Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for August 10, 2012

They come in leather, check ’em out!

Re: HATS FROM MONTGOMERY WARD’S CATALOG (1961)I have it on good authority, that these hats came from Teresa’s personal collection.

I’m very happy to see Godzilla back on the blog…

But I think that pic has been mislabeled, as that does not look like the 1954 Godzilla suit, which should have pointy little ears and four toes.

I’m pretty sure that’s the 1964 “Mosu Goji” suit which was used for that year’s “Mothra vs. Godzilla,” AKA “Godzilla vs. The Thing.”

THE MAN SKIRT PEOPLE ARE REVOLTING!!

He does have the option to accompany the hurly-burly of the utilikilt society.

REMEMBER THE ’45! The Skye Boat Song. Bonnie Prince Charlie and the manskirt people!

Re blog: Kai Time….yes great; let’s eat more wild foods; I agree. BUT tomatoes? I’ve never seen wild tomatoes. Wild sheep keep their tails. Otherwise, fine…it’s your stomach and you can put what you want into it. Next week…100 ways with roadkill.

The man purse became the man bag. Maybe some men keep their man purses in their man bags.

True, they are revolting.

He doesn’t want to show anything below the waist yet, his panties are in such a twist about it.

In California, they’d need that Olds to drive over to the pool. Lucky them! And that pancake is heading down a crowded road: she’s going to run into the dish, the spoon, and the gingerbread man!

Manskirt .. good idea! Now the world will finally see how my garters look.

Abandon all hope ye who put on the manskirt.

Are you sure he’s not trying to skirt the issue?

You can tell from the tilt of his kilt if he’s glad to see you.

Those dark glasses make me wonder if he is blind. If so he could easily skirt the issue.

A long time ago EVERYONE wore skirts. Every man and woman from kings to slaves. It wasn’t until warriors riding horseback found that they needed something between themselves and the horses that pants started to become popular. A History of Pants

And since eventually almost all the warriors on horseback were male, pants became a “male” outfit.

What do the Manskirt People find so revolting?

My son bought his ’hiking kilt ’ from REI. Really freaked his boys when he wore it. Forbade him to wear it on Scout campout.

Is a “manskirt” different from a “womanskirt?” If I decided to wear one of my wife’s skirts … would it then become a “manskirt?”- Just asking.

I believe there is a man somewhere who is campaigning to be allowed to wear a skirt to work. He’s been doing so for some years. If anyone knows more about this I’d be glad to hear.

When I wear a towel after showering, I feel very pretty in my terrycloth manskirt.
