The Blushing Hostess said...: Not one of the Sperry deck sneaks in the lot. It is a dock, what are those work-a-day girls shoes doing there? Look: Rubber. White sole. Navy trim. That is Newport, not Pier 69, k?; 10 July, 2009 10:04

ADG said...: Tincan....very funny post. Glad the revelation that this was a work function related endeavor. Otherwise, I'd begin another round of shit about the Tri-Color Tortelinis!

Hope y'all are having fun.; 10 July, 2009 12:39

Someone fetch me a Sapphire G&T with bitters and half a lime, stat!

Worst offender is at the top left: croc-grain driving mocs.; 10 July, 2009 16:53
heavy tweed jacket said...: My first reaction was - in the middle of July - why, oh why, is there so much black on this pier? Tintin, those deck shoes look positively cool on the weathered wood, near the water. Looks like an enjoyable time in Newport.; 10 July, 2009 18:04
Tin-tin's phred/dad said...: What's with that plate of leftover oysters? Looks like a yankee tourist's plate in the famed underground (in a condemned building), basement oyster bar in Daytona that our (your mother's) St. Augustine crowd used to go to. Had some good times there. (Floors ankle deep in peanut shells, etc.) All gay countermen shucking hundreds of steamed oysters while goosing each other and telling dirty jokes. I even enjoyed the 40 mile drive home -- avoiding the cop's radar traps.; 12 July, 2009 20:28
