LETTERS: MIRRORS ARE FAULTY

To the editor:

I wish someone could tell me why they don't make mirrors like they used to. I can remember once when mirrors were honest. When I looked at that mirror, it reflected my handsome, slim body, along with my smooth, soft skin, my dark brown hair, the color of my eyes and my teeth. Have they changed the type of glass or the process for making mirrors? I wonder.

These new mirrors, right at about my waistline, seem to be warped or something. Actually, the entire mirror seems defective. It makes my skin look wrinkled. And my dark brown hair? Can you believe that mirror has given it shades of gray? Mirrors are not as clear as they used to be either. The image has become so faint on these new mirror I can hardly see my eyes, much less detect the color of them. And my teeth? It seems they don't appear at all any more for some reason.

If you know where I can get a mirror that will reflect my body as it once did 30 years ago, please get in touch with me.
