 It was thrilling and creepy and now I am very intrigued.
 
 My father had amazing results with acupuncture, but I am a neophyte.  Anyone use it acupuncture or other alternative therapies?
 
 Fun fact: a man of 40 should have sex once every two weeks, a woman of 40 . . . once every three.

 |  You're intrigued?  Well, lucky you.  I am also a doctor of chinese medicine, and I can perform an even more detailed analysis for you, using only your tongue and mouth.   It will cost you $500, though.  Cash only please.

				Fashion for the Apocalypse
			 
 From Refinery 29: "Fashion for the apocalypse: (how to look situation appropriate, but still hot, for the end of days) ."
   
In case of apocalypse (or the far more likely zombie-pocalypse), I am going with an ensemble from REI -- wicking fabrics, zip openings, and comfort.  If I am going to be living off the land and killing zombies, I want to be dry and comfortable.

Let's just say I went to law school and have passed a bar.....lol!!!
 
But to set meself apart, my corner office has a bidet and a murphy bed. 4tcb, iykwimaiktyd. 
 
Also, while I am of a certain age, I have the sex once every two hours, instead of once every two weeks. Cuts down on my billing except when its clients or office staff   
Finally, when I had the temporary custody of my young nieces last Saturday, we called into RadioDisney and I pretended to be their parent (father, fwiw) and I won the "cool parent" contest.
 
Raises the bar a bit, no?

Raises the bar a bit, no? |  [OUTABLE] Ps: And I have an unkempt (except for the braids-see my avatar pic for an example) pirate style beard. Adds credence when I go to the bars in Ballard to pick up young wenches and/or sea maidens claiming to be a mercenary pirate fisherman just off the Deadliest Catch boat. Apparently they dig pirate beards.[/OUTABLE]

I know Lanvin and Commonwealth Utilities each make versions (with the latter named for the aforementioned Mr. G).  Anyone seen them out there at retail? Serious replies appreciated.
 
I am thinking that it would be a good look with one of my more piratey waistcoats and fancy britches. Or formal functions. Or both.
