Crocs and Mossimos

Filed under: Mundane Or Sublime — admin @ 11:49 am

Look at me in my Crocs, Mossimo cargo shorts, NewEra formfit hat and a shirt saying POPULARITY IS A SOCIAL DISEASE.

Battling Freepers for days on end this summer. Never a dull moment…

So I had a problem with my brand new Crocs for a little while. Big huge painful blisters on both insteps right away. Wore them for about 3 hours and then set them aside and healed the blisters all week.

Good thing I was in Boston the other day because the Eastern Mountain Sports people who sold ’em to me had no idea how to respond. Behind Quincy Marketplace there’s a bunch of shops, you know, Banana Republic, et al… Well a new shop that moved in sometime the past couple seasons was a brand new full-on Crocs distribution store. First one I’ve seen anywhere. Possibly the clo

sest one to me. So one of the clerks knew exactly what I was talking about. She told me to loosen the back straps even more than logic would tell you. Their purpose is not to snug you in even a tiny bit. They’re to keep the Crocs from falling off, and that’s it.

Mission accomplished. I wore ’em a couple hours yesterday and then again all day today so far. Yay!

I knew if I just took the time I could become fully bonded with my new Crocs.

Go See War, Inc.

Filed under: Sports — admin @ 11:49 am

If you are anywhere that War Inc is playing I urge you to see it. If not, then perhaps get involved in the “leg work” toward helping it grow in grassroots fashion.

You see, John and Joan Cusack had picked satire for its genre, and thought surely it would reach a very large audience and etc., yadda, yadda, yadda.

The distributors are afraid to put ANY emotional energy into it. It hit a couple/few theaters at the end of May, a few/half-dozen more at the beginning of June and if we’re lucky it may just hit a wider distro by the end of this month. It really is a worthwhile movie. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll wet yourself laughing and crying, and

you’ll laugh so hard it’ll change the world. It really will.

I felt that th

e moment I laid my own eyes on it.

Great movie.

Enjoy.
