Air Pump Shoes

Yea, you all remember them.  

They were cool.

They were the "thing".

They were shoes you could pump up with air.

Well...guess what...THEY STILL EXIST!

When I was little, I thought they were the coolest things ever.  I didn't even know what they did...until about 5 minutes ago.  The whole point of the pump was to blow up the tongue, so they stayed, like, I guess, conformed to your feet.  Well, they're making a comeback and here are the 2009 versions, available from Reebok (the orginal inventor) soon.  Here's a picture, in case you want them.

Oh yea, my next purchase, will be these shoes.

In other news, Jocelyn Kirsh, who attended Drexel University and got caught stealing people's identities is claiming that she had a troubled childhood and basically her life sucked.  Her dad gave her (and by gave, I mean, he actually did the procedure) fake boobs and a nose job for her birthday.  Her mom left her, and her brother was abusive.  Cool, so they shaved 10 months off her sentence which is around 70 months or about 5.8 years.

Also, Palin appeared on SNL.  Her and Tina Fey do look really similar.  (i.e. while I didn't see it, it sounded like a let down.  it's hard to make fun of people who are right in front of you, and see them cry.)

Sexual assault seems to be more prevalent nowadays as a Drexel kid got "inappropriately touched" in a Olde City cab and some woman just got raped in broad daylight at 6th and Girard.  Girard is such a pleasant street these days.

The good news is there is still hope when you're 88 years old.  This old "spitfire" waitress is still going strong and apparently customers come in just to see her in NYC.

See it's okay to speak your mind.

Have a wonderful Monday.
