Return of the Native

1887081574_fa428dd674 Dotting the overhead landscape, colorfully flapping in the proverbial breeze, the "what we wore today" is on display.

See any tighty whities? 

Rarely. 

Perhaps some items are simply relegated to an inside area to dry. 

I ask you, do the neighbors need to know everything?

It depends.

I suspect if you were able to be sporting these you might have a change of heart about what the neighbors think. Man-wearing-swimming-trun-001  

For two reasons.

It appears that in addition to activating any fantasies about what is under Pierre's denims, the coverage of his skivvies may just be the barometer  of economic growth.

Okay, I did take liberties with the undergarment story as this theory of correlation to economic growth has to do with bathing suits...but I imagine that if the theory were to hold true then wouldn't oversized boxers shrinking down to an itsy bitsy bikini type garment portend the same thing.

So the next time you are in Europe take note of the drying garments suspended overhead.  You might be able to figure out which way the Euro is headed.
