Today's image is a tribute to that saviour of the hot sand walker and promoter of inappropriate footwear, Monsieur Phillippe Filop.

Flippin' heck. What's afoot? I must show The Shoe Queen.
Ah, the flip-flop, that ever-so-uncomfortable rubber sandal that feels wierd between your toes and tends to slip off at the worst times, like when climbing stairs or riding the ferris wheel at the fair (you don't wanna know). I remember calling them "thongs" until somebody invented "butt floss underwear" (as my 13 year old so eloquently puts it). Now the "thong" has a whole new meaning...
Lee, you're best off not wearing them anyway.. I've never seen a man who looks good wearing a thong (either kind) :-)
these were called "zories" or "thongs" in my sunny california childhood. my son is always stealing mine at the beach.
Thongs.
Reminds me of an unpleasant incident at some life drawing classes. It involved a well-endowed, seventy-five year old male model we'd hired.
He turned out (in a manner of speaking) to have a penchant for shocking what he called "the ladies" on the last night of the six week course.
I leave the precise details to your imagination (and my therapist).
Ask any second grader - they'll tell you thongs are things you thing when your two front teeth are missing...and the thought of Phillippe Philop will make me chuckle every time I pass a pair of his legendary footwear.
Even though I live by the ocean, I don't like wearing flip-flops. I can't stand the way they feel between my toes...
As for me, I go barefoot on the sand!
I like this photo, though, very summery...
today is my spouse's birthday and he received a pair of flip flops with beer bottle openers embedded in the bottom of the sole... very handy beach attire.
