Firefox Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 Is there someone you've been watching. Do you like what they say or what they do? Tell people about it it here...
Highluc Posted March 12, 2002 Posted March 12, 2002 It's a difficult choice but I still admire Xaphod for his humor and depth of his posts and conversations. This is still nothing compared to meeting him live. He developped a style of clothing that is unique and suits him well. He also has the guts to wear whatever he likes, even his knee high spike leather boots over his trousers in daylight public. Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence
Debbie(HK) Posted March 13, 2002 Posted March 13, 2002 I have to say that Inga and I have very similar tastes in style and outlook to life Debbie This is a platform free shoe zone!
IHeels Posted March 13, 2002 Posted March 13, 2002 Thanks Debbie, Simular yes, but then again different in some respects. I'm also into that glam rock chic stuff also, just adore 'Bettina Liano' jeanswear, also very sporty, this adds to our character as individuals. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
IHeels Posted March 13, 2002 Posted March 13, 2002 Also forgot, yeah I like Laurie, she can express herself and also has a vibrant personality. A fun person and I appreciate that. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
Laurieheels Posted March 14, 2002 Posted March 14, 2002 Oh no, my humility, it broke! Thanks Inga, swell of you to compliment me I thinkt he board helps me to maintain what you call my vibrant personality. If it were not for people like you, however, that may be a bit more subdued. I like to write, I like to be expressive, so it is just me being me. If that makes me admired, well, thank you everyone. In reality, I am just being me and having fun. That's the only reason to do anything in this world. Oh, we also do things to survive, but that is a very different level. I admire everyone for posting and taking part, but this is easy with people like Debbie and Inga on site. Thanks again, and welcome to the Forum's Mutual Admiration Society!
Firefox Posted March 14, 2002 Author Posted March 14, 2002 I admire quite a few people. Jenny for getting us going and setting the tone for our community. Highluc, for flying planes, rebuilding cars, building houses, and managing to express his fashion individuality even at times within the context of a military environment. Debbie, for being honest about herself and sharing her pictures on the internet when many less courageous people would not have done 1/10 of what she has. Jeff, for sacrificing his time and finances to provide us with a proper home (and also for top marks in 5" heel competition!) Xaphod for being very original, and not afraid to express himself despite some setbacks. Laurie for being Laurie, need I say more? Inga for many incisive contributions and help with the board. Francis, Calv, and Dr Shoe for being RL friends as well as virtual ones. Sorry if I missed anyone out, everyone has an important contribution to make
Laurieheels Posted March 14, 2002 Posted March 14, 2002 Laurie for being Laurie, need I say more? Maybe not. More as good is a very American concept, and sometimes just to be mentioned is enough. Or maybe you have no idea how to describe my wierdness and just wished to make me feel good with a mention. Who can say? Who would care? Not I, most certainly.
Tom-NL Posted March 14, 2002 Posted March 14, 2002 I can wholeheartedly agree with Firefox's list, but I think it misses one name: his own. For his time and effort in starting new discussions, keeping existing ones going and seeing after proper use of these boards.
terayon Posted March 14, 2002 Posted March 14, 2002 i admire highluc, his was the first mens heel site i ever read, and he has lead a very interesting life, and has a massive collection of shoes too =)
Firefox Posted March 14, 2002 Author Posted March 14, 2002 Thanks Tom I forgot to mention you and Bubba too, for keeping the chatroom going and general help.
Debbie(HK) Posted March 15, 2002 Posted March 15, 2002 All my friends here actually, too many to mention by name but you know who you are Debbie This is a platform free shoe zone!
HeelDog Posted March 15, 2002 Posted March 15, 2002 Obviously I'm a newbee (note my join date & comfy loafers - oh to achieve the 5" spike boots so well shown by FF), but let me sum it up this way: FF pretty much defined the list. Anyone who takes the time to share, advise, and have fun around the topic goes on my fav list. I do enjoy the bantering of Laurieheels & IHeels. They keep me chuckling and I love the smell of humor in the morning. I would say they are my favorite pair of heels. HA! (sorry, there is so much cheese there, your keyboards probably smell of it) Peace out! HeelDog
xaphod Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 Hmmm, this smacks too much of the Baftas, the Golden Globe and the ultimate in mutual self-congratulation, the Oscar farce. When are we going to start employing our individual publicists ? Seriously, I don't think we need this. As a cyber-community with a common interest, we have found like-minded souls, all with their strengths and weaknesses, but together I think we are the happiest bunch of people on the net. Just compare the slanging match which passes for discussion on the Trisha site (you will have to do a search for the link) with our easy-going bunch of characters. This thread is fine for a bit of fun, but it could so easily cause divisions. It would be a pity for this to happen with everybody working so well together. For my part, I just do my own style thing. If this helps anyone else in their life, then I'm pleased. PS Any more comments like Highlucs, and I won't be able to get my head through the front door !

Highluc Posted March 16, 2002 Posted March 16, 2002 He could always sleep in the boat on the driveway, it saw heels before. Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence
IHeels Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 Hiya Heeldog and Laurie, You mentioned cheese, here's a more comprehensive list: Gouda, Red Leicester, Tilsit, Caerphilly Bel Paese, Red Windsor, Stilton, Gruyere, Emmental, Norwegian Jarlsberger, Liptauer, Lancashire, White Stilton, Danish Blue, Double Gloucester, Cheshire, Dorset Blue Vinney, Brie, Roquefort, Pont-l'Eveque, Port Salut, Savoyard, Saint-Paulin, Carre-de-L'Est, Boursin, Bresse Bleu, Perle de Champagne, Camembert, Edam, Caithness, Smoked Austrian, Japanese Sage Darby, Wensleydale, Greek Feta, Gorgonzola, Parmesan, Mozzarella, Pippo Crème, Danish Fimboe, Venezuelan Beaver Cheese, Cheddar, 'Illchester, Limburger. Hopefully yours was one of these. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
Francis Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 sorry! you can't have the camembert! the cat ate it!
HeelDog Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 IHeels, Where's the colby? Granted it's a mild basic cheese, but I grew up on it. Has anyone else here ever heard of or tried cheese curds - I love them! Striving for the cheesey hieghts, HeelDog
Laurieheels Posted March 17, 2002 Posted March 17, 2002 I have had cheese curds on a dish called Poutine. This is a french Canadian thing, some may know it. I have had the cheese curds in that, but only in Ottawa, which isn't quite Provence Quebec but close enough to make it good. They take fries and smother them with cheese curds and hot gravy. It can taste great, but it is a LOT of fat to handle in one sitting. Poutine must be french for Bowl of Heart Attack. I think a small bowl would hold my entire fat and calorie intake for the entire day.
Firefox Posted March 17, 2002 Author Posted March 17, 2002 Is it worth starting a "cheese thread" in general discussion please guys ?
Calv Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Perhaps move it to the cheese board Do your own thing. Don't be a victim of conformity. Calv
Laurieheels Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 ooops. I am not even that big a fan of cheese, but hey, a cheese subject in the generals would do nice. Sorry on behalf of all of us cheese talkers.
IHeels Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 I too don't eat much cheese. Just posted the bit about cheese to generate fun discussion. Francis knows the source by his response. Don't think a thread is really worthwhile. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
Laurieheels Posted March 18, 2002 Posted March 18, 2002 Maybe we should all admire Firefox as the friendly police constable out to make sure we all post where we should post? In a funny hat, armed with a truncheon, and wearing boots with heels, he is the funkiest constable around... yeah bay-beeeee. Maybe it could be a hit comedy, but would the BBC ewver pick it up? (okay, so I am close to 300 and I am trying to pad up my total)
Debbie(HK) Posted March 19, 2002 Posted March 19, 2002 It seems like you have your promotion Laurie I liked that one Calvin - very funny Debbie This is a platform free shoe zone!
Nata Posted March 26, 2002 Posted March 26, 2002 Who do I admire on this board ? Got to be Debbie and Laurie. Cheers, Nata
ShockQueen Posted March 27, 2002 Posted March 27, 2002 I admire JeffB (Jeff on this board?) for giving me the writings that I needed to make that large step into wearing heels to work (and I have NOT looked back!) I also admire Firefox and Francis for being such cool people in general and someday hope to meet the both of them. SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Francis Posted March 27, 2002 Posted March 27, 2002 that's a guarantee! not sure how long it'll be before we meet, but it will happen
