thought I'd bring back High Hair Lady

Maybe her posture will rub off on me.

Holly's grandmother was taught to sit as if her spine was fused to an iron rod. I pictured one of those pieces of metal with little semi-scored divisions that you see at construction sites---I think they put them inside concrete to reinforce it. Kinda like long Tootsie rolls.

Hmmm... we haven't had a poll here in a while:

Well, I'm not going to be able to resist chiding you for "I look disgusting"---c'mon, crazyp: disgusting? For me, anyway, the issue isn't one of appearance. (At least not unless/until it means me being an old lady, should I make it that far, who's slumped over all the time.) I do buy that alignment is good for the ol' physiog, though, and I too wish there were some old-school reminder teacher lurking about.

Maybe someone can successfully market the Posture Policer (or, better, a name that doesn't involve law enforcement): a battery-powered desktop figurine of a stern elder that either detects slouching & reacts with a rebuke (I'd prefer a verbal one to caning, m'self) or just spouts off a chastising reminder every so many minutes. Of course these days it could just be a computer desktop buddy, done by programming.
