Rick James' "Super Freak".
The earth shifted slightly on its axis, and I felt the same sort of disorientation as the first (and only) time I heard Leslie Gore doing her rendition of AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" or The Oak Ridge Boys covering "Carry On Wayward Son" (both from the When Pigs Fly compilation).
I think I'm awake now.
One for Shoesie Badoozie
As promised.
Things you should know about this footwear:
- These boots were made for walkin'--not scootin'. The only boot scooting I ever did was when I found myself in such a crush of humanity that I was unable to take a full step. Not so much a scoot as a shuffle, really.
- Like Anne's, my feet have grown a bit since I bought the boots over 15 years ago.
- Unlike Anne, I'd still wear them if they fit. I've lost about 1 1/2" in height due to my degenerative disks and could use the elevation. And wouldn't it be easier and less humiliating than having to change the information on my driver's license?

those look kind of spendy. glad you saved them, they could come in handy at some point?
i recommend against changing your drivers license. it can be scarey.
i'm a closet travis tritt lover, don't tell anyone
Those are fine looking boots. You should only take them off for one thing.
Bicycle riding.
What did you think I was gonna say?
I want to know Ricky Skaggs beauty routine, he has to be doing something right.
great boots..
yellojkt: Honestly, I couldn't have guessed. I'd only just returned from a training ride when I read your comment, and my mind was more on logging my miles than in the gutter.
My first thought would have been "only take them off for a post-ride shower."
I know, I know. It's ridiculous. I mean, who rides in lizard skin boots? Bikes, I mean.
Emma: Yep. Pretty young looking. And he has, thankfully, grown into his hair.
Ricky Skaggs has a big face - people with big faces (like me) tend not to show wrinkles as much.
Lik'em boots ya got dair. Maybe we should trade. :-)
Oh Foo. Please tell me you snuck into someone else's closet for that picture. Tell me those cowboy boots aren't yours!
Unless you have a matching lasso. Then it might be OK.
Tink: Don't be ridiculous. Those aren't cowboy boots; they're lizard skin.
No lasso, no ten-gallon hat. And before you ask, no whip either (ya naughty little minx).
I had a Super Freak moment on my iPod the other day (Rick James followed an especially worshipful gospel tune sung by Elvis Presley. ;-) Earth shifting indeed.
Nice boots.
