Could You Run Faster in these Wing Tip Toe Shoes?
lol I love images like these that break up the conventional wisdom of what shoes are or should be.
If you missed it, this shoe, is not a shoe. Its a foot painted to look like a shoe. 
Its from an article in NewYork Mag titled You Walk Wrong.
This shoe and the stilettos and Adidas sneakers on the subsequent pages are trompel’oeil paintings applied directly to the feet. Nice as they look, you can’t buy them.

There are several other images of feet painted to look like high heel shoes, soccer shoes,
The article is about WALKING not running, but there are some references to running to.
The point is that our feet are designed/evolved to work completely differently when we walk or run.
The correct stride for walking is not the correct stride for running. Here’s some images of walking strides with and without shoes.
There Were Jerry’s Kids and then Bill Clinton’s Kids
I love this one, even though I can’t look at the picture for very long. I received this great viral email tonight.
Some people ask me, “what is a viral email?”
Answer: Its basically something short of spam that gets sent all over the internet via email to everyone and their brother. Often it is sent more than once, every 3-5 years even.
The Setup
Washington DC women were recently polled and asked if they would sleep with Bill Clinton.
Approximately 84% of women responded (with a margin of error of 3%) that
They would not sleep with Bill Clinton “Again”
I wonder why that is?
I was never a fan of the former President. In fact bringing him back to Washington strikes me as something slightly worse and short of using a reverse colon cleanser on our nations capital. I am positive that the area dry cleaners will be happy to see him return, while the NYC dry cleaners will morn the day he leaves Harlem.
I guess its a good thing that the former President does not reside in a Sharia law state or else they would probably stone him before sun down. . .
That said, these new Bin Laden Burkas are getting a little more sexy.
Batter Up, Its Bill Clinton batting .459 against blue material. Burtha Bin Laden winds up for the pitch, he hits, he shoots (sports metaphors get twisted) he scores, she’s a legend and Osama Bin Laden Cuts his own throat.
Virginia Beach Police Touch But Do Not Look at Abercrombie & Fitch Breast Images
Virginia Beach Police pulled one off this week, actually they pulled a pair off as they cited an Abercrombie & Fitch manager with obscenity misdemeanor charges and then removed the offending images of the typical Abercrombie & Fitch scantily clad model pictures.
The police issued the summons Saturday after Abercrombie management did not heed warnings to remove the images from the Lynnhaven Mall store after some customers complained, police spokesman Adam Bernstein said.
One photograph showed three shirtless young men, with one man’s upper buttocks showing. The other image was of a woman whose breast was mostly exposed, authorities said.
City code makes it a crime to display “obscene materials in a business that is open to juveniles,” Bernstein said.
The picture above is the only photo left on the Abercrombie & Fitch website that remotely shows a portion of a female breasticle. However the image of the male youths is still proudly presented on the company website.
Female Clerks Still Engaging Customers to Take a Hands on Approach
Maybe more telling than the image that the company left up on their site (when they apparently took down the almost nipple bearing image of a young lady) is the tank tops that female clerks are still sporting at A & F in Virginia Beach. Police didn’t have any problem with these!
Maybe in real life these babies are not offensive. Possibly Virginia Beach takes offense when the images are artistically rendered in Black and White.
What do you think, are these more obscene without color?
Hey, maybe its just me, but I don’t see anything wrong at all. Maybe the Virginia police just wanted to get the poster of the boys back to the jail house to keep the inmates happy this weekend and avoid paying out more life insurance claims on bailiffs and deputies since the big screen for the Super Bowl was Busted.
Now, personally, I do not like the state of Virginia. I have quite a few friends that live there and I do not think its the people. But I do believe that the police force in Virginia has a disproportionate percentage of power mongering fools. Now, it would appear that they are disproportionately prudish as well.
I’d use stronger language, but this blog has grown into my nice blog lately. My not so nice blog is elsewhere.
