Week: The end of sleeve season

Sorry there was no post last week - I had taken some AWESOME purple
pics on my new iPhone but then had problems and the guys at the apple
store had to wipe the phone. After that I just isn't feel like
blogging because these were that good.

I still haven't got my photos syncing to my laptop, so you'll have to
wait until next week for my photoshopped pic of tim's lavender shirt.

So in the meantime, enjoy one of the last sleeved ensembles you'll be
seeing here for the season
