Sorry, breakfast has already been served. You missed out on a large plate of biscuits and gravy, bacon, and eggs over easy.

I had an english muffin with butter and peanut butter on it for breakfast. It would have tasted better with jam but I don't have any.. :(

Have you tried the Jif whipped Peanut Butter yet? It's really good.

So I'm walking in mall the other day, I guess the prom is coming up because there are prom dresses on display in a lot of stores, but some of these dresses, I'm not sure what to think. I don't want to sound like an old fart but some of them show a lot of skin. Like this one

Kind of skimpy.

okay, so here's a question.

when a dress is flesh-colored, is it more "revealing" or "scandalous" than the same kind/style of dress in another fabrication?

this is something i'm quite curious what you guys think, since i've recently had a debate with a friend about this.

see, one thing many people don't know (mostly men) is that dresses that are more in that hue are often lined, so even though you think you're seeing someone's "flesh" they're actually seeing the nude liner, which is obscuring what is behind it.

for reference, i'm not talking about the above dress in the previous specifically, because it is pretty scant.

but what about, say a dress such as this, below?

is it more "immodest" BECAUSE of its flesh/nude coloration? because that dress below, would pretty much blend into my skin--without much line of demarcation. please note, that this dress is 100% lined, so there would be no actual skin seen, but it might APPEAR that way because of the open lace design.

I know exactly what you're talking about. When I was in band our color guard uniforms looked ridiculoously low cut, I mean like down to the waist! But upon close inspection you see that's its just a flesh-colored fabric that starts at their neck. Its a good thing for them too because we had to perform in 40 degree weather. Ever try to play drums with frozen fingers? :)

Reminds me of a quote from Steven Wright. "When I was in high school our school color was clear. We used to say, "I AM wearing clothes, I'm in the band."
