DO you have a white or grey shirt? and then wear a colored tie?
That would work, but my only white shirt is kind of old and yellowed. I do need to get a new one.
You could do a red tie if it matches exactly.
Alas, the tie is a darker red than the shirt.
I'd wear this tie: [link]
You'd wear a lot of things.
When the kids and I were flying down to Anaheim on Christmas day, there was a grandpa, on the same flight, who was wearing a Christmas hat. That was a felt 3D Christmas tree. That lit up with flashing lights. And played Christmas music. AND DANCED ON HIS HEAD. We made sure to sit FAR away from him.
I'll have to make sure my mom never finds out about that hat.
Is the shirt bright red, or a darker wine red color? (Black tie should look good over almost anything, but otherwise it's tough to say.)
When my father was the pastor of a church, one year someone gave him a Christmas tie. So he put it on for the Christmas Eve service, and only learned when he leaned against the lectern during his sermon that the tie played music. When you pressed a thing in the bottom of the tie. Good times.
Is the shirt bright red, or a darker wine red color?
The shirt is more of a bright red. I am essentially wearing the Pete outfit.
Black tie should look good over almost anything
That's why they call it black-tie! ...Right?
NBC to Conan O'Brien -- The Choice Is Yours
NBC has given Conan O'Brien the option to either do his show from midnight to 1 or leave the network, sources tell TMZ.
As TMZ first reported, after the Olympics, Jay Leno will get his 11:30 PM time period back. We're told network execs have told Conan they will let him decide if he wants the midnight to 1:00 AM time slot. If he does, Leno's show will only be a half hour. If Conan walks, Leno will get a full hour, informed sources tell TMZ.
Our sources say Conan has not decided what he wants. We do know he's pissed, because he was given no advanced warning this was coming. Conan's people told NBC they are considering the offer. Translation: Mr. O'Brien -- I have Rupert Murdoch on line one, Stephen McPherson on line two, John Landgraf on line three, Jeff Wachtel on line four ...
Where are they going to get five hours of programming to fill in those 10 o'clock slots every night, I wonder?
I just saw a story that they had ordered a record number of pilots, but that doesn't help until the fall, right?
I have a couple blue ties, a greenish jungle-y tie, and ones with various colors on them.
Black might work. Gray would work. Solid white might be too flashy, but that's more forgivable in a party setting than a meeting setting.
