One question I've always thought about is how do you enforce a law against something that isn't illegal in the first place? The practice of smoking isn't illegal. The sale of tobacco isn't illegal. And, it appears to me these laws are arbitrary in the first place. So, why hasn't anyone bothered to take these laws to the U.S. Supreme Court to determine if they are actually enforceable? Quite frankly, I really don't understand how any government operating under the provisions of the United State's Constitution can dictate what anyone can and can't do in their own homes or businesses.

I was wrong in my last post with referencing the SexyShoes style number. It's "7114." Selling in sizes up to sice 15. Three heel heights: 4 1/2 ", 5 1/4" and 6" Should really check website for prices and actual details if you're interested.

Forgive me, Dr1819, but I totally disagree with you. I believe you're intillectually "over thinking" this entire subject. I, too, am saddened to learn of your plight. However, there must be a lot more to the situation than that of you, or your wife refusing to accept "no" for an answer. Some cases of "no" can be negotiated (would you like onions in your potato salad? No.) And some shouldn't ever be brought up again once asked and refused. ( Would you allow me to engage in some deviant sexual behavior? No!) And, if an attempt to negotiate the "no" that caused alarm was repeated, then the issue becomes powerful stimulation for total disintegration of any relationship that might have been built on trust.

I think you're telling the world a lot more than they really want to know.

"Great pics" are in the eye of the beholder!

those look like the Style # 7116 sold by Sexy Shoes.....look at: http://www.sexyshoes.com

For anyone using a wooden shoe stretcher, please keep it in place for at least 24 hours -- preferably a week -- to get the maximum effect.

That does it! I'm putting my foot down here and now, before I end up in a sling from laughing so hard. ROFL Then I'm going to bed to boot - er to sleep. I'll see shoes later.

Gosh! Imagin laughing so hard you wound up with sling backs.

I do not wear heels to get reactions. I wear them because I like the way they feel on my feet.

Same here.

First of all, I'm not a smoker so it doesn't matter to me what, where or when politicans declair smoking illegal. However, I've often wondered why, if smoking is so harmful to a person's health, the US Government -FDA- hasn't declared tobacco an illegal substance like cocaine? Perhaps it has something to do with the huge number of dollars ($) local, state and federal governments collect in taxes each year from selling tobacco?

My date sugested that perhaps I should go by myself to the New Year's singles dance, "so I could show off the new boots, and holiday manicure."

When I go out with her, she likes to suggest I wear "manly flat shoes"

Sounds to me like she really doesn't approve -- and, indicates there might be a problem somewhere down the road.

why did you even have to ask her what she thought of your boots?

That's funny!

Since it was in the "for eveybody" thread, I took it to mean "everybody."

To date, the most i've paid for a pair of high heels for myself is $300.00. Lately, however, I've been considering buying a pair of Christian Louboutin "Clichy" pumps (I really like the light blue). The thing that stops me is the price. No matter how much I like them (I certainly can afford them) I just can't get over the thinking that the price ($900 to $1200) is way to much for a man to pay for a pair of high heels for himself.

Impossible! Number 19????? when you should be Number 1..... Just goes to show you that some people do not have any taste.

Just goes to show that deep down we are not all that different. We all have basic human desires -- a little bit of dignity, some love and respect, our basic needs (shelter, food, etc.) and sometimes something interesting to spice up our lives.

That's precisely what I've found in my travels around the world.

I second what jmc says. I, too, have purchased more than one pair of shoes/boots from BobandAngie and it's been my experience that product and service has always been first class. There's the old saying "buyer beware." That said, I agree with Angie that people don't take the time to digest descriptions posted in ebay offerings. Consequently, some buyers aren't happy. And that, my friends, isn't the fault of the seller. Buyers do have choices, you know. In hnb71's case, he could always resell them on ebay himself and recope his mistake. Otherwise he should quit "nitpicking," scratch his mad place and get over it.

your point being while the shoes themselves (assembled finished product) may be man made, the material they are made from are "natural."? Works for me!

you forgot to mention Logan's Road House

A couple of years ago, this film was featured late at night (after 11 p.m.) two or three night a week, for three or four months straight on a local cable TV channel. And, in the same timeframe, on the nights that it wasn't shown, the channel broadcast "The Rue Paul" Show. I managed to watch both programs often.

Like the style but don't really like the color. (But then again, if you're planning to wear them with shorts, what difference does color make?)

and then, there are those members that post worthless replies. Replies that don't really add anything to the discussion....repiles that just build up their posting numbers. (wastes a lot of time when trying to keep up with threads).

it's to bad the picture isn't there. If it were, we'd understand what you are talking about.....

The nice way Jim is dressed, the boots look natural. Like they belong with the outfit. Or, he wouldn't look completely dressed without them.
