Title: Water Repellent
Post by: Bo D on February 26, 2010, 01:24:12 PM
As long as they don't try to make women's t-shirts out of this stuff ....

"Engineering researchers have crafted a flat surface that refuses to get wet. Water droplets skitter across it like ball bearings tossed on ice."

Oh my word.

No more wet t-shirt contests?

I am SO happy cotton t-shirts were part of my youth.

Seems like we could still use them though; just turn down the thermostat and await the peaks!  :icon_twisted: :biggrin:

I can say that the discussion is way different than I predicted when I opened the thread :biggrin:

It's hard to be subtle when your jeans are too tight.  :biggrin:

Considering the "bunch" involved, I'm impressed w/your restraint. ;D

Well, we just know our limitations and try to live within the policies.  :angel:

I like spankin's but not the kind I'd get by letting it rip in this area!  :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :icon_twisted: :icon_twisted: :icon_twisted:

My mistake! Maybe one of the admins could move it there for us. Then I could point out how I cleverly managed to use the words "big" and "hard" in successive posts.

The girls I've seen that won those contests were usually interested in "big & rich" as opposed to "big" and "hard."
