Wear a warm hat…moms don’t lie

If your mother is like mine, she frequently reminds you that 80 percent of your body heat escapes through your head. I always doubted this. If it was true, people would have more steam coming out of their ears. But I guess global warming proves Mom is right, and billions of head-heat spewers are ruining the Earth.

The fashion world has officially recognized this, and designers are working on the principle that you can expose as much flesh as you like, anywhere but the head. What else could explain this model combining a sexy black dress with a hat like the ones  emergency snow removal crews wear?

Well, either that, or else her mom is in the audience.

My question is: why did they bother to put cups in that dress, when it’s clear that little twiggy there has nothing to put in them??

Whatever happened to the rule of BMI 18 or higher? If that’s 18, then we still have issues.
