    I've pretty much worn only sandals (rainbows, best. sandal. ever.) for the past two months. Socks are sweaty. Seeing as we live in "sweat city" (that bayless is a firstrate assclown), sandals are a must have.




    (crap I'm in Dallas, not Houston, well Texas is hot all around)

    It's not like I wear them in the water. The point of wearing them is they are easy to take off and on. And if they get wet from spashes from the pool (we played water volleyball) etc.... I shouldn't care.

    This puts me back $20 and 30min of my time tomorow. what a douche

    No. Not associated with the gay movement. They had the rainbow before it was stolen. I've had mine for 4 years, only had to send them in for repairs once. They are made for long walks on the beach and sunsets.

    This thread reminds me of the time my shoes were stolen in high school. I had changed for football practice when I noticed that I had forgotten to put my shoes in my locker. Well, the coach was yelling at everyone to hurry their asses up, so I just left them in front of my locker. After practice I came back in to change and they were gone. A few days later I see some guy from the team wearing them. I was like, "Hey, where'd you get those shoes?" and he said, "I dunno." so I said, "Did you get them from in front of my locker during football practice?" and he was like "Yeah. :eek: " So I got them back in the end.

    If you had named this thread "douche bags", then everyone might have started comparing their favorite brands. :)

    For what it's worth, guys wear sandals all the time around here, even if they're not going to the beach.

    Up, I feel for you.

    I've had people take liquor out of my cooler when I was at the beach and .....well distracted. (I wont mention by what... ;) ) And it wasnt like they got mixed up between coolers either. My cooler is the only one on the beach that looks like an old fashioned wooden keg. And besides, I doubt many people walk to the beach with a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue either.

    Its alright though, I drank from the bottle, so all the thief really got is "Blue" mixed with my backwash.....hope they enjoyed that, and got sick afterwards.

    If I ever catch a thief, a cop better be around to protect his ass...

    that reminds me ........

    Weve been doing alot of spring cleaning and throwing away of old stuff.

    Last weekend, we got the dog a new bed (his old one was infested with hair and ..ummm ...stains). So we put the old bed out to the street for the sanitation guys to pick up. So I am cleaning the garage and I see someone pull up to my driveway at high speed, swipe the dog bed, from the trash can, and speed off like a bat out of hell.

    If that weren't weird enough .....yesterday afternoon we planted flowers and had a few left over. Didn't know what to do with them so again, we put them out on top of the trash can to be picked up. SAME PERSON, a few hours later, again comes speeding to our driveway, jumps out, takes the flowers and speeds off down the street.

    Its not like I really care, I'd rather someone put those to use that be put in a landfill. I just find it a lil weird that apparently, this guy is monitoring people's garbage for goodies.

    That's pretty weird, but check this out.

    A couple of Thursdays ago, I dragged my big black City of Houston garbage can out to the curb like I do every Thursday morning. When I got home that evening, every house in the neighborhood had a big empty City of Houston garbage can by their curb (like every Thursday evening). Well, all but mine. Someone swiped my freakin' garbage can!

    Why would anyone take a freakin' garbage can? Why was mine the only one missing? I live towards the back of the neighborhood on a non-thru street. There's another street that goes right through the middle of the neighborhood that would have been much easier to gank a garbage can from.

    So I called the city to get a new one and they told me I had to file a police report. Sorry, but I'm not going to call the police because of a stolen $10 trash can.

    LOL codell. Sounds like a College Student.

    One of our desks came from someone's lawn. :)

    He just didn't want to be spotted and feel ashamed.

    Like the saying goes, one man's trash is another man's treasure.
