It makes me lighter, so that I can glide upon the snow; kind of like Legolas the Elf in Lord of the Rings.

Actually, we just ran down to watch JR snowboard and I just whipped them on. I do wear boots if I know I'm going to be trudging through the high stuff.

Gino, only a non-resident of snow country would notice the tennis shoes (don't call 'em athletic shoes here).

i'm guilty.

short story, mocha momma:
feb,85, went to chicago to visit relation. my cousin warned me NOT to walk the four blocks to the bar with 'those' shoes. a pair of converse all-stars, the kind without a sole to speak of? made of thin canvas? it was all i had.
'naw, i'll be fine' i told him.
he just laughed his arse off, and said well, lets go then , and teach you lesson.

i learned that lesson well.
and cousin STILL talks about it.
