There is nothing else.

See Seinfeld.

Look at the pattern.

All bow before her, even as they make blonde jokes.

Is J. Crew really the last of the WASPs? I have lived out on the West Coast for 15 years so I'm not clued in. The WASPs I know like REI and other obscure sports clothing manufacturers; the middle-aged WASP housewives like Land's End, Eddie Bauer and maybe L.L. Bean. J. Crew I haven't heard of since I left NYC. They don't even send me catalogs.

And Brooks Brothers. Isn't Brooks Brothers the echt WASP men's store? Oh I just don't know the codes any longer.
