end of a Dockers belt

twenty-eight years and a million words

Kokubunji, 2022.06.28

On the weekend our family had a water-balloon fight on our street. We'd done this on the weekend that was the Victoria Day long weekend by chance, so I'll name this the Canada Day water-fight. Anyway, I was wearing my shorts with an ancient belt and the belt didn't take well to getting wet. You see, it's so old that I can't actually place its purchase but I suspect it was in the late '90s, which could make it as old as 25 years. Thank you, Dockers, for a well-made belt!

You have to choose between trusting to the natural stability of gold and the natural stability of the honesty and intelligence of the members of the Government. And, with due respect for these gentlemen, I advise you, as long as the Capitalist system lasts, to vote for gold.
