Who are the people in your neighborhood?

By: AF Editors

As a dignified homeowner and pillar of my community, I felt obliged to join our neighborhood e-mail list. Mostly, it deals with police reports, local school issues, and gardeners. Then I got a message advertising

1 pair lederhosen with 2 green hats & a gray hat (all hats wool).

Does anyone want these? They are sized for a man, not a child.
For anyone unfamiliar with the term – this is a pair of leather shorts traditionally worn in Germany, among other countries. Some people may know them from Bavarian Beer Festivals.

Why would anyone need three different hats to go with their lederhosen? And if you like your lederhosen that much, why are you dispensing with them on an e-mail list?
