It has upset me that johnieheel has returned to square one.

Ruth Heel,

Am I slow tonight? Can you please explain what you mean by this?

The only thing that would be sweeter would be if they put up a sign saying they carry up to size 14! Heck, I'd probably fall over in shock at that point - and that takes a lot.

Somebody Pick up Shock Queen ! ! !

This place carries sizes up to 13. And in the emai I recieved from them, they say they wilkl start carring size 14 in the spring.

Not cheap at all, but they look like good quality Leather Shoes and Boots.

Take A Look.

I recalled that someone mentioned here to go heeling in casino. I can't find the thread anymore though.

Does anyone have any experience with Atlantic City? How are the folks there with respect to guys wearing heels? (If I go there, I will wear them discretely, as usual)

Heelma,

I live about 40 minutes from Atlantic City. I am not a big gambler, but I like to visit casions, gamble a little and people watch. I almost always wear heels when I go. Once I sat at a slot machine for 3 hours wearing 4" block heeled boots. Good News... I actually ended up ahead about $40 after all that time.

Walking around casions for hours is also nice, as most areas are carpeted. And most weekend nights bring out the nicer dressed folks, both men and women. With A lot of women wearing their finest heels.

I have also sat in coffee shops, went to concerts and had dinner at many of the casions in Atlantic City. And never an issue wearing heels.

Walking the boardwalk can also be fun. Just be careful of the gaps in the boards. And if you walk too far up the boardwalk, you can catch a jitney for a ride back.

We have a member here who lives real close to AC. And a few in the Philadelphia Area too. Maybe we can get a small informal meet going.

Anybody a little further away, looking for a nice short vacation in Atlantic City?

By the By, AC has gotten a Lot Nicer in the last 5 years, then it has in the Previous 25. Not to sound like a travel guide, but there is a lot of shopping, eating and fun in AC now, and not all is in the casions.

Yes,

Interesting first name of one member, eh?

Just thought I would let everyone know I just received a pair of shoes from Jade Boutique out of Arizona. The shoes were stamped 11 but they are really a size 9. They will take them back at my shipping cost. They might be a good store to buy from but be careful.

Those bastards! The problem was on THEIR END, they should pay the postage!

Ah,

I remember her well.

A Letter to the General Population Of The United States, from Ireland:

THE IRISH - SUCH CLEAR THINKERS

Leave it to the Irish to cut through the crap and make the whole issue crystal clear...

Thoughts from across the pond. An email from Ireland to the brethren in the States...

a point to ponder despite your political affiliation:

'We, in Ireland, can't figure out why people are even bothering to hold an election in the United States.

On one side, you have a pants wearing lawyer, married to a lawyer who can't keep his pants on, who

just lost a long and heated primary against a lawyer who goes to the wrong church who is married to yet another lawyer who doesn't even like the country her husband wants to run.

Now...On the other side, you have a nice old war hero whose name starts with the appropriate "Mc" terminology married to a good looking younger woman who owns a beer distributorship.

What in Lord's name are ye lads thinking over there in the colonies??

There is NO CONTEST.

It's no longer my desktop.

We KNOW who wears the Heels in Your Family....

But who wears the pants?

I hope nobody thinks I'm sulking or angry (not that anyone has suggested this), it was just that I had no way of telling if people were reading the thread or not. I'm glad there are a few members who liked the pics though, so thanks

Roz,

Look at the View Counter on this thread.

Over 4200 views, and the thread is only a month old!

Looks to me like everybody checks out this thread.

I took a short day trip to New York and could not resist these sandals. Stuart Weitzman's $2 million sandals feature over 185 carats of tanzanite and 28 carats of diamonds. Along the front strap is a slim strap of diamonds, but the serious bling curves around the ankle, featuring a 16 carat pear-shaped tanzanite drop surrounded by diamonds dangling down over the top of the foot. Forget the glass slipper. If you can afford these heels, you don't even need a prince.

WOMAN: What would you do if I died: Would you get married again? MAN: Definitely not! WOMAN: Why not - don't you like being married? MAN: Of course I do. WOMAN: Then why wouldn't you remarry? MAN: Okay, I'd get married again. WOMAN: You would? (with a hurtful look on her face) MAN: (makes audible groan) WOMAN: Would you sleep with her in our bed? MAN: Where else would we sleep? WOMAN: Would you put away my pictures, and replace them with pictures of her? MAN: That would seem like the proper thing to do. WOMAN: And would you let her use my golf clubs? MAN: She can't use them; she's left-handed. WOMAN: - - - silence - - - MAN: Damn!

Good to know a few members like the pics though. Maybe I will start the thread up again soon but I need to know enough people are interested as it takes a while to do those posts.

Roz,

I have been lazy too, by not clicking "Thank You". I caught up on all your past posts.

Please keep them coming.

Thank You

THE SHOES

About The Potatoe:

. .

They warned her about going out and getting Half Baked or Mashed, getting a bad name like Hot Potatoe, and ending up with a bunch of little Tater Tots.

.

Yam said, “Don’t worry. No Spudd will get me into the sack and make a Rotten Potatoe out of me.” She did not want to be a Couch Potatoe. But, Yam loved the fried okra, fried green tomatoes, rolls, & muffins included with every meal at the Potatoe Patch, so she wasn’t a Shoestring Potatoe.

.

Mr. and Mrs. Potatoe warned Yam about going off to Europe where she might fall in love with a boiled Irish Potatoe, or a greasy French Fry. They also warned her, “If you go out west, watch our for the Indians, or you might get Scalloped.”

.

Mr. and Mrs. Potatoe wanted the best for Yam, and they wanted a son-in-law who was really in the Chips. So, they sent Yam off to Idaho Potatoe University where she could meet and marry a really Big Potatoe.

.

One day, Yam came home and told her parents that she was going to marry Dan Rather. Mr. and Mrs. Potatoe were upset and said, “Don’t marry him. He is just a Common Tater.” But he was very rich, so she married him anyway. And ... he was her gravy train for the rest of her life.

COURAGE?

My 2nd favorite quote from THE WIZARD OF OZ:

"You have plenty of courage, I am sure," answered Oz. "All you need is confidence in yourself. There is no living thing that is not afraid when it faces danger. The true courage is in facing danger when you are afraid, and that kind of courage you have in plenty.

- L. Frank Baum (Wizard of Oz)

And from the Rocky Horror Picture Show:

"Don't Dream It, Be It"

Please join me in offering our sincere condolences to Kneehighs. His Mother passed away earlier this week. As far as I know, it was a sudden illness that effected her. She died at home with her husband by her side. Kneehighs is now enroute to his parents home. May she rest in peace. .

Taking a leak out in the open is a tricky maneuver. In order to dodge a public urination rap, you've got to be stealthy, somewhat hidden and able to evacuate your bladder with great haste. It's also a bit like real estate, with the onus on location, location, location.

A Polish tourist in London showed himself to be not so knowledgeable about the last part by electrocuting himself while micturating on the tracks of a busy train station.

The 41-year-old schoolteacher crept into a recess at Vauxhall Station in South London in an attempt to take a whiz. It's thought that his urine splashed onto an electrical line that powers the trains, unleashing a 750-volt and killing him instantly.

Dr Shoe Visits New York City:

When the waitress in a New York City restaurant brought him the soup du jour, the British tourist was a bit dismayed.

"Good heavens," he said, "what IS this?"

"Why, it's bean soup," she replied.

"I don't care what it's been," he replied. "What is it now?"

Here is one:

Mary-Kate Olsen's Frankenstein Boots

I have the shorter version.

Three sisters from Nottingham -- Jill, Marie and Fanny -- were always on the look out for new boy friends. They hung around all local Disco's. However, their dancing skills were hampered by having enormous feet. Jill's were size 8, Marie's size 10, and Fanny's a whopping size 12.

One night Jill and Marie decide to leave Fanny behind, and go to the disco on their own, hoping they might be more successful. Sure enough, within minutes they were dancing withtwo eligible lads. All was going well, until they were walking home as a foursome...

"Hey, I've just noticed something," said one of the lads. "Haven't you two got big feet?"

"Well," said Marie, "if you think they are big, you should see the size of our Fanny's!"

How about a Riddle?

A woman buys a new pair of shoes, goes to work, and dies.

How and why did this happen?

And, the answer is......

The woman is the assistant to a circus knife-thrower, who stands in front of a target as knives are thrown around her. The new shoes have higher heels than she normally wears, causing the thrower to misjudge his aim.
