Interesting stuff Shooey. There's a lot of work involved in shrinking these shoes plus, I think I heard him say at one point that periodically you have to repeat the process as the shoes stretch out to their former shape. Still, keeps him out of mischief. Thank goodness for these characters who share their knowledge.

I think people find it freshing that good people want to be themselves and own their own personality. So many people are too afraid to do that these days, so he shows the world it is o.k to do that without consequences. I am the same way and have always done my own thing and thought my own thoughts, because how can a man be anything that he is not, but so many people today want to fit in with the herd, they don't act like individuals and l find that really sad. It must be so exhausting not to be yourself.

When l was a kid l always wore dress shoes. All the other kids wore sneakers/runners, but l never wanted to do that. People always accepted me because I was happy to be myself. I remember as a kid going to a family Christmas dinner and being looked at oddly by my auntie and uncle while they were checking out my stitched burgundy captoe oxfords, l knew what they were thinking but l was never going to compromise to make conformists happy. Their kids played in sneakers while l played in my shoos.

He reminds me of a young gun at work. Mid 20s, drives a jag, collects cigars and likes to dress in sharp clothes. He also has a really long thin Mohawk haircut, listens to late 70s/early 80s punk only eats lasagne. I kid not, eats it for lunch and dinner, every day. Kinda weird but very cool and likable.

This guy is bonkers.
