    Try not to flame it too much.

    It was a random-sleep deprived contribution =)

    I stumbled across it and decided I was in a sharing mood, so why not right?

    The irony is, shoes really are important. hehe

    I found a great sale on western boots this weekend...

    Somewhere out there in Speedy's wake are two dead ostriches, one buffalo, and a cow!

    Good thing I didn't hit them all with my car!!!!!

    "and the Limey eyes, well they were eyeing the prize,
    some people call "manly footwear"......

    Despite the fact that I live in Appalachia, I make it a point to wear shoes to work most every day.

    I wonder if it really took two Ostriches to make your pair of boots ;oP

    Where in Appalachia? I used to live in Charlotte as a child, and still have family in the Lexington and Maiden areas (which arent really Appalachia).

    I also have a condo at Beech Mountain.

    I really enjoyed that story - Is it autobiographical?

    I am sure there is some autobiographical element in there. Shoes are something I look at when I meet people, I find even among the cheapest of the wealthy folks I know, they tend to spring for good shoes.

    Thanks for the good comments. Maybe now WriterGuy will let me write for TDM.
