The assassination of the turtle shirt by the coward red wine.

So my new favorite Hawaiian shirt has turtles on it and the wife hates it. Stacy London hates it. She specifically dissed it when she saw me in it. But I love me some turtles.

First of all it is sage green which brings out my eyes. Then it has monkey shit brown turtles swimming all over it. It is a classic. How could you not love it.

Anyway I wore it Saturday and the wife had on one of her new convertible dresses that she loves. We decide to go out to dinner. Now she is always on me not to spill stuff on my shirts as I am your basic slob but this time she didn't say anything. We decided to do something different. Not radically different. Just a little different. First we went to Marco Polo for a couple of cocktails at the bar. But we didn't eat there. Instead we went to the Thai place for a light meal. We order a couple of glasses of wine. And then the wife spills hers. No I didn't spill mine. She spilled her. Didn't get any on her beautiful new dress. But I got a bunch on my poor turtle shit.

You don't need to be Inpsector Lestrade to figure that one out.

We put some stain remover on it and it looks sort of ok but I don't think I can wear it out when we are getting dressed up. It would be fine to hang around in or to go to the pool. I tried to order another one but they are sold out.

So I got a couple with alligators on surfboards and drunken parrots drinking Mai Tai's.

There is more than one way to skin a cat.

I just am gonna miss my turtles.
