I need to get another pair asap. I started wearing them down in the boatyards in South Florida. Gotta be the most comfortable footwear I've ever owned.

 

[SamSpade]

Damn. NOW they'll be collector's items. For plastic.

I try to avoid clothing that, when heat is applied, becomes shrink wrap. An instructor in Aviation Aircrew Candidates School pointed out that some synthetic clothing, as commonly found in tight fitting undies, say, could do that to parts of your antomy even through our fireproof nomex flight suits.

Heck...I'd say 90% of my clothing has become shrink wrap over the last 10 years, without any heat being applied.

yeah I do not understand, the company says ' we are not going out of business' but shuts down the last of there manufacturing plants

Things expand when they are hot. You're not getting bigger, you're getting hotter!

Sigh....so this didn't strike you as odd? You thought that that a company that beat earnings estimates and is profitable would close manufacturing on its profit center?

The company announced the outsourcing of additional manufacturing and the closure of a distribution facility in Mexico Tuesday while reporting a second-quarter profit of $30.4 million, or 35 cents per share.

Crocs is also closing less productive retail stores as leases expire and focusing more on online sales.

Asking for a friend... Is it odd that she can look at you and the ceiling at the same time?
