O r, Bingo Little gets lost in a drift? Snowing again in our neck of the woods, but instead of ski gear, it was time to don something a bit more professional for classes this morning. More of the usual suspects with the addition of a recent Christmas gift beneath the tweed jacket. For traversing to and from the car and classroom building where I am scheduled this semester, additional items included a well-worn Borsalino fedora, a camel polo coat with blue and white schoolboy muffler, gloves, and orange overshoes by SWIMS. Perhaps a bit whimsical and even silly by the sartorial standards of 2026, yes. But why not have a little fun with one's attire? It certainly adds a spring to one's step when forced to leave the ski trails of Northern Michigan behind for another couple of weeks and return to real life during the Sunday afternoon drive south. -- Heinz-Ulrich
