Great Inventions

Shorts is a weird invention. It's not pants, it's not underwear but right in between. Wonder who came up with the idea? Was there one guy working at a clothing factory going, "Jim, come and take a look at this. I cut the pants in half and it's going out like that."
What's next? Half a sock? "Jim, what do you think of my new socks?" "They go great with the pants."
