Getting Caught In The Rain
This morning, while running some errands, I got caught in the rain. It was a real downpour, and I was soaking wet. As I was driving home, my damp clothes reminded me of what I used to say about getting wet.
Back in the sixties, the techniques for reducing wrinkles in laundered clothes were very new and primitive. The first such process was called Wash and Wear. Clothes that were labeled Wash and Wear were better than those that had not been put through that process. Whenever I got wet or it threatened rain, I began saying a little rain did not bother me because I was Wash and Wear.
When Permanent Press came into being in the seventies, I began saying that I did not worry about getting wet because I was Permanent Press. It is a new century, and there is a new and much better process for treating clothes. However, when clothes treated with this process was introduced, I realized I would never be able to call myself Wrinkle Free.
