I was a music major for a bit, I had to have a standard dinner coat tux, a white tux with tails, and a black coat with tails. Plus a shirt or four. And the ties. And the cummerbund And the vests. And shiny shoes. Too bad I wasn’t part of the boycott, they’d have lost out on a lot of money.

A bit interested in something specific you wrote – did your university fight song have the word “muss” in it?

I’m not all for suing either. I think people are sue happy. That being said, there are circumstances when I think its fair. IE: Wrongful termination., wrongful death, malpractice.
Then again, it probably wouldn’t have been worth it. Then again…once you’re not fixing everyone’s mistakes, the owner will come down on him.

I did get my revenge, actually. I was studying music in university, and all the men were required to own tuxedoes for concerts. I told everyone (truthfully) that when they bought a used tux from that store, they were getting the garments that were considered too worn out to be rented out any more, and had been rented out at least 50 times. They lost quite a bit of business from all my friends at university.
