    Dang! Such a comfie way to sit through lectures too.

    And so rude to the memory of the Irish Brigade that switched sides in the Mexican War to fight for Mexico.

    Know this is a Los Estados Unidos situation but read Jerry Griffin's adventures years ago http://www.utilikilts.com/news/archi...4-11/index.htm

    And what is SOOOO ironic is how the Mexican "formal" shirt the guayabera has struggled to be accepted in the U.S. business world instead of a suit. And when its a problem the Hispanic folks complain we just don't understand their culture....and they're right.

    Hopefully Jay Fernandez example of cultural insensitivity towards guayaberas will help if you decide to appeal - if there is any such process.

    You can still kilt up on your free time. Who knows, maybe common sense will spread.

    Hang in.
