an aerial burial

these are my shoes. i bought them around the year 2001. i was wearing these shoes when i ran 2 miles for the first time ever. i wore them in my first 5 & 10k races. i wore them when i thought i was going to be a marine. i wore them when i pretended like i was a marine in the volkslauf mud run. they have served me well. they deserve to be laid to rest with honor.

this is my 'hood. i've lived in palms 90034 for 4 years and 3.5 weeks. these are the streets i roam at night, the nonexistent parking spots for which i'm eternally searching, and the many active dog-walkers milling about.

these are my shoes - and a pair of kat's shoes that were retired as well - which received their well-deserved honorable aerial burial late last night.

everyone will know this is mine and kat's territory now!
enter at yer own peril...

Did you know that drug dealers mark their territory (and what type of drugs they sell) by hanging shoes up on power lines like that? Congratulations--I'm going to come and arrest you, now :)

so Mush, based on these shoes, i'd say Wenders doesnt sell crack, but just the cheap powder cocaine?
