There's nothing worse than being pushed. In this endeavour you have to work at it at your own pace otherwise you could end up hurting yourself, and none of us want to see this happen! We all want to see you reach your goal without injury.

On a similar vein, does anyone remember Project Starfleet? That had large robots and space vehicles as well as many tiny sphere shaped robots that controlled most of the functions around the control centre.

Sod award cermonies! You either enjoy a film or you don't. Even if you don't like the storyline, the effects may be worth watching.

I don't have a problem while driving in heels, as long as you take it easy and don't do anything that requires ultra fast reactions then there are no problems

barefoot while typing this, but was wearing my 4.25" boots to the doctor's and will be wearing them again when going to the social offices to hand in my sicknote. No sicknote, no money! Most days fluctuate between 3" and 4". Flats get worn for certain jobs like going into the loft or when doing woodwork.

this is true! my wife always walks around in flat shoes, but she does occasionally wear 3" heels for certain reasons. She will even wear my 6.5" heels, as long as she doesn't have to walk anywhere

well, when the warmer weather gets here, I shall parade myself through town in my thigh boots. Coupled with shorts of course!

These are the boots in question

they have a 4.5" heel so should draw some attention !

yep! and it still exists in toothpaste !! :eek: As for dangerous substances, break salt into it's two components. One is a toxic poison and the other explodes on contact with water! A real eye opener!!

A pumpkin wearing 7" heels? Some people really are weirder than me!

I tried dressing an X, but the stuff looked better on me!

better to be known by sight than be a faceless wonder, eh?

just dive in and post more comments as and when you feel and you'll soon go up the heel heights

this is an old one from the archives

to carry even 2 pound of weapon grade plutonium requires about 6 inch of shielding which now takes the weight of container and contents to about 100 pounds. Look for a bloke the size of Geoff Capes! All underground reservoirs have service hatches or ventilation ducts to help relieve pressure, so slipping into one of these wouldn't be too much of a challenge.

!groan! for those who know Firefox on a more personal level, he's full of these types of jokes. don't stop though. you're making some laugh which has to be worth it

wasn't it great when we were younger and eating loads meant no weight gain. now we look at the same foods and feel the weight applying itself. Damn!

you have shorter siblings too! weird world isn't it?

Who needs to detonate a nuclear device? just throw 2 pound of weapon grade plutonium or 1 pound of uranium into a reservoir feeding a city and you'll kill off most of the inhabitants in weeks. The buildings and infrastructure are still intact so you can just march in and take over. Nasty thought when so much knowledge can fall in the wrong hands

the noise produced by my heels are usually sufficient Although I do point them out to the over-curious

Oh, to have some of those problems! I must have missed something in my life as I never knew my real father, had to make do with my sister's dad. He was clearly not comfortable with the idea of me wearing heels, but it's not his life and for 10 years he's not had to live with it. Not that I want to see him again anyway. Glad that your mum's coming to terms with your choices, Terayon. They usually do tend to be more compliant with their children. I understand your reservation about informing your sister of this, but if she's anything like my sister she'll probably be raiding your boot collection in no time. My sister sometimes tries my boots then complains that they are too high for her! She knew about my heels before my parents did. That may have been part of the catalyst to acceptance. Keep going! You've overcome the biggest hurdle, the next is daylight walking which isn't as hard as most think.

what's wrong with pink? I admit that I used to own a pink shirt. Has been worn a few times with no comment, but then it didn't stay in my wardrobe for long. My sister nicked it along with the mint green one. I don't think there are any non-girl colours as all colours have been worn by both genders for many years. It's the colour association with gender that clouds most people's ideas on which colours are best suited to certain applications. While we still view colours as male and female then another stereotype will remain in place. I don't wear pink anymore as it doesn't really suit me, but as a bright contrast to something else I'm wearing then it can be quite effective.

look in the FAQ for info

that heel looks a bit lethal to anyone on the wrong end of it
