Dearest Lorelei:
What kind of shoes should I wear to a butt-kicking contest? Do I need a combination of sturdiness and lightness? Or should I concentrate more on style and fashion?

Dear Confused in Hiberia ha ha ha,

Always style and fashion!!! I cannot stress this enough. Let me explain.

It's like when your Momma said you never wanna be caught dead or in an accident in dirty underwear. Well just on the off chance that you might get your butt kicked in the contest, you wanna go out in STYLE. Either way, win or lose the contest, you come out the winner in my book! (Not that you would get your butt kicked, but one must always be prepared for the unexpected.)

Dear Lorelei.

Are sandals over socks acceptable in any circumstance?

Dearest Anthony,

I have had that exact same question for all my years in Simcountry. I preach on shoes, I post on shoes, I've asked for shoes....NADA! I'm posting subliminal messages to the GMs daily to make them eat, drink and sleep shoes and they still not getting it. OUR SIM PEEPS NEED SHOES!!!! Oh we gots clothing, cars, jewelry. We have soybeans, for Gawd's sake. Yet..... we have no shoes. They could serve as a duo purpose in this game - used as a means to protect our feet and to be used by our militaries as weapons.

So, I beseech the GMs to please hear our need!

Thank you, Anthony, for echoing my sentiments, exactly.

Dearest Maclean,

You ask, "Lorelei: Rofl, Yeah, my Ma said that too. Did yours say "If everybody jumped off a cliff, would you?"

Yes, she said that all the time. My answer was Yes, if I saw someone wearing a pair of shoes that I wanted. I would jump right after them.

Dearest Crafty,

I had to take some time to respond to your inquiry, as the thought was so disturbing, I was traumatized. I even had a restless night last night. I will say this after much thought....a big HELL NO to wearing sandals with socks on!

OMG! The ONLY pardon I give you for even doing this and I'm sure you do since you asked, is that you don't actually put your socks over your sandals. You being a Brit I would have expected even this, seeing as y'all do everything backwards and weird over there.

I'm watching you, buddy boy. You already #3 on my list!

Oh, well. You never know, they might put one in the next new update or any time soon. Then we all can jump on them. It might just as well fix our depression problems after all. It'll be cool. Just for laughs.

Dear Crafty,

It is quite apparent now that I need to revisit your great country and make some MUCH NEEDED changes! I've seen such gawdawfulness over here, too. That was probably a direct result of British influence (SCOWLS).

I am relieved to know that you do not commit such horrors. But......

You still on da list. You said I had a big butt and honkers for feet. And you are a SPURS fan. You in trouble - ALWAYS. :-P

Dear Anthony,

Yes, I am lobbying for this change to the game at once. But I am leery, I ask for simple shoe corps......this could grow into much much more. Look what happened to changes in war!!! Well, that is just the chance that we shoe lovers have to take. Thank you for your shoe contribution, Anthony. We must band together for CHANGE!

Thank you.

If you want to create your country as shoe, it'll take alot of time and adjustment. It'll be worth it if you like it. Then that will upset others, but hey, it'll be good for you and it's your choice if you want to do it.

Lorelei

Dear Aaron,

Just as in love, it IS better to have bought and not worn than to have never bought at all. Even at the cost that the shoe will one day hurt, because it no longer fits right, thus devastating you.

As to the other, it is ALWAYS best to be prepared for the unknown. I am currently buying and stockpiling ALL the shoes I can because after the great end of the Mayan calendar.....and doomsday, there may no longer be shoe stores for me to frequent!!! Never a waste. Always a preparation of sorts!
