Today's Question(s):

If you could have something custom made just for you which would you choose
1. Clothing
2. Shoes
3. Jewelry
4. Furniture
5. Other
I would really like to have some clothing that actually fit. For whatever odd reason, the people who dictate how shirts are made seem to think if someone has a 23 inch neck he must also have a 75 inch waist. Now I an not a small person by any means, but if I buy a shirt I can actually button the collar on, I have to be careful to not go out in the wind or all of the excess fabric they think I need in my shirt will balloon up and then I get blown accross the parking lot.

Since I believe it might actually be against the law to make clothing that fits, I will accept a custom made recliner with an extra extension on the foot rest so that my feet do not have to hang over the end if I do not want them to.

Extra Credit Question:

What was the last thing you loaned someone ?
My sanity. I really need to get it back.

Bonus Question:

Now that summer is here,what are 3 things that you won't be doing until Fall arrives ?
1. Making a snowman (snowperson for those that insist on being PC)
2. Christmas shopping
3. Putting away my summer toys

Fess-Up Question:

With all the "social networking" sites out there, have you ever looked up an old boyfriend or girlfriend ?
I have looked up a casual friend or two.

lol did you find them ?
I did find one.

Today in History:
1847 - Doughnut created 1847 was a very good year

Good afternoon all from a rain swept England. It's just awful. Now then, if I could have something custom made it would be a suit. Years ago, all tailors in towns here made suits to measure. Not any more, you have to really look for this service. I have a beautiful made to measure dark suit. Only wear it for weddings and funerals these days.. I don't go on social networking sites. I don't think it is a good idea looking for friends from the past, especially girl friends. I guess we look at the past a little with rose tinted glasses. Anyway everyone, hope your weather is better than mine, and enjoy your weekend!!
