Behold the sweater vest! Feel its power!

For reasons that should be apparent, I don't post all that many pictures of myself on my blog, but I'm putting up this one because it's germane to something that happened to me around 2 in the afternoon today. This is what I was wearing at the time.

Anyway, I was walking from my apartment back to my office, and I'm stopped by the fountain at Five Points South, waiting for the light to change so I can cross Magnolia Avenue. I'm standing there as cars go by, and this silver XTerra comes up with its windows down. And as it goes by, the driver, a guy I've never met before in my life, leans out the window and says, "Could you look any more like Chandler?"

A lot of people might've been embarrassed or taken offense at that. Me, I laughed all the way back to the office. Actually, I'm laughing now just thinking about it.

  1. I don't know what the appropriate comment for a post like this. But I knew I wanted to comment.

    What a paradox.

    Um. Congratulations. I think.

  2. Look, if that guy gives you any more guff about your sweater vest, he'll have to answer to me, Tressel.

    That's *Coach* Jim Tressel.

    Sincerely,
    *Coach* Jim Tressel.

  3. As someone who knows you as just you, I've never thought of you that way, but yeah, I can see Chandler in that photo.

    Now you just have to convince Jennifer Anniston.
