I forgot how to tie my shoes.
« on: February 14, 2009, 02:50:33 PM »
I mean I forgot how to tie the usual shoe-tying knot.  I've been square-knotting my logger boots for years now, and since I don't run anymore, that's all I wear. 

I was just tying a ribbon around a Valentime* gift, and I had to look up that knot on the intertubes. 


*Yes, it's pronounced Valentime.   =)

Options:

1. Buy pre-formed bows at store.

2. Duct tape.

Just toss it at 'em from a distance, and try to get out of the danger zone...

No worries.  I got her some materials to help her finish her trilogy of children's books, and get them published.  She liked 'em.  Now, let's all keep our fingers crossed!   =)

Get velcro shoes, don't forget your helmet, and try not to lick the windows on the nice man's bus.  =D

At least it is really your fault this time.

There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Sorry it took so long to reply, but MTP, you need this....and due to copyright issues, the quality is only fair.
