Absolutely the worst fashion statement ever. Goes well with a comb over.
I was reminded of it about 5,438 times in Adelaide over the weekend. Sunday morning outside the Crowne Plaza there was a plethora of "old boys" diligently following their wives around with brightly coloured V Necks draped over horrendously checked shirts.

God it was nauseating.

Of all the absolutely shitty "classic" movie re-makes over the last 10 or more years, i'd really be thrilled if they did a re-make of Jaws. Such a great film/story, but it can be a little hard to watch these days due to the poor special effects of the time. There's just no going past how fake the shark looks. Would be awesome to see what some state of the art special effects could do to that story.

Kerry Packer and Lindsay Fox were fashion leaders for this look.

I forgot to mention that the Jaws re-make would see Will Ferrell cast as Chief Brodie.
I don't get what people see in Will Ferrell. I can see why its slightly funny, but I can't see why its outrageously funny.

Yeah, probably my most hated actor. Night at the Roxbury is the only decent thing hes done. Everything else is just a rehash of the same character.

Well, he had a run of films where he played a lead character with no significant flaws except for "sometimes so perfect it gets him into trouble", and you can only do that for so long until people think its the actor bignoting himself rather than getting into the character being portrayed.

Currently posting on bigfooty from Brunei. Would have to be a first.
I was in Brunei back in July. It's a great place to visit if you want a break from the mass tourism destinations in the region. I went AWOL on the tech while I was away though so your record stands!

If you haven't already been go to the water village.
