Congratulations on the job, Davis!
You and eveyone else was right about the red shirt. You can wear strong colors and shouldn't be reluctant to. They give you power. (I, on the other hand, would disappear behind a shirt that color.

)
And that's OK about my daughter - she's safely on the west coast. I think you are perhaps the kind of guy that can grow on a gif's mother.
You're on your way.
