@joedirt....I am living in Europe for two years....guys all wear scarves....big poofy ones sometimes....it is not very masculine....they also all ride bicycles.....not like a cool looking mountain bike, but fruity looking old fashioned bicycles, with like a basket, lights and fenders.....I am not sure how chicks can tell who is straight or not
Worse than this, they also wear these scarf like things that loop around your neck...they can figure eight them so they wrap around twice when it is cold....some of them are awfully pretty....I am afraid this is what James is wearing....makes me wonder how he really tore his acl.... Hmmm....

In case James Stewart is reading this: Sorry for making fun of you dude, but listen up.....
If your neck is cold, go to a store that sells mountain climbing gear....ask them for a "Biff".....it is a bandana looking deal that goes around your neck..they also have ones that can go on your head and tie in the back, in case you want to cover that hair doo that my wife keeps making fun of.......don't worry, it looks cool, and you won't have to worry about people thinking you're a flamer anymore.
Oh, James.... at least you did have the sense to get a black one of those things....but c'mon dude....you don't live in France.......and......I think you may want the women to know that you do like girls...
