Belly Button Lint
Why does a lint ball, the same color as his teeshirt, appear in my husband’s belly button every day?
———- from Mary Ellen Ashby of Colorado Springs, CO
Well, your husband is probably far more fashion conscious than you realize. It takes a lot of sensitivity and patience for him tro find a teeshirt that exactly matches that day’s belly button lint. By the way, the Latin term for such lint is “Ocula Hathaway”, which also explains why that Hathaway shirt man had a patch over one eye. The truly elegant man has a profusion of navel lint that encompasses all the shades of the rainbow. So, you see, marketing and Science have much in common.
