I still have the same hairstyle as I did in seventh grade. I have never employed any sort of hair product. Khaki pants, in my opinion, are one of mankind’s greatest inventions: they can function in nearly every daily situation – dress up, dress down – they are comfortable and, most importantly, they pretty much match with everything. Coordinating clothes, I am told on a semi-regular basis by my wife, is not one of my strengths.

I am also far-removed from relating to what is hip among teenagers. Upside down sunglasses on the back of the head seems like the dumbest thing in the world to me. One step further, I have zero understanding for what the teenage girl thinks is cool in terms of evaluating a teenage boy (not that I would ever want to, mind you).
