Turnabout is Fair Play


He may not care to admit it aloud but Dad is not 26 any longer Bunkie, and that pair of Chuck Taylor Converse high tops you had in mind for his Father’s Day gift may never find their way out of his closet. Camo cargo shorts are unlikely to be a hit either.

This Father’s Day, consider instead that turnabout is fair play. Take the opportunity to tastefully repay your old man for those holidays when there were pajamas or underwear under the tree instead of the latest version of Grand Theft Auto. Buy him a very conservative necktie. Throw in a couple pair of comfortable navy blue socks that fit his feet perfectly, and top the package off with a package of the world’s finest white linen handkerchiefs.

The ASW store will make sure your payback arrives in time.

Thirty years ago, I finally instructed my well-meaning relatives to never, ever, under any circumstances attempt to buy me clothing of any kind.

They would always get conned by department or specialty store employees who said "This is the latest fashion!"

I once was given a "dress" shirt with buttons as large as Dagwood's.
