And Speaking Of Pedestrian….
So, here’s the thing…
I take three pairs of shoes to the cobbler and ask him to:
polish the first pair
polish the second pair
clean and repair the achiles heel on the third pair
One week later and:
the first pair is polished
the second pair is not
the third pair hasn’t even been touched because he forgot what I wanted done
Another week goes by and:
the second pair is polished, but in the wrong color, and the polish is still on the shoes
the suede on the remaining pair has barely been brushed and the wrong repair was performed on the shoe
So, tell me ladies…
Why does it irk me so that the bastard, rather than just repairing the achiles hill as requested, removed the lining which read “Stuart Weitzman” as well?
This is a bit of self-discovery that I could have lived without.

You know a cobbler? Hell, we hunt cobblers here. They are fair game. Except for Geppetto. Because, you know, he made Pinocchio.

so is this like some kind of cryptic ‘in’ joke or did I miss something here? Achilles heel isn’t part of a shoe that I’m aware of and what’s the label thing about?
This is all very confusing. Maybe it’s because there are no cobblers here either.

You ain’t from the Phillipines are you? How damned many pairs of shoes do you have?

Go barefoot. As an aside, this is the most put together your home page has ever looked. I hope this guy doesn’t do your html also.
