Tom theorized it could be low budget terrorism- a way to disrupt without actual explosives and, um, death.

I forgot about that hack, Frank. But by and large, I don't think they'd be on this level.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Come on, people, more talking. I'm waiting on a training course that's loading about one percent every five seconds.

I do have questions about socks, if someone wants to talk clothes.

No alerts on the MBTA site for the North Station commuter trains, so x-fingers.

I can possibly answer any sock related questions you may have.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dana, you need two.

Unless you are a) a guy and 2) play for the RHCP. Then you need 3 sometimes. And sometimes just the one.

Wool ones are itchy.

Okay, so socks.

First of all, I have a pair of Mary Janes. First ones I've ever owned. If I am wearing them with either pants or jeans, what kinds/colors of socks am I allowed to wear under them?

Second, are there general rules for what color socks you can wear and how they have to match your outfit? Is it sort of a general complementary color rule? For years I got by with black socks and black shoes, but since I'm branching out into other colors, I suddenly feel a sock-related-knowledge deficiency.

I realize most of you have probably been dressing yourselves like adults for several years, but I somehow missed the course on socks.

Any color, so long as it doesn't clash with your shirt. I like stripes. Argyle can be cute, too. Oh, and those cute little lace trimed white things!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dana, this is exactly why I spend ten years only wearing black shoes. But I do think it's a general complementary color rule. Also, for Mary Janes, you should wear white socks with a frill.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

This may just be a personal preferance, but I like colored socks with Mary Janes. Cuts down on the cute-little-girl factor. As far as which color, I say as long as it's not too matchy matchy or clashy clasy, any color is fine.
