Donald Duck: by day he wears a sailor's jacket, but nothing at all to cover his nether regions. Yet after a shower, he wraps a towel around his waist, as if to shield his privates from public view.

Any theories on this idiosyncratic quirk?

My "bill withered" on that one, Mr. Fitter.

I'll quack it for now while wondering what in Sam Hill was Goofy?

Lemme get this straight; Donald, as mentioned, is a duck; Mickey and Minnie are mice; Pluto is their pet dog...But "Goofy?"

What crazed Disney genius put him into the equation?

Alright, so I had to go for an eye test and they prescribed me spectacles as it turns out I am slightly short-sighted (didn't want to admit it, but the glasses really help with things in the far distance like text).

I possibly bought the most expensive pair of frames on the shelf, but now that they are on my face - I am pretty happy :)

Has anyone else noticed their eyesight getting only mildly worse as they "get on" in years? Or will I soon be holding the menu at arm's length to try and make out the soup of the day? :P

I had to start wearing reading glasses a few years back and DH thought it was funny as hell. He used to tease me when ever I put them on.

He didn't think it was so funny when he found himself borrowing mine. I finally made him go get his own because he was stretching mine and they kept falling off my face :laughing:

With much disgruntlement, I have noticed that since I've had my spectacles (2 pair: one for far away, and one for close-up) my eyesight has dwindled considerably without them. I used to be able to see street sign names without them, now I HAVE to wear them or miss my turn. Same with reading, now that I have glasses for close-up, I can barely read books or magazines without them, when I used to be able to - even if it was a little fuzzy. :crazy:

:D This post was so innocently cute, Sue, that it made me smile.

I believe the term is "near-sighted." "Short-sighted" is a rather derrogatory term for the adjective describing a person's or group's action(s), the long term consequences of which are seemingly unforeseen with possibly terrible far-reaching ramifications to its outcome. No lens in the world can correct this handicap! :cool:

My eyesight was eagle's eyesight till five years ago. I became short-sighted -left eye- and I see more than supposed with my right eye. It's such a mess I should wear three different glasses or contact lens on one eye and also one pair of glasses or go through surgery. plus I have glaucoma, but I feel very happy and I take care of my eyes and put my drops everyday since I was 40.

Sue, you must look amazing with glasses... :cool:

So, I was out driving today. I get stopped by a redlight, at a street named Seagaze. I was driving along the coast so this is a fitting name. I glanced up at the street sign 3 different times and read it as Shoegaze everytime. Thanks Radhi. That would've been cool though huh? ;)
