WOW!!! the mowing and shopping in a bra story made me laugh a bit. It is odd because I remember a time my dad a marine corps veteran went through a time of wearing very short cut of nasty ratty jean shorts and walking with a cain when he didnt even need a cain.(my mom now tells me that is when he was going through an MLC). So it made me laugh when my Husband also a marine vet started wearing THE SAME SHORTS!!! it is so embarrassing and he never met my dad so it was a total coincidence. This is a man that was always pressed and starched and when this started he would wear these shorts to christmas dinner. the frays on them hang down to his knees but they are much much to short. He is cutting down on wearing them now but they still make there way out in public some days.
