Yes I do wear too many "jeans and t-shirt" combos and yes Timberland does dominate my t-shirt collection. What can I say, I get them for free. I know myself well enough to know that as long as I have clothes to wear it will be a slow process to replace my wardrobe and more importantly I'm a jean's and t-shirt type of guy.
And for those of you who are against the fanny pack. Drop some advice instead of criticisms. With a kid or backpack on my back the need to securely carry and have quick access to my wallet, digital, camera and cell phone the much maligned fanny pack was the best solution I could come up with. Can anyone do any better.

Where did the controversial comment go!? Whatever will we talk about now????
Last week The Kid had to draw a "Stain" for one of her sound cards. She made a picture of her dad with a big spot on his shirt then handed it to me and said, "Now write the word Timberland across the front." True story.
The true story sums everything up perfectly. There's nothing wrong with being a jeans and T-shirt guy but you still might need to update from time to time (no logos).
As for other options other than the fanny pack - we are all wondering why your wallet isn't in your pocket and can't the cell phone and camera go in the backpack?
We eagerly await your response.

hey now. Remember I'm the one who said I LIKED the Timberland T-shirts! Don't give into the pressure Tony C. Be your own person, wear the Timberland logo with pride! And the Christmas T-shirt you wore last year was awesome. My vote is to keep Tony C, Tony C, logos and all..........

oops - regarding the web site - I just thought the discussion was funny - didn't realize it was a conservitive web site.
Tony C is usually up until 1am obsessing over dry wall, so I'm taking the liberty of speaking to the wondering group and hopefully Tony C will speak more on this later. Pockets are usually maxed-out with dirty and clean tissues as well as rocks/treasures. No room for the wallet. The backpack (aka diaper bag) is loaded diapers, wipes, extra clothes for Z, snacks and water for all, etc., etc. Swinging it on and off is a chore unto itself. Retrieving small items from secure compartments is inconvenient with two monkeys on the loose. When both of us are together one wears the backpack, the other wears Z. Though I hate the idea of adding one more item to my body I sometimes don a wristlet purse for convenience. But I don't think Tony C is willing to go this far. Yet.
I have been laughed at for YEARS for wearing a belt pouch (yes, that's what I call a fanny pack) when I travel. I DO NOT CARE what other people think as I always have purell, gum, money/ID, tissues, cell phone and a pen RIGHT THERE. No digging, searching, panicking ("Where is my wallet?? The boarding passes??"). You know what the wise people say. F*** 'em if they can't take a joke.
I have been giving the fanny pack some thought. I am a little pissed off that somewhere along the line, it became "uncool". It is by far the most convenient piece of body luggage ever created. I spent many vacations, with my camera, money etc right there, safe and convenient. When did I give in to the pressure and go to the over the shoulder bag that just flies around and gets in the way?
I say, we bring back the fanny pack and make it cool again! Can it be done?

I wonder what Jon Pack would think of men who wear fanny packs?
Jon Pack has been known to flip-flop.

So, Jon Pack has spoken. He approves of men who wear fanny packs because they are convenient, but dissaproves if worn for no appearant reason.
I think you're in the clear Tony-C!
However, Jon Pack dissaproves of me, so why are we basing anything on this lunatic?

I think someone is taking this family fun too seriously no one is berating Tony C.
And please post another blog so we can get off this topic. How about a cute Z or D story.
