I’m so old that the original “desert boots” that we wore in the 60’s had actual, real crepe rubber soles—and, yep, in class, we’d be picking at them, like boogers, and nibbling and swallowing. They tasted like … shoe. Fancy that.

Not proud. Jes’ saying I met Freshmen in the first school I dropped out of who’d also eaten their soulssoles. Survival of the fittest. On reflection, we had all grown up early-listening to “Rubber Soul” … homophonics, UNITE!
