Manolo the Columnist
Manolo says, the latest column of the Manolo it is available for the dowload at the site of the Express of the Washington Post. The topic it is the wearing of the white shoes after the Day of Labor. Also, happily, the Manolo he is able to report that the editors, they have alloted to the Manolo sufficient space so that all of his column it will appear.
Later today, the Manolo he will post the column here.

Re: the wearing of the white shoes after the Labor Day, the penalty is still death, no?

I am not in the agreement with the Superfantastic One. I believe the Commandment of the White Shoe is one of those “lines in the sand” rules that is most important. While it is indeed meaningless and petty, if we do not respect these rules of the petty, then what is next? Flip flops at the White House? Elbows on the table? Checkered prints with stripes? It will never stop!
It will someday lead to the horrific sight of the maids of the brides in white.

La BellaDonna does not wish to confuse, confound nor upset the Uncle Fester, but the maids of the brides have worn white, certainly as far back as the 17th century, in attendance upon one of the daughters of the King of England. It is not to be wondered at, as (back in the mists of the time) one of the functions of the maids of the bride was to confuse and confound (not to mention upset) any attempts by a rival suitor to kidnap the bride.
(For the small comfort that it is, La BellaDonna is suitably horrified at the prospect of the elbows on the table, the checkered prints with stripes, and the flip-flops (!) at the White House.)
