Kenny Powers said that when a man's on the run he needs to bring one thing along that reminds him of who he really is. There were a few items on my short list. Truth be told the one thing that would probably remind of who I really am the most is the Pontiac. A machine kept running by my very own sweat and blood(y knuckles). Further, of of all my inanimate objects it's the one I've spent the most time with as well. However, size is an issue. Bearing all mitigating factors in mind I ended up choosing this:
Well, not this exactly, but mine is similar with a cheap frame. It's a Beefeater's ad from, I want to say 1998. My domiciles tend to be furnished with eccentric odds and ends. Among my collection of little items is a pair of 1940s mannequin legs and a replica I Dream of Jeannie bottle. There are also a handful of advertisements which struck me for some reason and I bought on ebay and framed. My mentality upon originally purchasing this one was fairly face value. Recently though I've attached a different meaning to it. You've only got so many waking minutes in this world, use them well, don't play it safe. Granted it's not high art and the team of people that created this had one meaning in mind: go out and get wasted, preferably on Beefeaters. If that's not clear enough they didn't do their job very well. For some reason it just evokes more in me.
