LAMENTING A SHOE

The time has come for me to throw out my favourite, and possible the best ever, shoe in the history of the world ever even in the time before God or whoever was silly enough to make it. Of course I'm talking about the High-top Ex-o-fit Reebok Classic.

This bold bright shoe braved the fronter with William Shatner, and for me it boldly transported me beyond the realms of my imagination. Yeh OK I know they look like a piece of shit right here. But they have good reason too.

I've had them three years. I wore them like nearly almost everyday of my life since they arrived on my door step (brought 'em off da interweb init), wore them for sport, wore them for leisure, wore them paintballing on a drizzly English day of mud, wore them three months around India, wore them bloody everywhere!

But although I probably will be crying like a baby girl as I toss them carelessly into the nearest bin and breath in clean non-smelly air for the first time in a long while, there is a silver lining in this tragedy...NOW I GET TO BUY A BRAND SPANKING NEW PAIR DON'T I?!
