At which event no one will ask the question that’s on everyone’s mind.
Going to the Al Gore lecture “The Leader as Environment Steward” at SMX Convention Center tomorrow afternoon, then to the gala dinner. Have to write up the event, so I will be scribbling throughout.
The invitation says “Attire: Corporate”. Every time I see that corporate attire is required I have the urge to wear a ratty t-shirt with an A in a circle. However, out of respect for Mr. Gore, who has won the Oscar, the Nobel Peace Prize, and technically, the presidency of the United States (but was thwarted by the hanging chads of Florida), I shall wear a necktie.
This one! Beaded men’s necktie by James Reyes.
I didn’t say with what.

I’ve been posting links to your blog and links that I find in your blog in my FB account, especially those that I find informative and amusing. I hope you don’t mind.

Lucky woman. Wish I could go. Weeks ago I couldn’t afford the tickets. Yesterday I went to buy the cheapest and it was all sold out. I had my recycled zesto ball gown ready pa naman. How sad is that?

Just wondering, would the A in your ratty t-shirt happen to look something like this?

The price of that ticket is really 15,840 PhP?!

same reaction here, Turmukoy. Php 15, 840.00?!! Are the proceeds going to a environmental cause?

15,840? Perhaps the money will be burned as an alternative fuel source?
