Things that work for me...

I'm one of those guys that finds something that works .... and then I just keep it... forever...take these mittens - I've had them since I was in college - yeah I duck hunted w/ 'em when I was 22 - that's 25 years ago. They've been w/ me from coast to coast & as far north as Jasper, Alberta Canada. When I put a pair of light cotton gloves inside them like I have here my hands have never gotten cold... they work & I know they work. I've used them for so long I've worn out the thumbs... did I throw them away & buy another pair for $14.99? Hell No! I wrapped some duct tape around the frayed thumb matl until I can get 'em stitched up ... they'll be on my hands another 25 years... same thing w/ wives - I've had the same one for 10 years - I can count on her - yeah she may be a little frayed around the edges but ain't nothing can't be fixed w/ a little duct tape & TLC. I love you & miss
you Mallie & look forward to seeing you in Santa Fe... I wanna check out that tattooed Velcro!
