I don't see where the post deserves a "masculinity" tag.; २४/१/०९, ९:३० PM
blake म्हणाले...: It's nice that he can wear that without being ostracized.

Or, wait, is it representative of our declining values?; २४/१/०९, ९:३९ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: Is he wearing a headband? It looks like he's wearing a headband. Ill advised.; २४/१/०९, १०:२१ PM

Palladian म्हणाले...: A man of character and quality does not attend parties where drinks are served in red plastic cups or in aluminum cans wrapped in neoprene cozies.; २४/१/०९, १०:४४ PM

vbspurs म्हणाले...: I found my Preppy Handbook by Lisa Birnbach, where it shows this photograph with accompanying description of each of the lads pictured!

L to R:

"Gonzalo" -- Rich Argentine with two estancias, he was kicked out of St. Paul's after dunking the Headmaster, McGeorge Stroud II, into the school fountain. A fixture at Finnerty's in Midtown, he give free handjobs to visiting Yalies.

"Jock" -- Whispered to be related to a famous Senator from Massachussetts, Jock was sent to Stowe in England. A 2nd year man at Columbia, his penetrating stare became the talk on campus after Ahmenidajad thought he was flirting with him. Likes whiskey sours and Elvis.

"Hubertus" -- An Austrian baron, his family are battling the Czech government to compensate them for their dilapidated castles. He bartends in Breckenridge during the season and has Diane von Fürstenberg on speedial.

"Lance" -- James Franciscus' younger son, he had a minor role in "Freddy Got Fingered" after graduation from Wilshire Private School. Is known for his eponymous dance move, "The Lance", where he shakes his penis like a bedsheet.

"Tower" -- Also known as Trip, this scion of the Vanderbilt family was laid off when Bear Stearns went belly up. Recently sued a friend who had made a documentary on the children of the well-heeled, showing him snorting coke off of the crotch of Lizzy Grubman.

...ah, prep parties.

David म्हणाले...: The Elvis belt guy is an alien.

He has no bellybutton.; २४/१/०९, ११:२४ PM
Fred4Pres म्हणाले...: That is so disturbing on so many levels.

But in defense of Carlo Rossi, I do not recall him making a wine of that particular shade (do they do white zinfandel in jugs)?; २५/१/०९, १:३३ AM
ricpic म्हणाले...: More and more Americans look like Euro-trash.

Outward appearance reflecting the inner collapse.; २५/१/०९, ४:१३ AM
Donna B. म्हणाले...: What decade was that taken in?; २५/१/०९, ४:२७ AM
traditionalguy म्हणाले...: Friends for life. Someone once said,"the best days of your life are college days" implying it was all downhill afterward since you faced that dreaded four letter word "work",closely followed by marriage, raising kids, seeing to pay their education bills, etc. The beauty of the excitement and fun shared among college age friends (including Elvis dork types)is a special moment in time. Our Professor has a great job since she still can share in that world. That must also be why I enjoy college football more than the NFL.; २५/१/०९, ७:३७ AM
