#1 Are they exempt from the fine if the dragon is showing (yesterday's posting)???

#2 "anyone who displays his or her underpants in a "lewd or indecent manner."

Um.... Unconstitutionally vague.

#3 This is certainly going to cut down on housing construction in Virginia. Insert the usual crack about carpenters and plumbers here.

#4 There is a plumber exemption. I don't think there is one for carpenters.

#5 The more I think about the pants themselves, though, the less they make sense to me.

I was reading somewhere (I can't remember where) the other day, that these things almost look as if they were designed to be as unflattering to the female figure as possible, simultaneously making the hips look narrow, the legs look short, the belly look flabby, and to make every single percentage of body fat _stand out_.

(Maybe it was John Weidner at Random Jottings? Or Moira Breen? I think they both talked about the general subject).
