    Just in case anyone isn't aware, the preceding poster Guitar Geek, and Silver Shoes, and the Kobian dude are all the same Chris.

    My wife might have a pair like that. Too bad her feet are so small.

    The whole idea of choosing a new screen name on the iteration of PE was because I was trying to go incognito and not be recognized by anyone. It took me awhile to make up my mind whether to go with Scuba Geek or Guitar Geek. The only problem was, the first week, someone started a Grateful Dead thread, and I think my responses in said thread pretty much blew my cover almost immediately. Of course, it would have only been a matter of time before someone realized they've only ever met one person who uses the Farscape swearwords.

    Oh, and it's Kobaļan, btw.

    Yes I do. I'm onto my third pair of silver shoes now, officially designated Silver Shoes 2.1.

    Well, each is one of his multiple personalities. One has a childlike innocence, one is inappropriately seductive, etc.

    There was significantly more than merely a hole in my shoe at ProgDay, I'll tell you that much! That's why I finally had to retire that particular pair of shoes.
