Tacky – now that’s a great topic. My wife always worked in the fashion industry, and probably served to often as arm candy for what she’d describe as a mentor. That’s an upscale old fart with lots of important business dinners, which are otherwise socially pathetic and unable to close much more than a business deal. This of course, before she was blessed by the presence of “The Great One”. She did seminars for women and could have probably written a book on how not to be “Tacky”. At first she was a little leery about taking me out in public, but slowly I was able to show her the light. She’s been much happier ever since. You may be right – I’ll have to start just leaving a note. The truth is I seem to get special attention almost wherever I’m at, just smile, be nice and be sure to tell them how good they look.
