..and no, I wasn't naked in the bathroom with another guy.
Chopper is a great australian hero....
Underground vigilant who cut his ears of in prison.
FAMOUS in Australia, he has his own movie called lets guess.... 'CHOPPER' Its a great movie... everyone go see it.

I dug up a 2002 photo (sorry for the poor quality) that I hope will give some of the Political Lounge regulars a chuckle...
At the time, one of these guys was a Senator from NJ that some referred to as "The Torch". The other dude is me. We had a friendly debate over dinner.
2 months later, the Torch was out of a job.

Still? I didn't know that you initially thought I was a tit.
Why don't you go lock yourself in a room and make some icons or something. I want a 3-D John Kerry in my dock.

Is there a good story behind why they called the senator "The Torch"?

They call Toricelli "The Torch" because he's a Democratic Party hitman. Speculation is that Clinton had Toricelli funnel money into anti-Dean efforts before Iowa. Hence, Dean was "Torched".
Here are some links...more can be found by Googling "Toricelli Dean" if you're interested in further readings on the matter.
http://discover.npr.org/features/fea...l?wfId=1677170
A Democratic political action group called "Americans for Jobs" is credited with hurting Howard Dean's bid to win the Iowa caucuses. Documents released this week show former Sen. Robert Torricelli of New Jersey was a big contributor to the group. He's also a key fundraiser for Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts.
http://www.bushbacklash.com/NewFiles...ivonka_01.html
At the low point of his campaign, of Thursday, December 4, 2003, John Kerry was desperate to reverse his decline in the polls. In an effort find a strategy that would accomplish that he held a series of meetings with advisers and political allies in the Democratic power structure.
Pitt's article includes a good description of the meeting, with a list of the influentials who attended, but mostly it is an "apologetic" on behalf of Senator Kerry - the sweetness and light side of the Kerry counter attack that is complemented by his use of discredited and removed former Senator Robert Toricelli's secret ads attacking Governor Dean in Iowa a few weeks later.

When Kerry wins (see: landslide) in November, I will make Kerry icons. And, of course, loser Bush icons.

Adidas.
They are my MTB glasses. You can change the lenses in 20 seconds - behind them are small correction glasses so I can see where I�m going.
The whole thing is very light and durable.
To use a normal frame with coloured correction glasses costs an arm and a leg.

I think Oakley also has a selection of correction glasses if I am not mistaken...

Somebody with low self esteem will probably kill himself after an in depth discussion of his/her faults - everybody else will be amused.

If you're gonna kill yourself because somebody pokes fun at your fashion sense, then you have a whole host of problems WAY beyond the scope of this message board.

I don't see what the big deal is. I do this all the time, but then I'm 35 and more concerned with comfort in the summer heat than meeting with the approval of those with a bent towards fashion. So there. Take that to the (fashion) bank.

I agree with Lando here, its hot, I'm not going to wear pants just so I can wear my sandals. I mean, is nudity the only way to go here..?..for fashion's sake of course...
How about a tank top with sweatpants and sandals ala Carl from Aqua Teen?

k.
board shorts, cargos, shorts slightly above the knee.. all fine with CERTAIN sandals..
beachy, loungy REEF type sandals I mean. no wraparound all-weather cross country type shyte. UNLESS you happen to be sitting at the base of a mountain about to climb.
shorts covering the knees are kinda uncool. not because it's not trendy, but because it's useless. wear pants, wear shorts. done.
with that said, ALL bets are off if the shirt you're wearing with the above combination is TUCKED in. lay a moistened towel across your forehead and lay down for a while.
combine that with some crazy Mens 400 meter relay style glasses, and.. whoa.
my opinion, of course.

I'm fairly certain DeathToWindows is the offspring of Matt Damon and Hugo Weaving. Almost 100% certain.

What would you wear sandals with, if not shorts? Trousers?
One thing people fail to realise is that "fashion" varies greatly from country to country, and even town to town; even beyond that, it varies amongst different people. You've got the prissy bitches, then you've got the pop-punk girls, etc...

Kids in the US have no fashion sense today, it's sickening. The little horrors run around in shitty cheap clothes wearing shitty cheap shoes and shitty cheap sunglasses. Americans should be watching Queer eye for the straight guy in the goddamn cradle.
