The dress code here is looser than at my previous job -- guys are often in polo shirts. No T-shirts without collars, no jeans or cords, no running shoes, no sweats, no shorts, no sandals without back strap, always wear hose/socks/tights/whatever, always sleeves. I think guys are also supposed to tuck in their shirts, but that's not observed.
I like it. I dress a little bit more conservatively than the rules allow, primarily to mitigate boobie staring.
Our dress code is business casual, which means we can even get away with t-shirts (as long as they aren't blatantly undershirts or offensive) and jeans. I have a whole drawerful of ties I haven't used in over a decade (what with having been here 11+ years). I tend to still go with the collared shirts, but sometimes I will allow myself to dress down on a Friday.
God gave Terri Schiavo irreparable brain-damage so that Tom DeLay could stay on as the leader of the House. [link]
Mr. DeLay, a Texas Republican, turned his attention to social conservatives gathered at a Washington hotel and described what he viewed as the intertwined struggle to save Ms. Schiavo, expand the conservative movement and defend himself against accusations of ethical lapses.
"One thing that God has brought to us is Terri Schiavo, to help elevate the visibility of what is going on in America," Mr. DeLay told a conference organized by the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian group. A recording of the event was provided by the advocacy organization Americans United for Separation of Church and State.

Huh. No wonder I scored as a Satanist on that religion quiz.
Our office is officially business casual, but in practice, it's casual-casual unless the bigwigs from London are in town or I'm covering reception.
In other office news, we were just told that this Thursday will be the last massage day until the renovations are done, sometime in June or July. This is most unpleasant news.
Oh, and anyone looking for an NYC-based internship? Must have people skills.
Massage day?
We have two masseueses who come in once a month to give free 20-minute massages in the conference room. It's the best perk ever.

Damn. That may even be better than the weekly 90-minute yoga class at the Big Theater. Nope, the massage is better. Want the massage.....

DAMN. That IS a great perk.
Hrmm. We get free Krispy Kremes once a month. I might actually prefer the donuts, since I'd rarely go into a KK myself, and I consider 60 minutes not long enough for a massage.
I'm a big old backrub ho.
