I'll start having to wear pants instead of shorts soon,even worse when it's time to break out jackets. How often places i go out to eat at can't seem to grasp that asking for no onions in my food means i don't want onions in my food. I love onions on almost everything. I just put some on my mac and cheese a couple nights ago. They discussed the shorts thing on KQ radio years ago when I lived in the Cities. Many people called in and said that, like myself, they'd wear shorts all year if people would simply accept that fact. But, due to the social interaction, they stopped wearing them in the cold. I used to walk the dog late at night in shorts despite cold and snow. I, and many callers, couldn't figure out why ladies can wear skirts all year, but guys can't wear shorts.
