re: “Cards only” and charging a fee

How is this legal?
Blame Ronnie in the White House and the greed of the 1980's.
They let currency be privatized with profits not related to risk like banking and insurance. The banks back then went from a business based on profits from interest spreads.
Pay low interest to savings accounts
Charge higer intrest to money lent
Make revenue from management of the spread
Now banks make money from
Fees
Additional charges
The overpriced "skim" for wealth management
In the 1980's the bank lobbyist in Washington made credit and credit rating the defecto measuring tool. When you get insurance, it is based on your credit rating. Same for many other decisions you are unaware of. The credit cards now "skim" purchasing power that the old mob / organized crime could dream about.
Before 1980, 1 dollar purchased 1 dollar in goods or services
Since, a private company takes between 2.5% to 5.0% off that dollar your (the citizen consumer) now has about 95% in real purchasing power.

You definitely need to add Japan to this list
To be fair, who can afford Brioni or Brasiio so Italy may be priced out. London may be the same, but unless they replaced real tailors over there, they are all dead or in nursing homes and their skills are lost. Have not had a suit made in Hong Kong since the British left and the Red Chinese replaced them.
Never had a suit made in Japan but if those Hong Kong tailors fled to there and they trained the next generations in apprenticeships, could see this happening. Good to know, but at my age, not like I am buying any new suits.

re: The five least valuable schools in the SEC.

You're welcome to your opinion but at least Mississippi State is an original founding member of the conference. We all can't be super rich schools like UGA, Alabama, Texas, Florida, ATM and LSU.
In the early days of the country, the state of Mississippi contained the city with the most millionaires per capita in the entire country. They are also one of the smallest states in the country in population. This is more complicated in supporting 2 Power Conference schools that spilt the pools more than a state like Arkansas or LSU that has the state all to themselves.
You can say State does not belong, but it just means you have never been to Starkville. What they may lack in money and big city action is more than made up in the people. Both the fans and the locals are probably the nicest and best representatives for all other fans to emulate. As an Ag school, they feed you, so the size of their hat is of little importance.

Vandy has nothing to worry about. Their value comes in being the only private school in the SEC.
Dores have the most value
If memory serves, they are the only SEC school on the honor system
Their best school is not law, business, or science, but Education
Dr Dudley (a Kentucky lad) was the person who founded the SIAA, which became the SoCon, which became the SEC. In the early day of sports, they were the king of the hill in the South. With the end of World War II and GI Bill that followed, they were the what the State schools now are.
Utx still does not have a winning record against the Dores in football, mens basketball, or baseball. How many other current or former SEC schools can make this claim?
As the only private school in the SEC, they shield all other public schools in the SEC from FOIA exposure.

FWIW, feel bad for HRV with not leaving the Poli Board alone. That is a world of delusion unlike most places on the internet. All those hits allow The Cluckster to live the good life of beer koozies and work visas for Dhillip and Dhillip Jr. Can you imagine the curry bills for those two and bailing Larry Leo out of the City Hotel for stalking the women around the country.
Makes you feel bad for Chicken with that kind of overhead.

As to the reality it was all a big cartoon like.
Back of the yard where the privacy fence dog legs at right angle between the property line and the garden. I am standing facing the neighbor when a rabbit darts out along the fence line in front of me. Dog door is the very opposite end of the back yard so my youngest male coon hound (full grown) has the whole back yard to pick up speed. Instead of going around me he shoots the small gap between my legs and I never see or hear him till I am already falling back.
Whacked the back of my head on the solid plank fence and took off a 2x2 to 3x3 patch of scalp and hair. Was told it looked like I had been scalped by a midget Indian (feather). Was lucky was not knocked out cold, but painful. In addition, reached out my arm to catch the 90 degree fence going sideways to break my fall so that shoulder took the full brunt and looks like a rotator cuff issue now, so PT for the next 2 months to see if it heals or we go to surgery.
The silver lining. The mountain Muledegon pal of mine next door passed about a year or two ago in his mid 80's. His widow heard the crack of my noggin on the fence and saw all the blood turning my head into a big red squashed mater. He was a doc before he passed so she knew a thing or two about patching me back up. Thank god I was not on blood thinners or I would have bled out. She took me to her place and cleaned and dressed the wound like a pro. Got to kick back on the couch while she made me a nice dinner. More, good news, no EMT run and no stitches. Now she changes the dressing daily in the afternoon and we chat about her kids and grandkids.
When I can stand some more time in the sun or healed to I can put a hat on again, will go over and trim her shrubs a bit as a thank you for all she did.

Ali is a good due to the popularity
I might mention the female golfer who was murdered at the Lexington Country Club by robbers. Killed in her youth, she was the anchor that helped create the LPGA. Had she not been killed, imagine if Tiger Woods or Jack Nicklaus were born in Kentucky and was a female. I think this all happened in the 1920's, just a bit before my time but still mentioned in the over 80 crowd today.

Mens trousers have gussets aka dutchmen. It is on the inseam around the crotch and stops your "package" from busting the seams when it gets all angry like "The Incredible Hulk".

Side you dress on
Buttons, not zipper
Heel pads (so the back of your trousers to not wear bare)
Silk knee inside (so your pants slide well when sitting)
Waist buttons (for button suspenders, not metal alligator's)
So many things modern men have no clue about so a well tailored suit lasts for decades.
For ages, the only places to get a well made men's suit on earth
