When we first saw them on TV, I asked the SO if she would like one, as she
always rugs up when it gets cold. She said (and I quote) ....
"I wouldn't be seen dead in one, and if you wrap me in one when I'm dead,
I'll come back and haunt you for the rest of your life!!".
So that sorted that issue :-)
Seems bad taste is a prerequisite for attending an Obama inaugural address!!

stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad
drink, though."

I don't have one, but they aren't meant as a fashion statement. They are
just a way to stay warm in frigid climates while saving money on central
heating. We have a few lengths of Polarfleece fabric to wrap up in
while reading or watching television. It does the job.
Yeah, it'd be Ok if they were left indoors, I'n all for keeping warm
without costing a fortune in heating........ but the ad says to wear them
to the footy!!
And, as stated, they were seen being worn at Obamas inaugural speech!!

Peter probably downed a couple bottles of adulterated wine before getting on
the computer for a few hours of trolling.

Obama's inaugural speech was held outdoors on a bitter cold day in
February. People had to wait hours in line to get anywhere near the
inauguration stage, plus everyone had to be searched by security, so
they dressed to deal with the icy weather, not to make any kind of
fashion statement. |

You write a sentence like that and say that I'm "of it's meds"?
You must have downed AT LEAST four bottles of wine before you posted!
