Stupid, bozo, poopy, dumb-dumb, jerk-wad, asshat pseudo-injury (Read 904 times)

...YakTrax. Too bad they won't keep my feet as warm and dry, though. That was one feature of those specialized shoes that I really was enjoying--hot feet even with windchills below 0. k

today, i ran 8 miles with goretex sock i got from cabella's for fishing. that could be an idea. a little snug in the shoe, but not bad: just laced looser. wore a liner sock, too. nice and dry on a snow covered trail. sealskins (not sure exactly spelled that way) are also waterproof.

{{{Zoom-Zoom}}} I hope your pseudo injury heels/heals up fast!

smartwools ... mmmmm ... best sock ever? been wearing them a good decade. all activities. had a few bum pairs, but most seem to wear like iron.

I only discovered them maybe 18 months ago, but I am a convert/addict!

HTFU Zoomy's heel!

zoom-zoom, So, what was the specialized Winter shoe that did you in?

NB 921. Nice shoe, but not a good fit for my foot...

I *heart* puns!

These will help your heal. A three-legged dog walks into a saloon in the Old West. He slides up to the bar and announces…I’m looking for the man who shot my paw. A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel and were standing in the lobby discussing their recent tournament victories. After about an hour, the manager came out of the office and asked them to disperse. "But why?" they asked, as they moved off. "Because I can’t stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer.” And the grand finale: The symphony orchestra was performing Beethoven's Ninth. In the piece, there's a long passage, about 20 minutes, during which the bass violinists have nothing to do. Rather than sit around that whole time looking stupid, some bassists decided to sneak offstage and go to the tavern next door for a quick one. After slamming several beers in quick succession, one of them looked at his watch and said, "Hey! We need to get back!" "No need to panic," said a fellow bassist. "I thought we might need some extra time, so I tied the last few pages of the conductor's score together with string. It will take him a few minutes to get it untangled." A few moments later they staggered back to the concert hall and took their places in the orchestra. About this time, a member of the audience noticed the conductor seemed a bit edgy and said as much to her companion. "Well, of course," said her companion. "Don't you see? "It's the bottom of the Ninth, the score is tied, and the bassists are loaded."

Awesome!

Ahhh...so you also have wide feet. I may have to look into a pair if TNF shoes next year, then. We have a few places that carry them, so I should be able to at least try them on. k
