Remember Red Skelton’s version? Guy goes into a store for a suit. The salesman pushes him to buy a beautiful suit, but one sleeve is too long. “Just pull it up here and hold it with your chin.” Then one leg of the pants was too long. “Just hitch up this side and hold it with your elbow.” The price was right, so he bought it a wore it out of the store. Walking down the sidewalk, he passed two women who shook there heads. “Poor man, all crippled up!” “Yes, but don’t his suit fit nice?”

Rufus may try, but he will never be able to come close to the rural sophistication displayed by Joel. Joel is the epitome of quality rural style.

If he did hike it up enough, he’d be going for the Brian Ferry look. Of course Brian Ferry could pull it off…..
