re: Changing of the Guard… or End of an Era.

Duckster....I feel strangely compelled to play TAPS right now.  In my extended life I have now witnessed yet one more end of an era.  I too agree with with Splint that desiccant should have been added, but possibly a thought of adding an entire bottle of Fabreze too?   After continual use of the garment to mow in, paint, construct thousands of projects, and God knows how many other untoward things it has witnessed/participated in, I am astounded that it was able to be folded at all...I would have thought it would have stood on its own, similar to the flags left on the moon.  Thank you for including us in the last rights of this icon to AUS and Craftisian Wood-working.  
As for the new smock/abortive icon.....some seasoning should be required, I think.  Something along the lines of rolling in Dingo Dung or Kangaroo semen should help.  As such, further consideration for new foot wear is in order.   Some form of Aussy muk-luk, possibly fushia in color, may be considered.  Further, some multi-colored Leo-"tards" might be under consideration, modified to provide "junk-room" of course.
