You are Killing me, Jeff. . .in a good, drooling, can't think sort of way!
Do you think I could order a couple of those shipped overnight? Maybe more than a couple?

Here's our current leading contender for the Stoopid Shoes contest. We spotted these at Magic Kingdom. Ollie, I don't call it judging. I call it "Taking Note of an Individual's Interesting Personal Choice".... laugh

Thoughts?

So how was Cirque, we are dying to find out if you liked it or if you have a kink in your neck. waiting

We loved it! We were in the row right before the center area where the actors walk around at thet beginning. Which is also prime target area for the clowns!! We lucked out and they went a few rows over and did their playful thing with some lady. It was funny, but Joe told me I would be sleeping alone and in the parking lot if they came over to him. Haha.

Joe said when we were leaving that it was so good, he felt like we underpaid for the performance. I would agree.

Jeff, I think you have a winner with that pair lol. They are going to be really hard to beat. They are really stoopid shoes. Even more so that she is wearing them with shorts. I can ALMOST understand wearing the heels with a dress but why any one would wear them with shorts to a place in which you know you are going to be walking all day long is beyond me.

Scrappy and JeffC, while I agree with the level of stoopid-ness of the shoes, I am not sure I agree that the person wearing the stoopid shoes is a she.

We are talking about the gold Adidas with the black ankle socks near the post, right?

Winner!!

Those look like killers on a normal day, but walking at WDW? Yep, those go in the gold star winner category!

Nicely Done!

LOL...I was going to say it was Casey's as well. And so great to see a pic of Joe....And yeah those shoes are pretty bad...I never understand why A. Some girls think that looks good....And B. Why some girls always have to wear heels, even for something that calls for tennis shoes.

But you know it would be worth it.....And it wouldn't be so bad to sleep in the parking lot...it is Disney after all...it's probably magical.

Ha! I would be pretty angry too if I was posted by my other with ears on! Got to be careful if the other half is a Disney fanatic.

Glad you are both having a great time.

Hey, Mr. Jeff, thanks for all the great updates. Did you happen to see if Mulch Sweat 'n Shears is still appearing at HS?

You see, I have a fever and the doctor said the only cure is more cowbell.
