The thing about cloaks...

So I've been reading The Name of the Wind by Patick Rothfuss and last night I read this paragraph about how awesome cloaks are.  I makes me want to make another one...

     "Now let me say this: when you're traveling, a good cloak is worth more than all your possessions put together.  If you've nowhere to sleep, it can be your bed and blanket.  It will keep the rain off your back and the sun from your eyes.  You can conceal all manner of interesting weaponry beneath it if you are clever, and a smaller assortment if you are not.
     "But beyond all that, two facts remain to recommending a cloak.  First, very little is as striking as a well-worn cloak, billowing lightly about you in the breeze.  And second, the best cloaks have innumerable little pockets that I have an irrational and overpowering attraction towards."

  1. haha! I love it! What could you next cloak be about? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...I like how you can conceal "all manner of interesting weaponry" What about a cloak that has pockets with all kinds of interesting things that you've collected along your walks? along life?

  2. Will you PLEASE make a sugar cloak?!? You could sew together old paper sugar packages and make a paper sugar coat. Then a video of you going around saying back handed compliments to people, then make a montage video of that... not for you? oh well i thought i would try. :-P
