A while back I grabbed a bag of depends at a chain drug store (probably Rite Aid) and a box of the Chubs baby wipes (the kind in the Lego-ish box). As I'm checking out, the clerk notices the wipes and asks me how old my baby was. I point out the depends and say both packages are for me. She got red. A long long time ago, I ordered some adult (cloth) diapers through Sears. The clerk insisted on opening the opaque overwrap to make sure "things were OK." In retrospect I think she was curious as to what adult diapers looked like. Back then I was mortified. Today I would have engaged her in a discussion.

We're friendlier than the grownups. Always willing to lend a hand.

Same with getting my hair cut. My wife was surprised that I wore them to my ENT appointment. I pointed out he was supposed to checking my ears. Unless he's like Dr. Kim who makes everybody take their pants off:

Maybe Sketchman-DL from Deviant Art should ask for royalties. It appears to be his image.

So, do they want more breaks or better diapers?

Just remember that when the chips are down, the cows have been eating geese.

Either way it keeps the ketchup that leaks out of my burger off my shirt and shoulder harness when eating while driving.

My grandsons had a bib with a more formed crumb catcher. It took a while before I found one that would fit me, but I like wearing it:

I have the diapers which I like a lot plus the t-shirt and the cloth diaper cover.

Does doing it in a diaper count?

Tiny amount of fulminate of silver on some gravel. Great fun. We used to try to make them with ammonium triiodide in high school (easier to synthesize) but after a few mishaps the school started being careful to lock up the raw materials (not that it ever led to something like the USNDH "College without walls" incident).

It wasn't an adult diaper but I came across a novel use for a baby diaper. For a while, I was a pretty serious airbrusher. When you change color (or are done for the day), you have to clean out the existing paint in the brush, so you end up spraying it on something (usually old news papers). Well, I got this thing at the art supply store that was essentially an oatmeal box with a hole in the top that you pointed your brush into when cleaning it out. Great idea. After using it for about a year, I decided to open it up and see what was inside. There was some fibrous stuff at the top and underneath was a single baby diaper. I guess it was absorbent enough.

I find it disconcerting to be the same age as old people.

I got caught a few times as a teen living at home. My mother had found my stash (and my on-paper diaper writings, this was way before PCs). She told me to get rid of them. A while later I was at home when she came home and since I was wearing a diaper and had a baby bottle, I dived under the bedcovers. She caught me again. My sister found my plastic pants in a bag I had. Later on one girlfriend was trying to figure out what I was finding so damned interesting on CompuServe and found me in the HSX AB forum. She had S&M tendencies so we played a bit. My (eventual) wife found my stash before we got married. She had be do a bit show and tell of everything including my diapers and dresses.

I had a stretch where I was essentially 24/7 but I liked the h&l/cloth diaper for work as it made it easy to get them down in case I wanted to use the toilet for #2.

Velcro is a trademark. Hook and loop is the generic term for it and they had the patent for it until the mid-seventies, so the name has been synonymous with it. I'm not overly fond of "cloth" backed diapers where most H&L tapes reside. A few plastic ones have a nubby landing zone and use a H&L-like closure.

Actually, I've had pretty good luck with Walgreens. My mom was in Canada and needed some medication replaced. Her Walgreens (in DC) contacted mine in Virginia and arranged for me to get the drugs so I could FedEx them up to her hotel in Canada.

BestBuy doesn't administer the card. It's citibank (if I recall properly) that administers it. BestBuy just gets a kick back.

Interesting collection of "posters" for those nights: The last one seems to have ben earlier this year. Don't see any upcoming on their calendar (seems to have been supplanted by more regular underwear nights).

Exactly, like mine.

Congrats!

I usually wear mine, but I carry an extra for my wife if she decides she needs to use one.
