Oh, sure we have other fertile ground to celebrate with our history anniversary feature, but we have a tasty lunch planned, and we can't do full justice to the Battle of Hamburger Hill in 5 minutes, so at least this also gives a chance to play some ZZ Top. It now seems so simple in concept-tough fabric with reinforced rivets to make them extra durable, like the denim overalls that had been battle tested. And in 1873 they were gold, baby-the patent was granted on this date during that year. Given the harsh, expanding frontier, and railroad/mineral extraction/oil contracts, the workers needed clothes that wouldn't need to be replaced every day. The white cotton T-shirt, leather jacket and strategically worn blue jeans is a look that will never go out of style.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levi_Strauss_%26_Co.
