The first person to respond will then announce a "Topic" for discussion*. It can be as unclear, ambiguous and vague as you'd like it. Being of interest to the masses is a plus! Being informative is not necessary.


Remember the "Topic" you choose can be in any form. One or several words or phrase form. Please highlight your choice of topic in some manner.

* No politics or other ugly topics please.


Thanks to all for your contributions, large or small!

Size matters. Clothes. One manufacturer makes size med that fits like an extra large. Another company makes size 4 that fits like a size 6. Different manufacturers, different ideas of sizing.

It never ceases to amaze me when I look at historic photos or see antique clothing in museums: How small-boned people were compared to now! They were shorter, their shoulders were narrower, and their waists were comparatively tiny. Even the shoes look small. I am guessing that the improved nutrition and health care we began to enjoy in the 20th century has led to humans gradually increasing in size.

I've got to break down and buy some new clothes. After losing around 80 lbs now nothing fits now. Size does matter if you want to keep them own.

Next time you take a tour through a old 1700 era village notice the height and width of the doors and doorways along with stairs..
