Meanwhile, there's a photo circulating of OBama on the phone, with
his feet up on a desk. His shoes need new soles. Obama said he had
already had that done once to his shoes...and that he was wearing
them out walking around in his campaign and meeting voters.

Didn't know they still made shoes that were worth re-soling.
Still remember the last new leather soles I had.
Busy intersection in downtown Chicago.
They slid right out from under me and I was on my ass.
Very embarrassing.

I have a really nice pair of penny loafers I paid about $175 for a
couple years ago. I wore the thin, "stylish" leather soles right out, so
I took them up to a local mall and "got an estimate" for new non-leather
soles and heels. $50. The shoes were otherwise in great shape. Got them
back, looked like new again.

That is ****ing amazing!
