"..but, what makes the man, is his shoes" [said with sharp hand gesture]

December 29th 2006 06:52
On the first day, god made black leather sneakers. He saw this was good, so he sold them at $100 a pop. I hear he used cheap labour in the process.

Perfect for those long walks to Double Bay.

God saw much mileage in these sneakers, so on the second day he created a brown (soft leather) pair. These were to last even longer than the first, as to prove he is the one almighty.

I use these for the coastal walks - either to Watson's Bay or Coogee.

On the third day, He noticed much migration had occured. As to make the human race appreciate its place of rest, the Timberland boot was created. Upon wearing, an ordinary human was to be easily bogged down by these brown shoes.


Used for looking working class in formal environments. Be sure not to tread on anyone's toes when dancing in these.

On the fourth day, He decided upon a variation of the sneaker, known to some as the flat white. These were light on the feet - with thin soles, and were said to be made from angel wings.

Good for going to the local and ordering a flat white, or if its nighttime get your groove on.

He saw much pleasure being had in these reconstructed angel wings, so on the fifth day he made a pair for himself. Upon realising he prefers slumming around in sandals, he sold them to the human race.

I think these ones are for sprinting, but I use them for more casual walks. Damn they're comfy.

On the sixth day, He realised the week was coming to an end, so he set his little helpers about doing administrative tasks for the general good. For this task, He made a schmick pair of Florshiems, designed by his head bean-counter.

For office work and hangouts of other office workers. Also for general formal occasions.


On the seventh day, God needed a rest. Instead, he created chronic fatigue syndrome in the process of making something trendy for the hopelessly handsome sons and brothers of the earth. They were to go up to the ankles and have a strap on them.

I use these for the times where I feel like I can still skateboard, also for the local pub.
I think I can chuck out my old pairs now...

Hey Opto,

You forgot the lunch break: when G- in dire need of a napkin, accidentally snatched a fig leaf still attached to Eve's loin string exposing her garden fruits and pissing her off royally. To pacify her, G- had to create butt flaps from left over soft leather he created on day two.

Eve was delighted with the matching ensemble and wore them often, and feeling cocky, she exhibited a lot more wiggle-wiggle when she walked, which ramped up Adam's interest.

A bonus from the incident, Adam thought the butt flap was so hot, he rode Eve until the planet was overflowing with plenty of offspring, years ahead of G-'s schedule. The whole episode actually turned out to be a win win situation for everybody.

Love the premise of your story. Good stuff.

So, the new atheist in light of your story would be those with unclad feet?
