Summer apparel guide

I take a daily walk through the fine borough of Cambridge Springs, usually from the Dollar General area down to the Riverside Inn and back. I've noticed that summer-like weather in the area has brought along with it summer-like apparel on local residents.

Here are a few general observations about that clothing (or the lack thereof) that I can't help but share:

1. Tube tops are not an easy look to pull off. If there's any question in your mind about wearing one, take that as a sign that you shouldn't. Gravity is an ever-present force.

2. Gentlemen should wear shirts in public. There's a pretty good chance that people don't want to see that much of you, even though you think you're cool driving around in your Corvette showing off your six pack/keg of a stomach.

3. Tank tops are acceptable--except if you have a lot of hair on your upper arms. (This applies to both gentlemen and ladies.)

4. Wearing shorts while riding on a motorcycle is either an extremely bold move or an extremely dumb one.

In my humble opinion, these are tips that will make summer more enjoyable for you--and in many cases those around you.
