Ballet flat shoes aren't really cute...
but platform shoes are...
I know, the chicks reading this may be seething b/c they have "perfectly cute" ballet flats in their closets or on their feet; and the dudes reading this are going to be indifferent, or maybe care quite deeply, which is all good...
Anyway, those ballet flat shoes are everywhere now -very trendy- but I am a platform shoe type of girl! It's getting more and more difficult to find a killer platform shoe or at least a snappy chunky heel! These ballet flats are taking over the shoe universe (shoeniverse?)
Fact: Platform shoes just make you look industrially cool.
Halcyon, hardcore modifier that he is, made a video about resurrecting a pair of platforms shoes which died from overexertion due to his mad dance skills.. The platform sole/soul lived, but the shoe's body was wasted. In his vid, he rips off the shoe from its platform and drills another pair of shoes onto the platform . It freakin' worked, too.
I may have to take up his modification bait :-)

It is not so remarkable that our greatest joy should come when we are motivated by concern for others. We find that not only do altruistic actions bring about happiness but they also lessen our experience of suffering...the sufferings which undermine our internal peace -- anxiety, doubt, disappointment.
Since our every action has a universal dimension, a potential impact on others' happiness, ethics are necessary as a means to ensure that we do not harm others. Genuine happiness consists in those spiritual qualities of love, compassion, patience, tolerance and forgiveness and so on. For it is these which provide both for our happiness and others' happiness. --Ethics for a New Millennium, by the 14th Dalai

You haven't really lived until you've fallen off your own shoes...hehe...
You need to get a pair of John Fluevogs. Those things are sky-high and cooler than anything else on the planet. He has a website. Google him.

OMG!!! Those John Fluevogs are crazy adorable...I wanna check out their fall collection for work -- oh, no pun intended *giggle*
By the way, Homie -- I think Bill Maher starts back up again this month -- woot!
Yeah, he's back either the week we start to school or the week before.
I saw those shoes at Atomic City in Austin and just LOVED them... I knew you would appreciate them as well.
Why the frick does Austin possess everything everything cool?!? Blimey...I wanna live there!!!
We have some really good friends (fellow record collectors) that live there and we try to see them several times a year... and then when we come back up here we grieve for Austin... the food, the shops, the laid-back people... Dallas is so depressing.
Sigh.
