Don't cry, Colleen, smile. In all of my years, despite being heckled by family, even my young kids, I refuse to change when it comes to wearing socks with flip flops. Once you jam your toes into the tongue of the flop, they stay in place very well and you can walk the shops in old downtown or even hit the mall. Some people look but it's only out of envy because they know it's comfortable (everybody has done this at home) and wish they could wear the same in public. Colleen, you know you've at least tried this at home and if not, give it a try. Don't be concerned about how it looks at first, focus on comfort and then try them out when you go shopping. You'll be hooked just like the rest of us who get labeled and mocked for wearing socks with flops. :)

I thought a cooter meant something else. Yeah, those cooters are dirty. I would never wear dirty socks with my sandals as I have far too much pride when in public to wear dirty socks like the dude in the pic.

This is how.

Socks and flip flops, not sandals. Look, when I'm at home I like my bare feet to breathe and if I have to go into town to pick up a chain for the ripsaw, killer for the weed or some shells for the 12, I simply put some stockings on my feet, sleep my feet into my flip flops and go about my business. The Maryland socks rock. I don't pull them up at high as they'll stretch and leave them sag a little, just for fahsion's sake. I wear flip flops, these same ones to be exact.

I think a 6 oz sirloin would take care of all of it. Forget the 3g of carbs and call it a day. It's morning now so I guess it doesn't matter. Lol

Rachael, she just disappeared all of a sudden. I remember she was talking about going on a date with some guy and the poof. I hope she's just gotten bitten by the love bug and is okay.

What an inspiring post, Beacon. This freedom is available to every smoker out there and awaits those who've quit and still yearn for it.

Woots!! October 21st. Will be the first in line to get my hardback first edition to go with the rest of my 1st edition collection of his books. http://www.jgrisham.com/ Somebody give me a woots or at least a fist bump! :) The Great Recession of 2008 left many young professionals out of work. Promising careers were suddenly ended as banks, hedge funds, and law firms engaged in mass lay-offs and brutal belt tightening. Samantha Kofer was a third year associate at Scully & Pershing, New York City’s largest law firm. Two weeks after Lehman Brothers collapsed, she lost her job, her security, and her future. A week later she was working as an unpaid intern in a legal aid clinic deep in small town Appalachia. There, for the first time in her career, she was confronted with real clients with real problems. She also stumbled across secrets that should have remained buried deep in the mountains forever.

Thanks for the update! Man I love that series. Especially glad it's slated for many more seasons.

I'm very concerned about TAC. Very.

Where you at? Hope all is well. You haven't been forgotten about so check in if you see this. Doesn't matter if you're smoking or not. Just let us know that you're well and if your not, what can we do?

Everybody knows how I drink my coffee, how I brew it and how it's perfection in a cup. Neighbors bring people I don't even know over to my home to watch me brew. It's an art. It's a craft. It's my craft and I've mastered it. You're lucky I wanted to slum it a bit and stop by this thread. :read:

Flip flops? I wear them with my Maryland tube socks and shorts.

You got an entire train load of quitters who have your back. Post as often as you like, start a blog, watch the documentaries, vent your frustrations and celebrate your victories. We'll be here for all of that with you. :)

Best MJ song right here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj4zNWW2nvY

She's a skimmer. She skims. At least according to what my second cousin says (Ava's auntie). She skims books as well as tips from peoples tables as she walks out of a restaurant. Just sayin...

This song is as bad as they come, but the music kicks ass and takes names. I've lifted to many weights and ran too many miles whilst listening to this song.

I grew up listening to KD. Again, had all the albums. lol Abigail!!!!!

Now that we're getting down to the gritty shit, Rammstein. One. Hell. Of. A. Band. Period. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VS07GMUcoaI

How about Lemmy, the baddest mofo who ever took to the stage. They say when he goes to Hell satan will be scared. lol This is some real rock and roll with no froo-froo pretty boy hair band bullshit. Motorhead. Loved them for decades. This song reminds me of the scummy politicians in DC where I work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIonRQFpKN4

I saw Judas Priest back in the 80's. My first concert ever. I have Judas Priest in my workout playlist on my ipod. Rob Halford is freaking awesome. He rode that big ass Harley out of stage too.

You are one cool cat yourself, DD. This is one of my favorites from them as well. I remember when they first made it. I bought it on vinyl. :) How 'bout some Dio?

Welcome to the forum! :) I'd wish you luck but luck won't be needed. You can do this without any luck at all. How long have you smoked? How are you doing today so far?

Give some love to these cats. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjJusRHrio4
