Senior Dress Code

I received this from a girl friend this week. I wonder if she does not like the way I dress or something:)
Senior Dress Code
Many of us over 60, WAY over 60, or on the way to 60 are quite confused about how we should present ourselves. We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to conform to current fashion. In spite of what you may have seen on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should be avoided:
1. A nose ring and bifocals
2. Spiked hair and bald spots
3. A pierced tongue and dentures
4. Miniskirts and support hose
5. Ankle bracelets and corn pads
6. Speedo's and cellulite
7. A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar
8. Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor
9. Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge
10. Pierced nipples that hang below the waist
11. Bikinis and liver spots.
12. Short shorts and varicose veins.
13. Inline skates and a walker..
And the ultimate 'Bad Taste' in fashion for the older folks...
14. Thongs and Depends.
With Spring having arrived and Summer coming soon I think we should
keep these basic guidelines in mind when shopping.

Oh. My. Goodness. Not just for the older folks-! I will post this code to my facebook so all my aunts and uncles can have a laugh. They had better NOT commit any of these fashion faux pas or the fashion police will hunt them down!

Now I know how I am suppose to dress ...O I needed that laugh..

Yes you can knit 2 socks at the same time .Its easy once you get the hang of how to turn your socks so as not to tangle your yarn, and Always hold the end of the needle you are going to be working your stitches off and pull on the other end , that way you know you have the right needle , easy once you do it a few times.I do them Queen Kahanna way. I got her book, Crazy toes and heels cause I like the visual as well as written instructions. Its on here on her web site' http://www.queenkahuna-creations.com/
