If I had a VCR, the clock would not be blinking “12:00″ but only because I have a teenaged child.

When my mobile phone was new, I read the manual and was able to store new telephone numbers for the speed-dialing function, but now I have my kid do that when necessary. Same thing for sending text messages.

However, I still get dressed by myself in the morning, which may be why I’m not sure, today, whether I’ve got my boxer shorts on right, or backwards. Constructed of some high-tech fiber, the seams are practically invisible and make it hard enough to tell whether they’re inside-out or not. Add to this the fact that there is no fly and it’s hard to tell which end is the front.

Ah, I hear you say, the tag, Mig. The tag goes in the back. To which I must respond, this pair has two tags, one in front, on the outside, serving a branding/decoration function I suppose, and on in the usual place, on the inside in the back. It would help a lot if one tag included the words, “ass goes here” or something but alas.
