Shoe Throwing Part 2
This shoe-throwing business intrigues me. Think about it. Did the bloke who did it plan it in advance ? Because if not, did he throw his best shoes at Bush ? If he had planned it in advance, he would have worn an old pair of gardening shoes on the assumption he wasn't going to get them back. But if it was a spur of the moment thing, he might easily have thrown away a £90 pair of Clarke's. OK, it was in a good cause, but men's shoes aren't cheap nowadays. And if it was an impulse thing, would he have done it if he had been wearing wellies ? Or Doc Marten's ? All those laces to undo. Someone would have twigged he was up to something and perhaps beaten him to it. And another thing - what is happening to his shoes ? Did he get them back ? I bet the bloody CIA has got them, testing them for explosives or the Ebola virus. Watch out for them on eBay - "The Very Shoes Thrown at George Bush", they'll make a fortune. But watch out for fakers too, there will be hundreds of pairs "similar to those throw at the President". This could develop into a whole industry, making reproductions of the corset thrown at Britney Spears, or the bra thrown at Madonna.....any ideas ?

Interesting train of thought...I wouldn't mind people throwing bank notes at me..if I could choose, of course, or perhaps even shoes: of the right size and style.
