Unfortunately, pills(legal ones) have become a part of my life. I have been married, happily, for many years, now. I must admit I might lust after Ann Coulter. I melted listening to Karen Carpenter's voice. That was the extent of it.Todd S. Malicoate wrote:Dang, Ray...first Ann Coulter, now Karen Carpenter?TubaRay wrote:Careful, guys.

So it's "Thing a thong about a jock strap." Doesn't have quite the same appeal for you guys, now does it?

Now, on the question of whether the Tubenet thong is for males or females, let's consider the options.
First, some salient facts:
1. Present company excepted, very few females are tuba players. This is, of course, generally their choice, and is based on the same (sensible) female reasoning that causes the ham radio population to be about 99.9999993% male. The males aren't opposed to female involvement in these activities. In fact, some of them seem rather desperate to get it.
1a Corollary. Many women shun tuba players, with the apparent exception of flute players.
2. Very few male tuba players have girlfriends likely to be impressed by such a sartorial choice on the part of their tuba-playing amor. Again, this is a favorable statement on the tastes of those females. Of course, we aren't talking about many tuba players here (see Item 1a Corollary).
3. Many male tuba players have wives, though one can only assume that they took up the tuba after they were married (see Items 1a Corollary and 2 above). In the face of such a display, the most likely result is raucous laughter, which could be injurious to the male's self-image.
4. I will not comment on the qualifications of most of the wives of tuba players to wear such an article of clothing for obvious reasons.
Thus, I conclude that the Tubenet thong has only sold two examples, given the near-total lack of intersection between tuba players, women, and the necessary qualifications. I will not attempt to guess who those two buyers might be, but if you feel that you are thusly qualified, feel free to imagine that I'm including you. (Wade is excluded from this non-insult because I just ate a little while ago, and I don't care if what I say insults him, meanie that I am.)
If more than two Tubenet thongs have sold, then I would prefer not to know.
