"Now, what to do this morning. I'm in need of more clothes, if I'm going to catch up to your size..." Jason says.

"And I'll need new duds if I'm to keep ahead of you!" Robby replies. "Let's go hit the mall - we can do the food court while we're there."

The two chunky frat brethren take Robby's car - "No bus for me now!" Robby remarks - and head to the Westside Galleria, which Robby knows has a store for bigger guys. "You can probably get some stuff to fit you at the W-Mart," Robby tells Jason, "but you won't be able to for long, and the clothes are better at this place - and the sooner they know you, the sooner they can set aside stuff you'll lke. Plus, they have all the pants with adjustable waistbands, so you won't have to buy new too often."

"Adjustable waistbands?" Jason queries, as Robby pulls up in front of Gentleman Jim's "for the larger man" shop.

"Yeah, no more size 48 jean tyranny," Robby remarks as the two of them swing along to the shop doors. "Jim's size 48 jeans adjust all the way up to 54 inches! And he has jeans up to size 60 or more."

"Wow," Jason replies, a sudden vision of himself so big he needs size 60 pants filling his mind for a moment.
