A news item I ran across says the Taneytown, MD police have issued a warning to wear pants when you go out to your mailbox to get your mail.
One women replied that after being sheltered inside for over thirty days with nothing much to do except munch that hers don't fit anymore!
Another man asked if that only applied to getting the mail, and was it still OK to go to the market and drugstore without pants?
And yet another complained that first it was wear masks, now it's pants, so what's next?
Wasn't it on this site that someone said, "They told me all I needed to go to the market was a mask and gloves; not true, everyone else had clothes on."
My mailbox is a few hundred feet from the nearest corner of my house.?ÿ If I were to stroll out to the mailbox and back without pants I would either get chilled or sunburned, depending on the ambient conditions.?ÿ On nine of ten workdays in a two-week span I could probably get away with it with no one else being aware of my lack of attire.?ÿ There is a large brushy area that would provide quick cover and I could hear any traffic coming for at least a half mile in either direction.?ÿ On the tenth day, my neighbor lady would be home and quite possibly in a position that provides an unobstructed view of my mailbox.?ÿ Of course, this is the same neighbor lady that I told recently that we were saving on toilet paper by having me go out in the yard and drag my butt on the lawn like a dog.?ÿ She then requested that I call to warn her first ahead of such occasions.
I surprised my neighbour the other morning.
He looked at little non-plussed to be found adjusting his gardening water-system while wearing pyjamas, slippers, and a dressing gown straight from hitch hikers guide to the galaxy.
Maybe it was something to do with the fact that he is a judge.
Mornin' Your Honour 🙂
