- You have admitted to wearing leather trousers on the radio
Yes, that was me on XFM this morning. Tim heard. Did you?
Have recorded it, will put the mp3 up when I get a chance to convert it.

Dear Mr Sevitz,
We would like to inform you that the recipient of the mental postcard you have just sent has refused to pay the delivery charge and has returned it with the following message. “You’d have to pay me to accept that and frankly, there isn’t enough money in the world.”
Regards,
The CPS.
2. Chris
It’s at times like this I wish I lived in London.
3. Tim
I also can’t believe that I have admitted to owning cowboy boots…
Adrian, are you going to borrow Christian’s boots? You definitely should.
You also need a script for when you talk to Christian on monday.
4. Adrian
Nah, I wont get a chance to pick them up.
We all know cowboy boots are sexy no matter what Jose thinks. I’ll go with my 14 hole docs maybe.
What size are your boots? What colour?
5. Jose
cowboy boots = wrong. Thats all I have to say on the matter. Tim, I thought better of you.
6. Tim
Sorry to disappoint you Jose, but on the subject of Cowboy boots I am prepared to fly in the face of popular opinion. Deep in my heart, I think I know that they are wrong, but somehow I just don’t care…
Useless for climbing trees in though - on that front I have to concede that maybe a pair of trainers is better.
However, imagine for a moment if you will, you have Clint Eastwood in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly standing in front of you. A battered hat, a cigarillo clamped between teeth set into a square jaw, three day stubble and a distant gaze. You scan down past a pair of Colt’s finest slung over worn jeans to find…
…a pair of Nike Air Jordans. Maybe a nice pair of loafers? Deck Shoes? Flip-flops? Even Clint would look like a right pratt. Now I’m not suggesting that cowboy boots are the right sort of waffle-stompers for the office, or a smart London bar, but there is a time and a place for everything!
7. Jose
Aw Tim, is that what you see when you’re wearing them and you look in the mirror- Clint Eastwood? …Bless.
Ok, unless you actually ARE Clint Eastwood, theyre wrong.
8. Tim
I was waiting for that…
I’m going to be Clint Eastwood when I grow up.
Or maybe Paul Newman. Haven’t decided yet. Maybe if I develop multiple personality disorder I can be both?
9. Karen
Cowboy boots might be wrong, but leather trousers are so, so right.
10. Tim
I suspect that comment might also be quite controversial…
My leather trousers are so, so tight
11. Jose
I don’t disagree with leather trousers per se, in fact, on the right person they look fantastic. I might however, have teeny tiny issue with the fact they’re not as washable as clothes really should be.
12. Adrian
Dry cleaners clean leather trousers quite happily. also leather doesn’t get as mucky as normal clothes. You don’t wash your leather shoes do you?
Explain what you mean by the right person, without mentioning Lenny Krawitz…
13. Tim
They wipe clean though, and that counts for a lot…
14. Dragon
Fondly remembers the days when he owned (and could get into) a pair of leather trousers…
15. Jose
I’m sorry, I don’t think I can.
16. Adrian
You don’t think you can what?
17. Jose
Describe the benefits of leather trousers, without mentioning Lenny Kravitz.
18. Adrian
There are no other men, closer to home that spring to mind at all?
19. Jose
thinking
Ummm… do you mean Tim?
20. Tim
What, even if they are worn with cowboy boots?
21. Tim
Besides I wouldn’t call Adrian’s attire trousers as such - more backless leather chaps…
22. Adrian
No, I didn’t mean Tim. Someone you have seen naked.
23. Tim
What makes you think Jose hasn’t seen me naked? She thanked me afterwards…
…and told me that she hadn’t laughed so hard in ages.
24. Jose
Oh right. In that case you must be talking about yourself, cause I know that I’ve never seen anyone else naked. Ever. ahem.
looks innocent
25. Adrian
Right. Good. Thats what I thought.
I don’t have to kill Tim now, the liar.
26. Tim the liar
Cowboy boots still rock.
27. Adrian
Ne’er a truer word was spoken.
They make a man look more attractive to women too.
28. zed
leather trousers - oh yes oh yes oh yes oh yes oh yes
cowboy boots - (depending on the style) - oh yes oh yes oh yes oh yes oh yes oh yes.
and that’s about it.
29. Adrian
aaah Zoe/Zed now if you could just explain the cowboy boots thing to Jose
30. melly
I’m sorry, but there is nothing sexier than a white tank top, cut off jeans, and cowboy boots. On a woman, anyways.
I probably feel this way because I live in Texas.
31. pixeldiva
Leather trousers - drool.
Scuffed cowboy boots (the new ones are a giveaway that the person is a poseur, and actually, they should be worn with appropriate faded and worn jeans (t-shirt optional) and on feet attached to the right kind of body) - drool.
Leather trousers and cowboy boots? - wrong. very. very. wrong.
Dragon: memory lane is wonderful, but photograph alley is better :)
32. Chris
You need a better encoding for that MP3, Super Ade. We didn’t kill you in the end, did we? Mind you, Dan had a bloody good go with that cocktail…
33. Lori
So… when do we get to see pics of you in those leather trousers then? ;)
34. Ross
This snippet from XfM is the funniest thing I’ve heard since … well, it’s probably the funniest thing ever! Hope you had a good time at the Torture Garden and that you and your leather trousers made it back in one piece!
35. Adrian
Leather trousers are all fine and dandy.
Unfortunately there are no pictures due to someone being a little hungover between the braai and TG. Not mentioning names, but it wasn’t me.
36. Princess of Darkness
Leather pants = a good thing (usually).
Cowboy boots = a very very oh so very wrong thing. Except on Mickey Rourke. And Sevitz, you are not Mickey Rourke.
(Live from CowTown at the height of Stampede. I know whereof I speak.)
37. Adrian
There is no proof that I am not Mickey Rourke.
Mickey Rourke and I never been seen in the same place at the same time (cf. Clarke Kent / Superman).
38. Mickey Rourke
Damn right he’s not Mickey Rourke - I am!
Leather pants? Now that’s an altogether different kettle of fish…
Mine have the studs on the INSIDE…
39. Clarke Kent
He’s not me either
40. Superman
Nor me…
although he (Mr Sevitz) does have a tendancy to wear red pants outside his trousers.
Did I mention that cowboy boots are the choice of real superheroes?
41. Adrian
For anyone curious those past three comments where from Tim.
I have your IP address fool.
42. Tim
Look, times are hard for Superheroes and film stars. Mickey, Clarke and Superman were just here borrowing my PC to do a spot of email.
I think that this illustrates the difficulty of online identity verification perfectly.
43. Adrian
I think the only thing that this illustrates is that you don’t have enough work to do.

NO MR SEVITZ, I HAVE YOUR IP ADDRESS…
