sigh. my penultimate day in civilisation.

"The land of Elbonia is located somewhere in the middle east and is covered in waist-deep mud. This mud is the country's sole export, and even then the citizens manufacture more mud out of bottled water and potting soil."

elbonia == brunei!
see, that's the real reason brunei is so rich - not the oil, but rather they're living it up off the royalties from the dilbert strip.

i'm bringing 20 pairs of socks - one for every day. lest you think i'm taking things a little too far, let me tell you that this is actually recommended, so you don't get footrot from the constant wet ( not damp, wet ). luckily, i get them on credit from the saf.

see what blatant wastage the saf encourages - they're a huge part of why sock trees worldwide are being harvested at an unsustainable rate.
