My shoe!
Adding to the list of classic shoe humorous real-life events, an Iraqi threw both of his shoes at Dubya on his last visit there as President. This is about the rudest thing an Iraqi can do, according to the article. I imagine it's akin to flipping him the bird or mooning him. He got a prize, and naches from basically the entire sane world. Add mine.
Kevin remembers the first classic shoe humorous real-life event to which I allude. It's a heartwarming holiday tale, now almost five years in the past. When we first moved to the Valley, we had very little money, and it was near Christmas. On an impromptu drive one afternoon, we stopped in to the Big Lots, a seconds/closeout store, and found mistletoe and some other things we wanted. However, upon checkout we discovered that neither of us had brought a wallet or money. We left our things with the cashier and scurried away in dishonor. Once we were outside of the store, we quickly cycled through embarrassment and amusement. "How did we think we were going to pay?" Kevin monologued. "With MY SHOE?" Ever after, "MY SHOE" is a sort of unit of currency, always good for a laugh.
