    Spectator Shoes

    Now that's a sin, such a fine pair of shoes :mad: . I was watching them since the moment they came up literally. If anyone comes across a pair of size 8.5-10 captoes or spectators in brown and white ventilated or not, and you don't want them, give me a head up...;)

    The fate of Edward Hopper's "Gas" station

    I go out to the Cape every summer, I've been to Four Seas, its good, always crowded though. There's a ton of other places just as good, my favorite is Smitty's in Falmouth.
