Oh, thanks for the info. But now I'm even more sure he's mentally ill, because only a gay man or a crazy man would dress like that before going to rural Texas.
Don't you know the farmers and ranchers in Crawford were snickering openly at him! I mean, come on, who wears a black felt hat (if it even was beaver felt) in the summer to stand out in the sun. Then the round sunglasses and the black shirt only topped off his little ensemble. Oh, and nix the earbobs, too. I also was somewhat curious about what his choice in footwear was since he managed to get bitten by fireants. Do you think he wore sandals with that get-up?
Actually he looked like an effete snob trying to ingratiate himself with the locals and failing miserably. Typical DUmmie with a preconcieved idea of the way real people dress since he'd have fit in better if he'd worn a t-shirt, jeans and tennis shoes.
