I should be correcting exams and working on my manuscript, but i had to share.
On the way across campus yesterday, I passed a young gentleman who was wearing jeans of the "only my manhood keeps these up" flavor - with the waistband well below his cheeks - and about nine inches of plaid boxers visible to all the world as he leaned upon a railing. And smack across his right buttock, inserted into the plaid fabric of the boxers, was a pocket. An actual set-in factory-installed pocket, not a patch pocket, which means that an entire company realizes that the low-slung look makes it impossible for gentlemen to get at the ass-pockets of their jeans (and in fact, that anything placed in said ass-pockets would have the effect of lowering the flag still further).
Pockets in boxers because the half-mast style has made the pockets in jeans unusable.
The world is full of wonderful things.
