I never learned how to ride a bike, and as for wearing a loincloth like Ghandi, it would excite the local female populace too much. Besides, I would probably turn blue at 50 degrees clothed in very little more than a smile. But everything else in this post I can say a hearty "Amen" to....
Hehe, I'm not sure what they'd say if I rode my bike 2 hours and showed up in a loin cloth and all my teeth rotting away, then broke out the broth and wheat and nuked it for lunch. I already get hassled a bit with my dockers bought from DI, and my shirts with duct tape where a button fell off. I do wish they would turn down the damn A/C a bit here in the summer though! LOL:)
Putz, Your post reminds me of something someone said in F & T meeting Sunday. She was talking about all the things we could and should be doing that would add blessings to our lives instead of the many things we get involved in that don't. For instance, she asked what kind of blessing we got from watching t.v. as opposed to what we got from spending quality time with a friend or loved one or child? No brainer, huh? I have NEVER received any blessings from watching television unless it was General Conference.
I'm laughing a whole lot at your comment, Mr. Brague. Mr. Putz, much of what you say sound Henry David Thoreau -ish. You can't go wrong with living simply. Your last line is interesting to me..."When we fear men we are the most vain..."
