...and what is "African-America attire", anyway? Jeans held up by a belt under your ass? A lycra mini-skirt and tube-top? $200 Nikes? A fedora with a purple feather in the hatband? Corn-row hair braids?

African-American attire? Seriously?

It should be noted that the garb commonly thought of as "African" by the black nationalist types in America is actually of Arab origin and was introduced to sub-Saharan Africa by Arab slavers (the inventors of the African Slave Trade). So put that in your crack pipe and smoke it.

I know!  Woe! 

No problem, IDP; I'll move it.  I'd've just done it without further comment but I .... I felt the need .... to rattle your cage a little.  Heheheh.

I think it's safe to assume that they won't be seeing the IZOD aligator during the festivities . Does Curious George have a clothing line ?
