    Haha. When I finish working out, if I'm not dripping from head to toe I feel like I failed. I'm pretty sure I stink too but a gym is surely one place that's acceptable!

    I agree, but I I feel better (and smell better) in cotton t-shirts when I get done than I do in the Dri Fit!

    Yep. The key is to draw the moisture away from your skin. Interestingly enough, the same concept applies to cold-weather clothing/dressing. You want the base layer to draw moisture away from your skin.

    Baha, what, the woman in suspenders or the reason a woman should never wear pantyhose?

    Sorry, had to mention it. Gross, but essential!

    I think, Kim, a number of forum readers may now be imagining you in suspenders.

    Not me, obviously.
