21st Century Cotton

Having maintained the same weight since I was seventeen, and adding only one inch to my waist size (Sweet Mom says my shape has changed), I am uniquely qualified to report on 21st Century Cotton. 

I used to wear clothing until it wore out.  Now with the destruction of the American textile industry, we are fortunate to acquire all of our clothing from Asia.  These remarkable fabrics from the Far East never wear out.  They just shrink until they no longer fit.

Used PilePerfectly good shirts, underwear, jeans, and tee shirts all go to the used pile.  Then, off to Wang Mart we go for a new set.  For a few months they fit loose and comfortably.  Jeans start getting tighter, shirttails get shorter, underwear and tee shirts start binding.  My PDA no longer fits my shirt pocket. Before showing much wear, off to the collection they go.

It is rumored that I have grandchildren that never wear clothing twice.  Now Grandpa Davey looks as freshly attired, since his clothes never wear out.
