What was your most embarrassing moment?A particular drycleaner’s located on the south side of Kenmore Ave. between Starin Ave. and Main St. (which shall remain nameless) once held my torn tuxedo pants way after the date they were due back to me. Since I needed them for a concert, I had to pick them up on my way to Kleinhans Music Hall, so I hopped in my car dressed for the concert in my concert shoes and socks, a white tuxedo shirt, black bow tie, tuxedo jacket…..AND NO PANTS!!! There was no parking so I had to quickly walk a block (it was February) and pick them up. When asked by the shocked elderly lady at the cash register where my pants were, I calmly replied: “You’ve got them!”
