    Your Quote;BTW, the latest comments of our discussions seems to be gone. For me ok.Has maybe the big magician to do something with it ? I did not insult anybody, I just disagreed. Never mind. Shawn said it: Live is good. Quote;.........

    The Big Magician has taught me alot about life, my Daddy in the Sky taught me long ago to " Speak the truth and the truth will set you free".
    Freedom of speech is priceless, we may not agree but you have the right to say it.

    Uniform of the day in my world is a tee, swim trunks and flip flops - tennis shoes if going downtown due to walking in flip flops over a few hundred meters hurts my feet.
    The dress code here is in my top 3 things I like about the PI.

    I wear Islander (definitely my favourite type) flip-flops mostly and on the rare occasions I use socks and shoes I find my feet itch so badly I end up scratching them until the blood runs!!! Even using cotton socks does not help a lot.

    I went to the Luce theatre at Silliman University some years ago and was refused entry because I was wearing those flip-flops - they have such HIGH standards here (lol). Fortunately I had some beach shoes (very thin material and not what I would want to wear in public) in the car and changed into them - I was accepted! I can only guess at the fact they thought the skin of my feet was too sexy ("I'm too sexy for my car; Too sexy for my car; Too sexy by far;
    And I'm too sexy for my hat; Too sexy for my hat; What do you think about that?").

    If there is ever a next time (the cultural desert here blows hot) I will try wearing paper bags and see what happens.

    I have never owned or worn Flip-Flops. The oldest surviving flip-flop is currently on display in the British Museum and dates from around 1,500 BC. Over time, the materials used to make flip-flops has changed from papyrus, palm leaves and straw to plastic and rubber. I wear what is known as Shoes! Other than my Shoes, about anything else goes due mainly to the fact no-ones notices anyways!
