Sauk Drive (basically a LB on the 201) in Dublin. They sneer at rain.

Surrey Saturday.

LandSharks in Navy ordered!

I decided to pull out my last unworn pair from the Trunk Show. WFH has certainly slowed me down in the rotation. DMC Landons on Commando for the weekend.

Wearing snuff suede Neumoks today on the way to get a hair cut since the barber shops have finally reopened.

For fans of long hair in the wild pictures in shoe threads, look one last picture a few minutes before getting a hair cut. Long hair is very uncomfortable unless you are a girl and used to having long hair.

For fans of totally random pictures in shoe threads noticed these things had popped up all over town. Saw one on Sunset, one on Camden, and this one on Rodeo Drive. They have little red and blue flashing lights on them.


I think, like the Elf On A Shelf, these things are watching us, watching us, watching us. Decided best thing to do was wave at them, which I did going to and from the barber shop.

I'm not usually one to follow the herd, as we all know where that leads. But you all are a good herd to follow.

Congratulations! You should be proud.

Some oblique R.E.M. references can be a little bit too oblique.

Oh well.

In the meantime, some simple props to occupy my time:

DoES wearing split toes signify the end of the world as we know it?

Only if: This one goes out to the one I love

*** I'll admit that even I missed the first reference and I should know better being of a certain age (Gen X-er), having seen them (with the Indigo Girls) in 1989 at Madison Square Garden, a wife who is a big fan, and generally knowing all their songs.

putting on these just now, I had to readjust my hand to finish slipping on (shoe was in air rather than on ground). I had a quick thought of man a pull tab would help. Amiright @darkclassic ?

So a year or two ago we’re in this music trivia thing and it comes down to one audio clip and it’s Mad World and every Brit in the room says it was a Tears for Fears song and every Yank, including me, says you’re crazy, that’s REM.

Turns out it was Gary Jules doing it on the Donnie Darko soundtrack. Turns out it was originally a Tears for for song but the Jules version sounds so much like REM that - as John Wayne said in Rio Bravo - “It'd be pretty close. I'd hate to have to live on the difference.”

...The Gary Jules version doesn't sound like REM, bro.
