Hello all, hope you are enjoying,
your Summer,
staying cool, looking fly,
I have started thinking of 2016,
as the Summer of shorts,
not to preach,
I wouldn't do that,
but,
if you live in a hot muggy climate,
liberate your knees,
wear some shorts.
Here one of my favourite menswear websites,
Valet.com makes the case,
http://www.valetmag.com/style/products/2016/making-the-case-for-wearing-shorts-072116.php
Can't get the link to work but, if you go to Valet.com,
you can find the article.
personally I think they could have added,
the Flex Shorts from American Eagle Outfitters,
all of my shorts, except one pair, are the flex shorts,
and no,
no one is paying me for this,
I offer it up to my fellow butches,
and some dapper guys as an awesome,
option.
It's also been,
the Summer of getting out,
and seeing some live music,
enjoying part of,
all that,
the beautiful ugly has to offer.
Summer in Montreal,
festival time,
Baby:-)
Jazz Festival,
Just For Laughs,
Nuits D'afrique,
Francopholie,
Highland Games,
Under Pressure,
and so much more.
For every body,
for every demographic,
for every proclivity,
for young and old,
for hip, for square.
I loved my visit to the,
Jazz Fest,
this year,
went to see,
Betty Bonifassi,
I enjoy her music,
with a newish friend,
who's company I much enjoy,
and,
then there was a free show,
by a local funk band,
The Brooks,
they did an homage to,
Prince,
it was the bomb,
I danced and danced,
it felt like I was,
hanging with my tribe.
I knew all the words,
lots of people my age,
it was a night to remember.
This weekend,
it was Nuits D'afrique,
some free Reggae and African beats,
hung out with my best pal,
and, my girl,
it kept raining,
and,
I wasn't nearly as keen on the rain,
or the music as my girl was,
but, the food was good,
and,
I enjoyed Lorrraine Klassen,
but, mostly,
my girl was so happy,
it made me happy,
sore feet,
are really not the end of the world.
This coming weekend,
Absolutely Fabulous,
with another,
newish friend,
and on Sunday,
The Highland Games with mom,
and,
maybe Renaud and Helene,
lots to look forward to,
and,
if I was a betting butch,
I would say there will be
shorts,
involved
Have a fun, you all,
chill,
leave the deep thoughts aside,
frolic and rest,
plenty of time for deep thoughts,
in the ...Fall
Later girls,
BB
