chief, page 609 of the 1975 or '76 sears catalog was much more interesting.
(yes, well, my sister and i laughed a long time over that page.)

actually, two nights ago, i watched a university "history of the western
world" class and thought the cod pieces that fashionable men wore during the
days of yore, were much more imaginative and creative, too.LOL

I hesitate to say the following because the blue ribbons will complain
that I am treating men like so many pieces of meat but there is a
serious purpose in it.

The other day I was looking at the website of one of the PCa orgs and
saw that one of its sponsors is a company called 2(x)ist.  They make
"cutting edge" underwear for men according to their website (hope they
don't mean that literally).

I had found out about this brand because around the time of J's surgery

I was in Filene's shopping for undies for him and I came upon these
"boxer briefs" and I thought they might work for him.  I love regular
boxer shorts because dear old dad wore them but spouse won't put them
on so I thought this was a suitable compromise.  He thought they were
comfy and they looked really good.  They were more expensive than
fruit-of-the-loom or hanes but they were of a much better quality.

Anyway, I am just bowled over by the thought that you can support PCa
research just by wearing underwear!!  That brand, of course. I followed

the link to the company's website and  watched a "fashion show" of
their "collection" and I must tell you that I am not into this sort of
thing at all but I had never before seen such a display of male
pulchritude.  Abs, gluts, pecs, lats, biceps, triceps, hamstrings, you
name it.  My temp. shot up to around 108.  And the underwear was
great-looking too.

I once read that you can give a man a "heterosexuality test" by placing

a Victoria's Secret catalog in front of him and seeing how he reacts.
(J. failed miserably; he wouldn't put down the Economist).  Anyway if
you are a lady and want to test your heterosexuality (or a man who
wants to test your homosexuality) take a tour of 2exist.com.  You will
end up wondering why they call women the fair sex -- I think they got
it a--backwards.
