I'm intrigued as to why old men would keep eggs in their trousers!

This substance is also rumored to be used to coat Mafia dons from head to toe.

You mentioned that old men's trousers are treated on the outside just as I was reaching for the remote.

Sorry, 'm still a teeny bit confused....
Are you someone who carries a TV remote around with you on the offchance that you will need it if surprised; say, by the sudden realisation that teflon trouser treatment exists? smiley - smiley

No. Remote control technology is not yet that advanced (except in Japan, perhaps). The "remote" I was refering to is metaphorical, I'm afraid. If I did possess a truly "universal" remote, I would have used it this morning to rewind life to the point when I could have performed spade surgery on the bastard who pulled up one of my new yellow wood trees.
