There was a whole adventure with those shoes and the girl who had them. I think they danced. But I sadly forgot the plot. Just remember that I liked it a lot.<BR/><BR/>One of my favouritest films ever had nothing to do with shoes or boots, but with the colour that makes furies out of bulls. It was called the Red Balloon. I believe, originally a French film. I've read the book, I've seen the film, several times. An enchanting story.<BR/><BR/>Love Nancy Sinatra's Boots Song. My boots are not of the "walking over you" quality. More like mukluks, soft. Maybe angels would like them. I don't think I know that song. Guess I wasn't very alert to punk rock. <BR/><BR/>Whatsyedoingthursdaythen?<BR/><BR/>My assumed name for this comment could be an inn or a tea emporium, or a wine garden.

LOLOLOLOL!<BR/><BR/>Sometime, m'friend, we'll get together. In the meantime, I send you my love. Take care of yourself, and Aries. <BR/><BR/>I leave you with two songs - "These Boots are Made for Walking" (Nancy Sinatra)and the punk-rock classic, "The Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes" (Elvis Costello).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17498157.post-1141702161226198752006-03-06T22:29:00.000-05:002006-03-06T22:29:00.000-05:00Wild Thing's zipper busted on boots.

Found these Wild Thing, wild boots, bright red, with a bit of white trim, and sparkly gold through the laces. Very warm. Very waterproof. The pricetag on them $59,99. The price I payed, $12,- The brand is Airwalk. My neighbour told me that''s one of the best. I didn't know. I almost feel like I shopped at the Grasshopper. Funky!<BR/><BR/>Birthday girl, I am sorry, but tomorrow I leave at 10 a.m and am not sure what time in the afternoon I will be back. Wednesday, after the dog walk, I get some people over for an early lunch. That won't get late. Maybe if the weather lasts and Simon had the walks he needed, I can hop on my bike, Wednesday afternoon. But it won't be really early. As far as I know I am free all Thursday. Well, one of my friends once stated, "A birthday ain't over until the last card is in."<BR/><BR/>Picses, I sure hope that Zodiac Aries brings luck for Aries. But she slowly starts to look like a skunk.

We did indeed make it home from StageWest earlier in the day, although I could have surfed the blog at the hotel last night... they had internet TV. However, an unexpected "emergency" at the studio meant I had to go in and meet with the landlord around 2, and I didn't get home until now... all's fine at the studio, but since I didn't really get to relax today as I had intended, I'm going to celebrate tomorrow. Plan to go to the Y in the morning, just hang out in the hot tub after some gentle exercise.... If you want to go to Timmy's for a "Roll Up the Rim to Lose" coffee or hot chocolate in the early afternoon, or even Wednesday, let me know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17498157.post-1141680114876817272006-03-06T16:21:00.000-05:002006-03-06T16:21:00.000-05:00Never heard the second part.

In their ninth life they die of satisfaction, for good? <BR/><BR/>I'm uncertain about Aries. Why is she pulling out her hair? Just a skin thing? Is she sick? Would she sit in the middle of the room, purring her heart out if she were sick? It ain't easy to understand cats.<BR/><BR/>I tried to phone birthday girl. At 4:00 pm. Only answering machine. But you must be back from Toronto if you blogged just before noon. Maybe not. You've got a coming-along-with-you-computer. Just thought of that now. I'll try once more. Happy Birthday anyway.

The posting, for the most part, stays where it is until it becomes archived, or unless something really REALLY offensive was said (and then I'd take the liberty to remove it as the administrator), or if the original writer made a mistake and wanted to fix/change it (as with your spelling mistake)...<BR/><BR/>Sometimes, a comment shows up that is really a spam sales pitch from an outsider.

You can't get it back. And it's best not to get caught with your hand in the mailbox. It could go badly for you.<BR/><BR/>2nd Alternative: On the Edit Posts page, each previous post has its own line, dated etc. On the far right of the line is the word Delete. That's the button you click to delete a post. <BR/><BR/>To Delete a Comment is a whole other thing. If you are signed in to the blog, which you must be to post (but not necessarily to comment) you will see a little trash can at the end of comments.

I wanted to try with this one, cause it doesn't really invite conversation and maybe it just takes up room. But first I wanted to see if I could correct my misspellings of parallel. It slipped through and it bugs me. So, I found the place to edit. I did. But I don't know how to make it effective on the post. Unless maybe delete the whole post first and replace it with the edited one. I did not see a place to delete. I am not experimenting with it, aware of dt's warning that I could be nearly as powerful as Leslie and make the whole dovetale blog system crash.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
