You win the internet today. :) But my stereotype has been destroyed,
everyone knows that programmers are skinny and live on Jolt and coffee.

I don't get the connection, so I googled it, which resulted in some light

I suppose math and physics may apply here but a bolt of cloth is up to 100 yards of fabric wrapped around a cardboard core. Google "bolt of cloth" for an image.

If Mike needs 200 yards of fabric for his tee shirt then I suspect he also needs custom-made door frames and chairs. Frankly, I don't believe it.
