Trouser Semaphore

Tuesday October 28, 2003
THE FUNNY SITE OF THE DAY -- Say it with trousers. Bottom body language. Talking by the seat of your pants. Lap diction. ... And it explains why I get slapped whenever I check my shoes for gum.

''The acquired skill known as Trouser Semaphore is swiftly gaining currency as the only way for people of quality to communicate in an age of rapidly escalating background noise levels,'' explains ''The Chap Magazine.'' ''You will find it an invaluable communication aid for use socially, in business and for pleasure.''

A letter-by-letter chart with photographs is included to help you learn the language, plus don't miss the Trouser Semaphore demonstration film. I have no idea what the movie's message is, but it did remind me I'm out of Cruex.
