The Success Symbol

Sorry the photojournalist in me couldn't resist posting this one. This fellow was the only shopkeeper at this leathergoods outlet store just outside of Wu Zhen. I considered pilfering some vests to teach him a lesson (quite possibly *helping* him out in the long run) but that wouldn't be very Christian of me, no? Besides, those pleather vests were cheap in every sense of the word. And I mean CHEAP.
