All right, I have a confession to make. I like frat-daddy clothing. Honestly, the boat shoes, the khaki shorts, the Polos - minus the popped-collar (read: misguided fad) - I love it all.

"Lucky me, loving you/ morning, noon and nighttime, too!"With Valentine's Day just past, I am certain several cards expressing sentiments like the one above were sent out yesterday.
