So far the worst that's happened is he was refused entry to a mall. But that is sort of a typical occurance for young men anyway- unless of course they are out with girls, and they go in as a "family" (oh the wacky ironies of living here)<br /><br />I draw the line at traveling though. Trousers must be moral. Someone was refused entry to a plane, and I just am not up for dealing with that.Sandynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569425364802315563.post-24186393574081568282010-03-19T21:48:44.421+03:002010-03-19T21:48:44.421+03:00Hi Anon @6:27AM - Thanks so much.

Were they "high waters"?(pants that don't reach the top of the shoe). Were they tight jeans? Perhaps they were cargo shorts that were just a bit above the knee. <br /><br />It's hard to even imagine what the <i>tawdry trousers</i> might have been. I'm guessing that "sinful slacks" was just an excuse cooked up after-the-fact, like a policeman stopping a suspicious vehicle and then looking around for a broken brake light or smudged license plate to justify the stop.<br /><br />Does anyone know what the <i>terrible trous</i> looked like?Veeds of Arabiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609079024522754584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569425364802315563.post-67795766272791946742010-03-18T21:15:58.410+03:002010-03-18T21:15:58.410+03:00Always love crazy news!
