Almost a perfect afternoon on the deck....until Skippa started a fight with my sneakers.

[OAITW r.2.0]

4. Never....he hates 'em, but more clamp and look to see what I think of it. He's kinda annoying sometimes..

in a "pay-attention-to-me" sorta way. The sneakers are my beloved Stan Smiths....been wearing them since the 70's. Not the same pair, of course. When Skippa was a puppy, he gnawed both heals and the tongue. Sneakers never forgave him of that transgression.
