I had a friend in Bavaria whose father wore lederhosen as everyday wear. 
But I HAVE been to Italy, and finding a toga wearer was as hard as finding someone with whom I could converse in Latin. I just couldn't dig anybody up.........
DIG UP, get it? 
(Btw, piper, did you ever actually wear the ones your grandmother gave you?)
