This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Me too, sumi. What's the jockey situation looking like? Is there a Triple Crown if it's just the jockey and not the horses?

Art Crawl!!!

Um, not really but if Calvin Borel wins aboard Mine that Bird , I guess they'll call it that.

Doesn't matter - it wasn't the Triple Crown 'til Sir Barton won it anyway.

I love this blog for men's style, Nerd boyfriend: [link]

Reminds me of the book, Jocks and Nerds: [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The ads for the Belmont are talking about a "rare Jockey Triple Crown". Rare, one assumes, because the possibility of it happening never occurred to anyone.

That Nerd Boyfriend site is awesome. The internet has made finding costume inspiration so much easier!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm wondering why some of those men are considered nerds. Mick Jagger? Really? I mean, I loves me some nerdiness, but I do think that's stretching the definition a bit.

I don't know if they're considered nerds, but I think they're sporting elements of nerd style. Probably more hipster nerd style.

I do find myself wanting old school Adidas.

I would have thought that in 1961 or so, a man in a white shirt, no tie, and skinny trousers would have looked hip, even fashion forward, not nerdy.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I think they're all hip for their times -- icons, even -- but they're in styles that we would now consider nerdy. Except that it's more nerd-chic than actual nerd.
