Happy Father's Day!

I don't know if you know this, but my dad, like most dads, is really into the latest fashions.  On a recent visit he was wearing a new shirt that he got that he was VERY happy with.  It is a neutral green color (goes with ALL his shorts),  is semi-waterproof (so you can wipe off spills before they stain) and has pockets hidden all over it.  AND it has a little loop for him to hang his glasses.  He had been shopping that day so I thought he just bought it.  I asked him where he got it and he said, "Amazon," so this is something he computer shopped for.  I then got to thinking, "What does one type into the search bar when looking for a shirt like that?" and then I imagined all the ways that he had to refine his search parameters to get just what he wanted.  Like this:

"shirts"
"men's shirts"
"men's button down shirts"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves, goes with everything"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves, goes with everything, stain proof"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves, goes with everything, stain proof,  pockets"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves, goes with everything, stain proof, LOTS of pockets"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves, goes with everything, stain proof, 15 pocket minimum"
"men's button down shirts, short sleeves, goes with everything, stain proof, 15 pocket minimum, glasses loop"

and VIOLA!  The perfect shirt!


(You can't tell from the picture, but this shirt has 20,000 pockets.)  

Happy Father's Day Dad!  I love you!
