Now they seem to crumble after a snap or two on a single sock.<\/p>\n<p>Concurrently i noticed a sign on a Kits bar\/restaurant today that stated &#8220;LOCAL since &#8217;09&#8221;, I thought this indicative of the present state of things given that 2009 is only 3 years ago. I am used to seeing businesses in other places proclaiming on their signs they&#8217;ve been in biz since 1921, 1940, 1959. The shoe repair man around the corner Bob has been in business for I think it might be 50 years. I wonder if proclaiming being local for 3 years will eventually become the mark of vintage.<\/p>\n<p>In weather news, the sun was ever so bright today. I was surprised to see people out sunbathing, there was light, but not necessarily heat. Goose pimple city ! I concluded the sunbathers must be in the menopause.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I found myself contemplating the declining quality of clothes pegs I was trying to recall their quality in the 1970&#8217;s and 1980&#8217;s and whether they were sturdier?
