Entry #87
- Listening to:
- Rachmaninoff, Vespers.
I saw a delivery van in the street the other day. Across the top of
its side were written the words
Put yourself in my shoes.
Looking closer, I saw that this van belonged to a shoe manufacturer
called something like
Mr. England Shoes. I smiled at the
clever use of the phrase, and thinking about it subsequently, decided
that it won, not just because of this cleverness, but because of the way it
made you think of the manufacturer as a individual rather than a
faceless corporation. The
Mr. England helps in this
regard as well I expect.
More comp-sci
humour.
