Lasting Legacy

Counsel For The Defence

This is the Legacy badge I bought today. Since most of my readers are from overseas, I'd like to explain that Legacy is an Australian organisation, founded in 1923, that cares for the widows, children and dependants of defence forces personnel.

This afternoon, in the atrium of our office building, there were two Army officers selling the badges of various denominations and I was proud to pin this to my jumper. Why the jumper and not a suit? Because it's casual Friday, when I swap my suit for jeans and a T-shirt. When I was growing up in India, we called them either pullovers or sweaters, but jumpers is the preferred description here in Melbourne.

Denim Wrangle

Da Kneebone's Connected To Da Rip Bone

Gotta hate it when your favourite jeans show a rip in the knee. The more faded they are, the more they've been lived in and, therefore, the more comfortable they are. Because I wear a suit during the week, I enjoy getting into Levi's on weekends and on Casual Fridays at work. Now the big question - in your opinion, is it cool to wear jeans that are ripped at the knee?
