I wore dresses as a kid, teen and older. I was taught how to sit and all that but don't wear dresses anymore. My 11 year old niece and 4 year old great-niece both wear dresses. They both have been taught how to walk, sit and whatever. If I am tak

When I was Stationed at Miramar in San Diego, the Blue Angels performed. Later that night, two of them were cited for skinny dipping, and drunkenness at an off base apartment swimming pool! We Jarheads got a chuckle outta that!
