Just sayin'...


I was also just thinking about one of the tenets of flower arrangements is to use odd numbers.

There's a thread about these, but corthay also disagrees with you about the eyelets, as seen in their arca model And I'm not sure if we're only talking about dress shoes, but doc martens, Clarks DBs and many other popular casual shoes have even eyelets.. If style teaches us anything, it should be that there are no rules, only guidelines.

Just when I thought Tony and Dean had lost it... that's a beautiful shoe Luk-Cha... enjoy those freaks. I wondered when a seamless balmoral would be made... now, if I could stick your black diamond cap together with this... J
