Re: Fat, Out-of-Shape Sailors

In the USA we are still heavily under the influence of "Politically Correct" speech and thus your statement would be phrased - "But I am shape-challenged. . . "
- - Short people are "vertically-challenged."

I agree.

You can't believe most pictures you see in Magazine's or on TV. Some of the best looking actors and actresses without their makeup drop from a 9 or 10 to a 5 at best.

Re: Fat, Out-of-Shape Sailors

I remember a short poem from my childhood.
I don't remember who penned it.

"I like my girls Platinum
With some fatonum
For the purpose of patinum"
