I had last week of for spring break

We didn't get any extra time off. But we do get many days that most people don't normally get, so I'm not complaining. Though, it would be nice to have this day off for packing. I leave at tomorrow at O'Dark Thirty for a week long business trip that will morph into a visit with DarkParents. I don't think you understand just how many pairs of shoes something like this requires. >.<

I do. I’m married to Mrs BBD whose idea of light packing consists of enough luggage to fill one hold in the Titanic.

Its all i really need, well i could use a new pair if tennis shoes, but shoes are expensive.

I'll tell you what makes my blood boil?... Crematoriums.

You see my next door neighbour worships exhaust pipes, he's a catholic converter.

I was reading this book today, The History Of Glue and I couldn't put it down.

I am playing at nation go!

The Shoe Event Horizon is an economic theory that draws a correlation between the level of economic (and emotional) depression of a society and the number of shoe shops the society has.

The theory is summarized as such: as a society sinks into depression, the people of the society need to cheer themselves up by buying themselves gifts, often shoes. It is also linked to the fact that when you are depressed you look down at your shoes and decide they aren't good enough quality so buy more expensive replacements. As more money is spent on shoes, more shoe shops are built, and the quality of the shoes begins to diminish as the demand for different types of shoes increases. This makes people buy more shoes.

The above turns into a vicious cycle, causing other industries to decline.

Eventually the titular Shoe Event Horizon is reached, where the only type of store economically viable to build is a shoe shop. At this point, society ceases to function, and the economy collapses, sending a world spiralling into ruin.

Well according to the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy an effect of the Shoe Event Horizon is the evolution of the surviving population into birds.

So unless you like eating seed or earthworms then yes. :)
