    We are living in a *very* casual age...too casual at times for my tastes.
    You'll *never* see me wearing flip - flops to the White House ;---)

    That sounds like Bo Bice. Did he do that???

    I don't know who Bo Bice is, but unless there's another "incident" I
    believe the references is to the women's National championship lacrosse
    team from Northwestern University. They were invited to visit the
    White House and had their picture taken with President Bush. When the
    photo hit the media, it was noticed that something like 9 of the 14
    ladies in the front row of the photo were wearing flip-flops. Their
    idea apparently was to auction off the flip-flops on ebay to raise
    money for a young girl with a brain tumor, but their family members
    (and then others, when the story hit) were horrified at the lack of
    decorum it showed. It was a flash-in-the-pan newsstory for a few days.
