tiger shark nostalgia
the black thing on the left is my current wallet. I bought it for $5 from limited express for men more than twenty years ago in dallas. I used my employee discount on top of a severely discounted price. the exterior is made from tiger shark hide, that stuff is tough. the inside cow leather has failed to control the ever increasing amount of plastic, paper and cardboard I store in there.
the black thing on the right is also a tiger shark hide and was purchased by a friend using the his employee discount 20+ years ago. he quit using his in the late 80's and just donated it to me when he saw I was still using mine in a state of semi-failure.
I've removed more than twenty years of misc memorabilia from the old wallet. the collection included laundry tickets from tulum mexico, a wad of money from the czech republic along with the address for the room I've twice rented in prauge (praha), the classified ad for the space I rented when I lived in germantown philadelphia, a ticket to a "show" at the moulin rouge in amsterdam, a small pearl I found in an oyster I was eating, an old address for a friend who had washed the dishes at the hooters I worked in ( he now lives in santa barbara and runs a really cool gearhead web site)
maybe I will fill one with nostalgia and the other with driver's lic and atm cards, balance out the spine and all.
had some brazilian food at rio's and this happy guy hand shook our capirihanas
it was free week down on red river so we took the daughter to an all ages show at the mohawk.
