Depends on what time of day or night and who is with me.  Nighttime with my wife, birthday, nighttime/daytime with my kids or friends, swim suit.

Birthday suit works betted in the spa, skin against spa  holds you in place better.

 ::)Swimsuits, we don't need no stinking swimsuits!

Having no kids at home and with privacy day or night it's birthday suit.

I found that going without the suit was drawing larger and larger crowds.

We tried selling tickets, but the bookeeping became a nightmare, and the price of printing was just through the roof.

So - alas - we're back in our suits.

Usually by the second or third date they're convincable that a suit will scratch and damage the hot tubs surface.
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Retired (mostly) from the industry after 33 years...but still putzing around with a consumer information website, and trying to sell obsolete owners manuals

I always have my guests step on the scales first.  That will usually determine whether it will be skin, swimsuit, or burlap.

Measure once, cut twice.

Depends who is around, but when it is cold outside, a wet suit clinging to your skin after exiting is cold and uncomfortable.  You stay warm for a while after exiting, but the wet suit gets cold almost immediately.

You should have just broadcast it on the internet, no printing required. All elctronic credit card transactions. Man I can't beleive you didn't think of that!

I put itching powder in my wife's swimsuit. She quickly got another. I did the same and then convinved her she's alerrgic to the fabric. Birthday all the way.

Birthday suits always, except usually in mixed company. Anyone's slightest discomfort with that trumps being naked. I find my trunks fill up with air fairly rapidly and I start floating around. Funny, I've got probably more embarassment issues with wearing a speedo than going au naturale. Go figure.

Whew, when you started talking about your trunk, I got a little worried.

Bragger.  Ya know, it's not  How many you have  that counts.  It's the size.....  Or is it the more the merrier?

I dont know, it's one of those cutesy little phrases.  

;D ;D

This topic has enticed me to share a story that I may be sorry for but I can’t help myself.

Many years ago I lived in a duplex and had an old HS Classic in the backyard. These places where less then 20ft apart and had little to no privacy so a “birthday suit” was not an option most of the time.

This particular night it was about midnight, I had used the spa earlier in the day and hung my wet swimsuit out the backdoor on a nail, I wanted to get in the spa yet had no desire to put on a wet, cold suit so I reasoned that everyone would be in bed anyway so in the nude I went. The soak went well but as I got out and started to close the cover the little old lady behind me turned on here floodlight and put me on “runway display”.

Now before I go any further you need a mental image; I was a competitive weightlifter and boxer with a long curly mop of hair and am covered in hair from head to toe. Needless to say I looked like a “Neanderthal” with all of that hair plastered to me!

I turned to run into the house and slipped and fell, trying to regain balance and run at the same time I found myself running on all fours!   :-X

Thirty minuets later the local police knocked on my door and basically fell into one another laughing when I answered the door in a towel. Amidst their laughing and chuckling they were able to explain that they had a call from a hysterical woman sobbing that there was a “Werewolf” running loose!  They said they didn’t know whether to send Animal control or police at that point. Believe me, for the next year in our little town, our local police had a lot of fun with me on that one! :-[

Sorry if I’ve traumatized any of you with this story but hey, it is Halloween!  ;D ;D  8)
