Kickass, the doorstop dog, comments that it is not often, if ever, that the keeper is shut out of the conversational flow, but it occurred yesterday when Phyllis entertained her two granddaughters–Alexis and Taylor, and the subject unaccountably turned to bras.
The discussion seemed to go on for an unconscionably long time, dealing with bra styles, fasteners, convenience, prices, sources, comfort and on and on.
Obviously the keeper had naught to contribute, but as he listened to the ladies talk, he was impressed anew by how his gender escapes lifetime meaningful reproductive burdens, and how its members should appropriately keep their mouths shut until the subject turns to something they might qualify to comment on, like the Packers or the price of gas.
