i couldn't quite remember the meaning of the saying, so i looked it up (i hear that internet has all kinds of useful information):
A stitch in time saves nine. The question usually asked is "saves nine what"? The stitch in time is simply the sewing up of a small hole in a piece of material and so saving the need for more stitching at a later date, when the hole has become larger, Clearly, the first users of this expression were referring to saving nine stitches.there were several hundred examples of procrastination in my home (none of which made a good photo). &, oddly, the hole was already in the jeans (the most expensive pair i have ever purchased) i was sucked in so easily by my husband saying 'hmm, those are sexy" (or was it mmm).

What did we do before the Internet?
every time i even think the word 'internet' i think about that guy @ that internet cafe in manzanita who remarked to marck about how that internet sure is something (i wish i could remember the line)...
LOL! I had almost forgotten about that guy!
I love that saying ... it's sort of like penny wise pound foolish. Or something else that grandmother's say. But it's quaint. And quite unlike sexy jeans. So nice juxtaposition there, I guess. ;-)
