Prince of Darkness keeps his cool
“It’s mind over matter,” Bob Novak said when the journalist was asked how he can bear to wear those three-piece suits in the middle of summer.
At a lunchtime chat Thursday at Dezenhall Resources, Novak, who recently authored “The Prince of Darkness,” blamed it on the demands of his TV appearances.
“It looked better on television to see a vest than a big old belly,” he said. “The camera people told me those seersuckers weren’t good for TV” because of all the lines.
He also said there’s a certain type of respect that results from wearing a dark, three-piece suit on a 100-degree day, especially when you’re not breaking a sweat. People look at you and say, “That guy knows something,” Novak said.
