When we were born god gave us a gift, it was a shirt, more specifically it was the sweater of innocence. Whenever we put it on we felt warm, comfortable, and truly happy. But then one day we outgrew our shirt, it no longer fit. So we exchanged it for a voucher that gave us one free cup of decaffeinated life. Well I said screw that and went to metaphor mart to buy another sweater, but none of them were in my size. It was at that point that I decided I would use magic to knit myself a new sweater and at the same time try to knit sweaters for every person I meet, in an effort to make them feel as warm as we all once had.

Your metaphors are very deep and all, but I'm sorry to say they're over my head sometimes. I'm trying to find some spiffy clothes that look magical, though.

It seems to me that it is inevitable that we should outgrow our sweaters of innocence. I applaude you for your attempts to clothe those in need. Remember however, that a good many people are plenty warm in their jackets of ignorance, and may become offended at the suggestion of a wardrobe change. Allthough I must admit a good can warm you quite nicely sometimes

I consider myself a relatively intelligent man, but...
What the heck are you talking about? It is at times such as this I feel compelled to exclaim, "Emperor Donnie has no clothes!"

Nice metaphor Donnie, just be careful not to leave any pins in the sweaters.

Donnie, i take it you like Paul Harris?? Anyway I liked your metaphor, but br carful what you sort of sweaters you knit people. I have found people I work with sitting with spoon's in their hands staring at them. Actually come to think of it I found that was amusing, should have video taped it.

Like a New York hipster once said to me...
"Always dress like you are going somewhere better afterwards." Those sound words of advice were given to me by a man who certainly doesn't take them. |

You either were raised by Hippies or you are one. You are either a baby boomer or you were raised by one.
