Money, women, and booze. They go a long way. That would be, as Paul Harvey used to say, the rest of the story.

Yep. It snowed. In half the country. It’s pretty darn miserable, maybe I should just take a day off work if I have to resort to the above coping mechanisms.

Technically it’s illegal for you to say “I bet you $10 that I can <insert entertaining task here>.”

People, people, people… Don’t listen to the words spoken by musician who uses a symbol in their name. I know the auto-tune is catchy, and the whiny voice somehow soothing (?).

But really, doing half of the stuff described in top 40 songs would end up in a slow painful death. Which I guess if you are willing to do something described in a song, maybe you have it coming.

I’m thinking of transforming this website into a fashion column. Only to give it some purpose. If I could rid the world of UGG boots, the world would be a happier place.

You see, the thing I don’t understand about fashion is comfort. If, for example, I were to ask someone why they would choose to let their feet look like they have been swallowed by a sheep’s intestine (colloquially referred to as ‘uggs’), they would invariably reply, “they’re just so warm and comfortable”.

Fast forward to a formal evening with this same individual. In my example, I see the person wearing 6 inch tall high heels and am listening to them complain about the discomfort felt.

“why the high heels?” I ask, “do you value comfort?”

“they look really good, and fashion is worth the pain” they snap back.

So now I’m at a point of confusion. You will wear something comfortable that is aesthetically hideous, but will endure physical pain to wear something pleasing to the eye?

I’m confused on this topic.
