Shoes Shoes Shoes



Been in fabulous las vegas at the world shoe association, can you imagine thousands of al bundys all talkin' feet!
have really enjoyed myself though,
worked hard, smoozing like i have never before,
and i have to tell you,
michele and I are the hottest people in the shoe business-
there really is no competition except bald guys,
but we are having fun.
went to the private party with the show, open bar, great food, then a concert for about 200 people, legends of rock n roll,
chuck barry, jerry lee lewis, booker t and the mg's, little richard,
and the m.c. was jim belushi,
its a fundraiser for 'soles for souls'
we danced, me and giorra, the 78 year old manager of the factory in israel,
and the girls from abbadaba's in atlanta,
and of course, tom and michele-it was a rockin time!
the next night michele and i threw an impromtu brand party at the tequilla bar,
we had people from every brand, germans, israili's, surfers, crocs, etc
it was so much fun!
rick played an extra hour for us, oh, btw, when i was checking into the hotel i heard my name, and i looked up and it was rick,
getting to be harder and harder to hide in this world!
runner up in the design award, that stunk, but received an awesome gift of a silver encrusted with diamonds shoe pendant
won 265 on the blackjack tables, hit 19 or 20 almost every hand,
almost won the parley on the super bowl game,
finished working and made it to the sports book to watch the last quarter,
pretty rowdy casino's last night!
off to the venetian to relax with friends,
78 degrees here, not rushing to the airport just yet!
just need to get home to get back on a plane sunday and return with partying collegues in tow, and mike and philly steak and cheese,
its gonna be fun!
