Wrong kind of boots

Dear Editor,

Yes, Ben Nelson's boots are made for "working". I think the picture in the ad is of the wrong pair of boots, though. The appropriate ones would be thigh-high, high-heeled, and severely scuffed at the toes and knees.

Either that, or tied together by the laces and thrown over a high tree branch or overhead line. That's what "short-timers" in the Army used to do when THEIR term of service was coming to an end...
