Saw a guy where something like these this weekend (his were rock climbing shoes). He loves 'em...
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Tim Ferris was wearing these (or something similar) in the first podcast he did w/ kevin rose... let me go find the link
- Chris Heath
I've been thinking about buying some myself but just haven't done it yet. A know a couple people who love them. One runs in the them and another just wears them around the house and outside. It's like being barefoot without having to worry about nails, glass, Cheerios, etc.
- CAJ, somewhere else
I just bought some socks that have the individual toes a couple weeks ago (inspired by these shoes) because i figured they're cheaper than a pair of shoes to see if i like having my toes segregated like that... at first it felt weird, but i actually kind of like them now. still not sure if i'd go for the shoe though i might get a couple more pairs of the socks
- Chris Heath
I love these. I need to get a new pair. great for promoting natural running style and saving one's knees :)
- Bren -- Still Believes
I have been told that they are great by friends who own them, but it's still only *hearsay* I do need to buy a pair myself some day soon.
- Eric Logan
My hiking community loves them, dearly.
- Miss Elle
They would be brilliant for days when you kayak and hike. Open toed shoes always leave me with sore toes from kicking rocks once we land. Brilliant design!
- Fossil Huntress
These are going on my wish list that is for sure. :-)

I just got another DM testimonial from a local runner here in StL. I will be getting some once I get the income flowing again. Try the specialty outdoor stores. Here in St. Louis, I would say The Alpine Shop.

I had the immense opportunity to see this wonderful paper craft art installation by a genius of the name of Wataru Itou (伊藤航), a young student of a major art university here in Tokyo. The installation is hand made over four years of hard work, complete with electrical lights and a moving train, all made of paper! Clearly, this man must have created one of the most stunning examples of Paper Craft in the world? At the exhibition you will also have the chance to see a video showing Mr. Itou at work in his studio, cutting and folding piece by piece. The exhibition is called Umi no Ue no Oshiro (A Castle On the Ocean ), 海の上のお城. It is exhibited at Umihotaru, a place which in itself is a major attraction: a service area in the middle of the ocean, right between Tokyo City and Chiba Prefecture. If you haven’t checked it out yet, use Google Earth for a close up of what is probably the weirdest parking lot in the world.

something about bleeding out on a hello kitty bed makes me lol. is that wrong?
- Brian Ries
why would a creepy cartoon cat help ease the stress of giving birth?. and why would an adult appreciate that? i reckon it would make the experience worse
- ♥ Stephiepooos ♥
Apparently there's something soothing and comfortable about Hello Kitty. I have MANY friends that are obsessed and even stand in line to buy special edition Hello Kitty crap. That is sold with a premium. A PREMIUM.

@Brian Not at all... In fact I find it somewhat appropriate...
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
A close friend (who was also a colleague) in Thailand - tough as nails and as rational as they come - is obsessed with Hello Kitty and would so go for this. And she just might - she's pregnant. I see her traveling to Taiwan just for the delivery. Hahaha

If anything, it'd make me angrier LOL
- Mona Nomura
As fucked up as this is, my 9 year old daughter would love it
- David Jacobs
YOU WOULD LET YOUR 9 YEAR OLD GIVE BIRTH?! (kidding)
- Mona Nomura
from IM
Mona, haha, as a kids hospital wing. My wife on the other hand, would be horrified.
- David Jacobs
let me guess, it's an OB/GYN specialists office?
- Morgan Haley
I'm going to have nightmares now, thanks. Can you imagine getting a c-section in that hosp? I don't think they could keep the OR free of vomit.
- InPerpetualMotion(Gina k)
David - thanks for having a sense of humor. ;) And I am with your wife!! Morgan: It is Asia. Enough said LOL

"You know what’s never happened once? Even once, ever? No one has ever walked through a mall food court and seen a girl in her 20s shoveling fast food in her fat face and said, wow, what a sexy girl..." [Shared because: JLH deserves this. Lots of this. Also, because I love Brendon's (WWTDD.com) writing style.]
- Anthony Citrano
You can't hide natural beauty. She's still pretty even with her mouth full. I'm sure there are many pictures on the internet of me in mid-chew and I'm still super handsome.
- Kenton
I think it has. That's how I met my ex.
- Kamath (नमः)
zomg! Hot chick eating Carl's Jr.! What more could you ask for? Except maybe fries with that?
- Josh Haley
lol...+Josh @Lindsey, Do I have to explain EVERYTHING to you? Being a woman--You're clearly doing it WRONG. Oh wait, so am I. :O
- Anna Haro
Wait, they're seriously trying to say she's making a pig of herself? EF that, these people have OBVIOUSLY not seen my sister and I at an "all you can eat crab legs" event... Lightweights!
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
Famous people - especially women - aren't supposed to eat. They're supposed to exist on air and the love of their fans! And if they MUST eat, it has to be gourmet! How dare they eat something us commoners would eat? We might start to think they were human or something.
- Nine
All you can ANYthing is WIN, but I must say crab legs on the east coast is top of my list. I used to go to Chesapeake Bay Seafood House. They have those in your neck of the woods, Tina?
- Josh Haley
That particular restaurant? No, but we've found a place that does a decent steamed king crab for a decent price. Sister, husband, and myself went the Friday after Thanksgiving and, um, we ate all the crab they had in the place. No lie, they ran out and brought us 2 lbs of boiled shrimp to make up for it!
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
That's my kind of girl, Tina! Make 'em bring out the secondary courses and teach them a lesson about maintaining their stock.
- Josh Haley
Lindsey, I will be a full-fledged female after the 16th of this month. Cheap surgery in Tijuana FTW! :P
- Anna Haro
Lindsey and Trish: because she has been the poster child for hypocrisy in the "embrace your body" movement. I wouldn't dream of sharing a similar article about someone who hadn't. (Well, unless it was really weird news, like a fashion model doing the same thing, haha.)
- Anthony Citrano
Is it wrong of me that I read that and then said to myself "They misspelled Carl's Jr."

"You know what’s never happened once? Even once, ever? No one has ever walked through a mall food court and seen a girl in her 20s shoveling fast food in her fat face and said, wow, what a sexy girl..." Yeah, that's positive. 1) JLH is not fat. 2) Way to encourage self-esteem in teen and young 20 y.o. women. It is funny to see that men post these links and find them interesting.
- Trish R
Nutshell: she ballooned out 40 lbs or so, then went on a big, loud, "embrace your body" campaign in which she did several interviews proclaiming that girls should embrace their natural body type (very, very admirable were it authentic). In the interviews, however, she insisted that she "wasn't fat" because she was a "size 2." [snicker] How on earth can you encourage girls to embrace their bodies when you so flagrantly lie about your own? Then, that didn't work, so she set about losing the weight.
- Anthony Citrano
Double Western burger with XL drink. That's what *I* eat at Carl's. No wonder she needs Proactiv.
- Jared B. Luther
The mere fact that there are photographers bothering to photo her or anyone at lunch in the first place is absurd. Lovely way to spend some time.
- Jen (SquirrelGirl)
Lindsey: I'll stick with my original estimate - and contention.
- Anthony Citrano
well, at least now I know how to get attention on FriendFeed. I sorta figured burgers would do it, but didn't know I needed a washed up teen star. ;p
- Anthony Citrano
I just found this thread and one thing I can say is Anthony go suck it. Sorry, Jennifer Love Hewitt is a beautiful woman and who gives a crap if she's not thin? And she's not a washed up teen star. She is still great in "Ghost Whisperer." You're a total jerk for posting this.
- Molly, "sorry"
