The previous comment seems in line with the Dr. Cantor comb-over comment. I vote delete. Uniform? This isn’t a bloody army. Mr. David’s posture is just fine. Do you want us all goose stepping around?
Mr. David is quite tall. I doubt he rarely gets to interact at eye level. Out of necessity he probably often has to lean in to engage in social discourse. Obviously, Mr. Howland was trying to be humourous, I just don’t see it as an intelligent or civil joke.
I guess someone would have to know how awful my posture is on a chronic basis to fully realize the humor. Or my revulsion with military “schools” and school “uniforms” in general. Or even that the military of the United States refused me entry even during the Carter era of “gee, won’t someone please join? Please?”
Not civil? How about, “not civilian”?
It may also be the only time anything of mine has been referred to as “charming”. Charring, maybe…
“Bill,

I vote to keep it because it is funny in a charming sort of way.
