One thing I noticed while watching the Super Bowl’s postgame festivities last night: All football players, when addressing the news media, wear baseball caps.
I would like to propose, in the interests of symmetry and basic fairness, that from now on, all baseball players wear football helmets to their news conferences.
And basketball players should wear bike helmets, and hockey players, wrestlers’ singlets.
In fact, EVERYONE should have to wear singlets, at all times … post-office clerks, night copy-desk editors … to guard against taking ourselves too seriously. Man, that would add a touch of whimsy to the ol’ management team, eh?
And, can you imagine soldiers wearing singlets? I rest my case.

I thought your idea of singlets was great. You might even set a trend for worship service outfits. Who knows, if woman started wearing them, you might get more men at churches and synagogues. I picked out one for you. I thought that Blue and Gold suited you nicely. I tried to insert the photo, but your blog doesn’t like photos. Photos would make a nice addition to your future posts. By the way, if any of your friends want hockey helmets for their next basketball game, I have plenty in my garage. Will sell them cheep. Keep the good ideas coming. Still waiting for your next book.
