It raises all sorts of issues, such as: Why aren't any of the other kids dressed like a cross between a ringmaster and a tiny pimp? Even in 1974, was a burgundy sport coat with white piping and gold buttons and matching plaid pants and bow tie a good look for anybody? Was I secretly an Irish step dancer? Is it just sheer luck that I didn't grow up to be one of these guys? It's all very confusing.

Hey, wait, didn't you wear something just like this to the CNC Christmas Party in 1996?
The labels and piping are straight out of the Jim Lange Collection. I love it because it's not me.
The jacket, actually, is pure Captain Kangaroo: http://msnbcmedia.msn.com/j/msnbc/Components/Photos/040123/040123_keeshan_vmed_3p.standard.jpg
The bowtie and pants take you a level past the good Cap'n though. ;)
Stunning. At least everything matches.
Captain Kangaroo -- that's it! Except with the bow tie and pants it's like Captain Kangaroo on his way to a bat mitzvah.
