29.0. "More on Underwear" by ULTRA::WITTENBERG (Secure Systems for Insecure People) Mon Jun 20 1988 17:36

    I was looking at note 859 in V1 (on what underwear are preffered),
    and thought the following discussion would provide some amusement:

Dramatis personae:

Me, then aged about 25
My sister, then 14 going on 30
My mother.

    We were  vacationing  together, and at the moment in question were
    sorting  the  laundry.  I  had been getting in rather late on some
    nights  without  explaining  my  whereabouts. My mother noted that
    some of my underwear were wearing out.

Mother: (exasperated)  David, you can't have an affair in torn underwear!



Sister:  Don't worry Mom, he probably takes them off first.

    Hi David,
    
    While studying VAX Notes literature and conferences, I came across
    this note and want to practice using the REPLY command.
    
    Very amusing anecdote. And very telling.

	Reminds me of a shopping trip with my mother, when I was home from 
	college.

	I was picking out pretty underwear, which of course is more expensive
	than the plain white kind.  My mother made some comment about how my
	sister (3.5 years older than me) didn't seem to need fancy underwear.

	I pointed out that "no one but my sister sees her underwear!".

	My mother shut up.

	Beverly
