I like a guy with sandals.
Jesus wore them.
Buddha too.
I bet Mahatma did as well.
All the good guys wore sandals.
Allan Ginsberg did when he delivered ‘Howl’
on that memorable day
and The Archies when they sang ‘Sugar Sugar’ on the cartoon channel.
They’re not exactly power dressing
but you can trust a man who wears sandals.
or Woman.
My yoga teacher wore sandals.
She taught me the value of non attachment
though we were both attached to our sandals.
Socrates too.
He died in his sandals like cowboys with their boots on.
And so it goes.
I don’t know about celebs.
I think Clint Eastwood did in ‘A Few Dollars More’.
and Justin Bieber in his clip ‘Love Yourself’
Our Prime Minister wears sandals when he goes to the beach.
There’s a picture of Jesus walking on water in his sandals.
I tried it.
It doesn’t work
but I still wear my sandals.
😁 I love my sandals but it’s still too chilly here to entertain them. But soon… hope you are keeping well, virtual hugs x J

Better jump down a manhole,
light yourself a candle
Don’t wear sandals,
try to avoid the scandals
Don’t want to be a bum,
you better chew gum
The pump don’t work ’cause
the vandals took the handles

I like that one, David. What song does it come from? There’s actually a photo of Dylan wearing not sandals but thongs/flip flops from 1968 🙂

No problem, Neil. It’s a clever connection. I guess it’s not sandal wearing weather in the States 🙂

In New Zealand, they don’t wear thongs on their feet,
the thong is for a place, far more discreet.
The Kiwis name their foot thongs jandals
an abbreviation of Japanese sandals!
