      Kind of interesting, my 822 pair were really smelly last night and they are nowhere ready to be washed yet. So I dumped 92 percent isopropyl alcohol all over them last night and let it evaporate off. They don't smell the same way anymore. Now they smell like mothballs or something similar. I plan on soaking them maybe if I ever get more than a day off soon.

        @vaquero357 neither.  Laparoscopic so a series of smaller incisions they just bandaged up that are supposed to hold for about 10 days.  They said the hernia was pretty large, which made it "difficult to pull everything back together" which wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear  😃
        Surgeons got the job done, though, so good on them.  They did mention though that my recovery, and it's ensuing soreness, would probably be a while.  Oh well.  I'm the dummy that didn't get it taken care of sooner. 
        I'm gonna have to tell the IH Crew to add "perfect surgery recovery clothes" to the 805 page.  Buttons on the side to get an ice pack where I need it has been clutch.  My chore now is to try and ignore aches and get some sleep.

          @Filthy while I understand in the end they "are" just clothes, your free wheeling approach to shrinkage and experimenting is always interesting  😎

            I hope you feel better soon, my friend. I went through something similar when I was ten. The pain was excruciating and also probably why I have a penchant for opioids now. 🤔

            That's awesome. Nobody like penisy smelling jeans 😂 it was a necessity.

              I got a prescription for five oxycodone.  Back in highschool when I got my wisdom teeth out they were handing that stuff out like candy  😃
              While I'd love not to take them, I'd say they were on the stingy side haha

                    Went to the park yesterday with the wife and kids and took a walk around the neighborhood today. Living in Missouri can be a mixed bag at times, but it never lacks in natural beauty. Love this time of year. Ombré from Mother Nature.

                      One of the many cool things about this place is seeing how the other hemisphere lives… ok not quite hemisphere, but you get my drift. Lovely pics.
