You know how it is - some of us (OK, just me) have underwear almost as old as our kids. If the elastic ain't broke; I figure its good for another wash 'n wear.
Funny how stuff just seems to disappear and new stuff shows up; I used to think it was the underwear angel. Now I figure its the ol' lady taking pity on me. Its only fair, I don't have to look at me in them.
Some MBA figured it out; women buy stuff for sons and husbans more often then we do for ourselves.
