Bowling shoes are the bomb. I have designed some and maybe can figure out how to post pictures from the old catalog.

 

I have a friend here in Tucson who has a thriving custom bowling shoe business.

    The subject line lists today’s date as 4/31.     Actually, today is 4/61.

    This is one of favorites. Bought them in Vienna and I wear them a lot.   Who said sneakers have to be bland and boring?   Fluevog is still a genius, even if he is Canadian

Out of curiosity, my "shoe" count...

 

 

Work shoes (some version of Merrill hiking shoe)

Backup work shoes (same as above)

Work boots

Cheapie sandals for lake duty

Aqua socks for lake duty

Non-work tennis shoes (rarely used)

Dress shoes for khakis (more rarely used)

Dress shoes for suit (even more rarely used)

Non-work boots (never used)

 

 

More than I thought, may need to expand my mini-shelf a bit.

Where did you see that? Odorizzi didn’t even complete 4.

 

 

I know. Cleveland is messing with my iPad down here in Atlanta.

Odorizzi went 3.2 with 92 pitches. 

 

Bad enough, but not 120.

 

 

 

The important thing is that Odor managed to compress 120 bad pitches' worth of futility into just 92, so... efficiency!

Logan!!!!

 

Escobar!!!!

 

Gonna use up my !quota if this keeps up...

Does he customize existing shoes or make them himself? All of the current bowling shoes from the major companies are made in China. Are you familiar with Lind shoes?

Thanks Chief, I'll take a few. Will PM you and Carole (the shoe girl) tonight.  Maybe we need a opener about mens shoes.  It's kinda weird talking about shoes...maybe there's a weird foot fetish going on here...Kinda creeped out but whatever.

 

I think Revelations might be more appropriate. The end times are upon us.

 

7th inning fan Exodus is looking pretty likely too.

yarnivek, out.

 

btw, I mentioned about a month ago that my wife and I were working toward adopting a teenaged girl. On Saturday we will officially take over her foster care and start down the path to adoption.

Congrats! :)

I think the answer to this game and game thread is more shoe talk and pictures ...

The internet has failed me.

 

I seek an image from the movie "6 String Samurai" where death says "you have failed me for the last... Nice Shoes!"

I’ve always called this pair my bowling shoes. An old, comfy pair of Eccos:

Well, good stuff from Duffey. Let's see if the offense can take advantage of a weak Cleveland bullpen.

Ahh, the soft underbelly of the Indian's bullpen.  And the bottom of the Twins' order.  It's like being caught between a rock and a hard place, only totally opposite.

A sponge and a comfy sofa?

I missed Dozier's last GDP while driving across town.  On the bright side, the guy at the take and bake pizza place gave me two free pies.  Not sure why, but I took em.

I was thinking a fish and a Vaselined hand.

Hmmm. I forgot my keen sandals! So 23.

Gamecast only tonight for me here on the road. For some reason only Dozier, Rosario and Escobar have their first initial between their last name and their position abbreviation on the lineup card.

 

No biggy for Dozier B 2B and Escobar E SS, but with Rosario E LF tonight, I'm stuck with a mental image of this guy playing ball:

Okay ... going back to my HyperIce Hypersphere. :)

Is that anything like a Licorice Lickosphere?
