Edna's Irish Proverb
When looking fondly
At your parents' wedding photo,
Be grateful if your mother is
The one wearing the dress.

What...
no pants suits? There are some women that I really don't want to see in a dress. Or men either, for that matter. Funny proverb though. ~ Geezer.

"pants suits"???
Trouser suits are NOT a flattering look for many women. Think of Mrs Clinton! Probably why she lost THAT election!

Hi Edna, definitely made me
Hi Edna, definitely made me laugh. Is it a true Irish proverb or did you make it up? I agree, Clinton with her pants suit probably worked against her. Never liked the woman, but I'd definitely vote for her instead Trump. We have experience in Argentina regarding dictatorships, Trump exuded populism and hard rhetoric, which people fell for. That's how Juan Peron won in Argentina, then became a dictator.
Enjoyed, Gracy

The concept of..
...H.Clinton in a "pants suit" (whatever that is) makes me puke. Mind you, out of one is no better.
