[amayausers] Re: Need help with sizing

LuAnn,

No need to apologize, I just didn't catch the sarcasm in the first message.

One of my dad's old bosses before he did the embroidery full time orders 
shirts from us.  He is definetly a XL as my dad is Large and this guy is 
bigger than dad with a belly.  He orders expensive Ping polos and windshirts 
as he is an avid golfer and everytime he orders he gets a Medium.  They are 
streched tight on him when he wears them and dad and I just chuckle 
everytime he orders.  Dad has even suggested going to a large and he won't 
hear of it.  Its pretty funny :)
