#2 for a group of guys who consider themselves superior to women, they sure spend a lot of time dressin' like 'em.

#15 Fred, is it time for page 5: The Style Page? We could write little articles about the best artificial tan product to blend where the beard covered moments ago, and "Hiding amongst your womenfolk: blend in black, or stand out in blue"

It could be a great resource for those aspiring to the Number 3 spot, and our foreign correspondents (Broadhead6, are you listening?) could contribute to a round robin column "Tested in the field: what absolutely, positively won't fool those damned Western Infidel invaders."

What do you think? ;-)
