[pct-l] the great campshoe debate

[Jim Keener]

I got a ride from Mojave to Tehachapi and bought a pair of flip-flops  
at Wal Mart. First and only time to visit a WM. They costed me the  
grand sum of $1.83. That was in 2004. I still wear them in the garden.  
I especially liked having them at afternoon break time and other times  
I wanted to air my feet.

This is just my experience.
