one of the coolest things in the world is reaching into your pocket and realizing that you or somebody else who was wearing whatever you’re wearing left something in the pocket. it’s like having a mini time capsule.

just last night i put on some pants that i haven’t worn in a while. in the pocket, i find, washed and worn, my old report card from last year. it made me remember how good it felt to get the report card. oh man oh man. i remember how great it felt to graduate high school.

“free at last! thank god all mighty, i’m free at last”. a great man said that once. i couldn’t phrase him better.

i remember a few times in the past when i’ve found things in my pockets as well. the best is when you find something in your winter coat. those are awesome because sometimes it’s shit from a year or sometimes even two years [since you were too lazy to throw it out last year]. it makes for nice memories and a really good conversation starter, i think.

maybe I should market a new product. it’ll be like sandwich baggies… only on the box it’ll be called “POCKET MEMORIES!” — and then under that “poketo memorisu” in Katakana (cuz if it’s japanese, people won’t question its validity). the main focus of the advertisment would be that you could have a “mini time capsule!” in your pocket, so that every time you wear your favourite jeans or whatever, you’d bust out with shit from every time before that you wore those jeans. whoa! i’m a genius.

or, we could just stick shit into ziplock bags. but it wouldn’t be as fun!! ziplock bags weren’t MADE for pocket memories! pocket memories bags are!

– even if they are 5 times more expensive.

oh well, since they’ll come in various different colours and designs, it’ll all be worth it. YEPYEP.
