Those red Manolo Blahnik flats you have on.
So you're the one who called Denise flat after all? I didn't realize that Manolo was an underwear brand.
I HAVE a pair of red CTAs just like hers. Chuck Taylor Allstar's. High topped sneakers. Named for an NBA basketball player.
Far be it for me to make judgements of a woman's flatness or not-flatness Tom...I am a knucklehead, but not stupid so I stay silent, and appreciative of a given situation when appropriate. 😉
Oh! Your goose is cooked.
Of course, I never cook goose until December. I'll simmer it til then.
Lol...Well, I'll accept deferred punishment, despite not doing anything wrong in the first place. I'll take one for the team.
Ask Tom. He put it in perspective for me. :)
Tom is a trouble maker...That's why we get along so well. Lol.
Remind me. How many times have you been married? I think I'll spend the rest of my day pondering the advisability of staying silent.
Or I'll just listen to music. :)
Speaking of I turned on my TV and watched Summer of Soul on Hulu. Pretty damn good. 50 year old tape from the Harlem Social Festival that's never been seen. 19 year old Stevie Wonder (on drums, too) Mahalia Jackson, Gladys Knight and many others. Oh, Mavis Staples is young, too.
I remember when I graduated high school in Connecticut, one of my best friends got a rent-controlled apartment from his grandmother in Harlem and I would take the train up after work in the summer and go spend the weekend there.
I had no idea that Harlem was as colorful in music and art. It was an eye-opener.
Seems a good use for TV when most of the other stuff is trash.
Oh!! I almost missed this AND that comment slipped past me like greased lightening.
Thanks, Tom! You know I'm a little jelly of your Chuck Taylors!
Now I have a true story. I have a friend that I've owned several businesses with (on line) and have worked with for a few years. I first met her because her first Avatar was a pair of Red CTAs (on feet, with lower legs attached). I gave her the famous "Since you showed me yours I'll show you mine" line.
OMG! You didn't!! Of course, you did!
Now, I need the rest of the story. ;))
You know you are a hoot, right??
Of course I did. I promptly posted a picture of my much larger red CTA's. I had an (expensive) 1mp Hewlitt Packard camera that I'd bought to post pictures to a website for my off line business. That was over 15 years ago :)
We've lost more money than we've made, but had a lot of fun and met some good people doing it. She's around here every once in a while. We stay in relatively close touch. I hope to get to PEI and meet her in person next summer.
I went back up there the fall before COVID. It is such incredible beauty up there. And did I say rural? You can buy a house for a cracking good price when I was there, so shocking, living like a kind for a fraction of the cost here.
It was the natural beauty that always takes my breath away. I hope you get up there. It is heaven.
She sounds fun. :)
