WASTE NOT - WASTE NOT. Do not waste the Bounty of the Earth.The long term viability of the planet is essential to human and animal and plant life here on Earth. Just because there is an abundance of some raw materials and air and water can be used or destroyed easily does not mean that these resources do not have to be saved for future need. Do not waste lives and experience and time that could be well spent.
I BOUGHT THESE SHIRTS 33 YEARS AGO. MY AUNT ANNETTE GAVE ME $1000 TO BUY CLOTHES. MY HOUSE WAS BURNED DOWN IN 1980 AND I STILL HAD NO CLOTHES, ONE PAIR OF SHOES AND I ALWAYS DROVE $500 TO $900 CARS. I HAD MY HOUSE WHICH MY HORRIBLE SIBLING FAMILY AND MY WIFE HAD PUT ME INTO DEBT OVER SO I DID NOT REALLY OWN IT.
THE UPPER SHIRT WAS USED 500 TIMES, WASHED OVER AND OVER, AND THE LOWER SHIRT ONLY A FEW DOZEN TIMES.
BOTH SHIRTS ARE STILL PERFECTLY SERVICEABLE ALTHOUGH THERE ARE HOLES IN THE HEAVILY USED ONE FROM SNAGGING IT WHILE I WORKED.
I HAVE THE HEAVILY USED ONE ON NOW. I HAVE A NUMBER OF SIMILAR SHIRTS MY SONS WERE DISCARDING. ONLY A FEW OF THEM FEEL AS NICE AS THE COTTON SHIRTS FROM MANY YEARS AGO. THIS SAVES MONEY. IT IS ALSO A VERY GOOD ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY AS NONE OF MY OLD, STILL IN USE, SHIRTS HAVE ENDED UP IN A LANDFILL.
