That's Right!

There are few that can get by with a genuine strut like that of the backyard Rooster displaying his dominance over his harem. Chuck Berry and Mick Jagger were able to pull it off as part of their stage act, but nothing compares to the authentic soul strut one may only witness from that of the Rhode Island Red or a normal everyday humanoid after he clothes himself in his favorite get up. The "dad coach" of a little league baseball team decked out in full Under-Armour sportswear and blade sunglasses will not hesitate to quick draw his smart phone from his belt as he struts from the dugout to the third base line.  My favorite is the quintessential soul man still pimpin' it out and strutting in full regalia on a Friday afternoon like my man Sir Ralph Clark of Windsor, NC.

Like this Rooster in David "Scurvy" Early's backyard, these people mean business, and if you acknowledge their coolness and give them a respectful nod when you meet them on the street, they will look you straight in the eye with their index finger firmly pointed straight and without missing a step, will eloquently reply, "That's Right!"
