DUBYA: THE SAUDI CANDIDATE?
Krugman's column in the NYT today is daring! Krugman goes, point by
point, to show that Dubya's actions are playing into the hands of
Osama & Co in ways that are both strange and mysterious!
The implication is that Dubya is similar to the Manchurian Candidate
in the movie!
In a country less free than the US, Krugman would likely be arrested
for printing such "treason." But wait, Dubya only has his first term
under his belt. Just imagine what could happen during a SECOND TERM! Stay tuned.....Mr Krugman.
THE TUCKED IN THING?
Should you tuck in your thing, or just let it all hang out?
This fashion dilemma is tackled on the front page of the NYT today.
It seems that wearing shirts with tails untucked is all the rage
now. But, is this related to the AMERICAN OBESITY PROBLEM?
Remember, these days, even the fashion conscieous young tend to be
obese!
So, wearing shirts with tails untuck is not just for the flabby
middled aged types anymore. Indeed, the photos in today's NYT to
support the trend, seem to show guys who, perhaps, are trying
to "hide something." Ya think?
My suggestion is that if you have a truly flat stomach, and you're
not trying to "hide something." You should tuck in your shirt at the
start, but wear your pants a bit too loose, thereby allowing the
shirt to "untuck" itself naturally!!
This will split the difference, and give you the highly
desireable "half tucked" athletic look--with no danger of being
accidently mistaken for a Middle Aged Fatty! Get it?
Anyway; my hopes regarding the new fad for the fashionable boyish
look is currently limited to finding those older narrow ties from the
60's and 70's. They're great fashion statements. Really!
And they look so much better than the current wide "bibs" now on
offer in the stores.
Modern "wide ties" make even thin people look fat! Or worse,
ridiculous!
I'm attempting to bring back the narrow tie as a fashion statement.
Please help............
Hollywood types and Fashionistas take note:
My prediction for the next big thing? THE RETURN OF KNICKERS!
And, as always, remember, you heard it here first!
GREEN AND LEAFY, OR?
It was reported this weekend that women who eat "greens" like lettuce
and spinach have "better memories." Apparently the researchers asked
a bunch of women what they have been eating for the last ten years,
and then gave them some simple congintive tests.
Surprise, the greens eaters scored better!
BUT JUST MAYBE, THE PEOPLE WHO ATE THEIR VEGGIES WERE SMARTER TO
BEGIN WITH? AFTER ALL A BALANCED DIET THAT INCLUDES VEGGIES IS NOT
NEWS, ANYONE WHO READS OR IS OTHERWISE "WIDE AWAKE" KNOWS THIS.
Perhaps this "study" is just another case of
scientifically "discovering" that poor people "have less money!"
to be continued.................
