Suit



I bought and custom measured this $120 linen suit for Casey's wedding thinking that I would never wear it ever again. In some circles, a $120 suit is considered cheap looking. The pants are extra baggy and the coat is an inch or two long. It looks pretty goofy on me. I brought it out last weekend and was the only linen suit in a crowd of black. Nobody looked at me like I was a freak. I hereby rescind my negative comments about the suit. It's not too bad.

This is what Dwayne Wade said to ESPN when they told them about Marquette University changing their nickname:

"ESPN: Your alma mater, Marquette, changed their nickname to the Gold. . . . What do you think of that?

Wade: To the what?

ESPN: To the Gold. The Marquette Gold. That's what they're going with now.

Wade: Awh . . . I got to call. I got to call in on that one.

ESPN: We are breaking some news.

Wade: I heard they were trying to change it back to Warriors.

ESPN: No, I guess they are going with Gold. I'm surprised they didn't call you to check to see if it was OK with you.

Wade: The Gold?

ESPN: Yeah.

Wade: No, I got to make a phone call to Marquette after we get off this . . . (laughter). . . . I don't know about that one.

ESPN: So that might change . . .

Wade: Marquette Gold. The Gold!

ESPN: All right, Dwyane . . . So far so good. I know your word carries a lot of weight at Marquette as well as Miami. Congratulations, enjoy the rest of the playoffs.

Wade: Thank you, I will. The Gold?
