    I hear comments on peoples' pants all the time. People even get nearly violent over which pants other people are wearing, or the way they are being worn. Pants are an extremely contentious artical of clothing.

    Right along with any other artical of clothing...

    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Oh I know what you mean Ted. "Do I have to have a family connection to this denim?" "Did you see that guy over there with his pleats on the BACK of his pants?"

    Now a days, Rob...

    Yes.

    I do recall wearing the wrong color jeans and the wrong fit would get you in deep trouble. Shoes are probably the worst... And back in college, many students were wearing their pants backwards. It would probably have been safer to wear a kilt when I was growing up. Oh the pain of wearing the wrong clothes to school!

    So, with myself, agree I.

    Actually you are right. I just betrayed my age by forgetting those things! Plus, I went to a Catholic high school where we had to wear grey flannels and blue blazers. It was a little tough to look out of place there (I often wore jeans and no blazer and took the detention. Apparently I held the boys record for # of detentions in a year. My sister had the girls record.)
