Since you brought up the topic of slippers, my husband is driving me
crazy trying to find his favorite kind - surfahs. PayLess used to sell
them. If anyone can tell me where "surfah" brand slippers are still
sold, I'd appreciate it.
Hope to see you soon, Nathan, with your cool new footwear.

Oh yeah no! <smacks forehead> We saw you and Katya with the cutest fake
tatoos on New Years Eve. But... ahhh Susan, I was thinking of something a
but more risque... perhaps something like a scantily clad hawaiian
maiden? <grin>

I once bought the 'strapless' slippahs - no straps, jus' glue on them -
supposed to be reusable, the glue was supposed to stick to the slippah,
not your feet...
yup, you guessed it, me and my luau feet... step, step... hey great,
strapless slippahs.... take em off - oops - no more glue (on the
slippah), glue on my feet, glue on Popo's carpet... oops...
When I go back next, I have to buy some Otafuku slippahs - get magnets in
the soles and under the ball of the foot - very comfortable - used to get
at Longs or Sears...
wear 'em here when possible, but my pair has just about had it!
