I haven't shaved or showered in three days- off to lowes I go!

[Wcross]

I have been working on a project this weekend and wanted to get it done before the rain comes this afternoon. I wake up this morning at 6 and the water is off! I go out to the well house and see that the switch is melted! It looks like the two positive wires got loose somehow and destroyed the switch. Now I have to go out in public with a three days growth of facial hair and smelling like who knows what. Should I wear my overalls to complete the look or should I wear my PJ's??????

1. Wear both!

Then you really will look the part.

2. I'd go with jeans suitably arranged

to display plenty of "plumber's cleavage".

3. i live in ky,

you would be the norm here.about 90% of these bush loving, right wing nut jobs go days without showering or deodorant

4. Seriously, the following is *not* a slam to the French:

I can appreciate your not wishing to reprazent our noble cause in a less-than-squeaky-clean look.

I've noticed that, in Paris, one can get around anywhere and be treated with respect as long as a jacket and trousers or a suit is worn.

Doesn't seem to matter if the suit is rumpled, the hair is a bit unruly, perhaps the whole get-up is a bit..musty.
Just wear the suit.
Once we clocked that, we would dress accordingly (ditching the slobby American tourist togs) and thus upgrade our respect level.

SO: if you can't shower wear "decent" clothes, brush your hair, and go for it.

Good luck and thanks for going!

5. Wow, that is excellent advice.

I will have to write that down in my little book of travel notes.

6. Carry a big brown paper bag around your bottle--

that will complete the look! (Sorry.....couldn't resist)
