    Some character somewhere gets paid to write about his likes and dislikes in socks, while we do it for free. Who's smarter?

    A valid point!

    My take on it is three-fold.

    1. I'm wearing white socks right now. However, I don't wear white socks all the time.
    2. I'll wear white hose with a kilt if I feel like it. However, I don't wear white hose all the time.....just when I feel like it.
    3. I can turn a bigger caber than he can.

    Just read Denise Winterman's full article and half agree on several pointers. My minds eye has her writing this while sitting at home in sweats as it takes too long to dress by her out of date rules that conflict with each other at times.

    I was taught early to avoid using the words always and never.

    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.
