The Mishnah in Megilah says that one who wears shorts may not Daven for the Amud (well, one P’shat in the Mishnah that seems to be brought down L’halacha says that, at least).
I guess then that someone should tell the people in the shul where I daven that I am no longer eligible to daven for the Amud since I, on occasion, wear shorts. True, the last time I wore them outside was about five years ago (when in St. Thomas), but there’s nothing saying that I wouldn’t do so again in [what I consider to be] an appropriate situation/place.
Furthermore, I wear short pajamas to bed every night, so certainly I’m no longer eligible to daven for the Amud.
