Are my shoes "nasty?"

I purchased these shoes about ten years ago while working a summer job at a country club. I didn't wear them all that often and they must have looked pretty new because many other pro-shop and bagroom staff kept asking if I had gotten new shoes. I had heard female colleauges talking about dragging their shoes through a sandbox to get rid of the "new" look, so I took mine out to one of the bunkers to make them look a little less new. People still kept commenting on my "new" white shoes, though.

Now ten years later, my brother commented on how "nasty" my shoes looked! They are a little worn in, but I'm not sure I'd call them nasty. Would you? They are washable and I do run them through my dishwasher a few times a summer.

I love my new mini-chopper!

I purchased this new mini-chopper on sale after Christmas for only 8 USD! Summertime means lots of chicken and tuna salad for me, and the preparation is so much quicker. I can chop an onion and some celery in seconds! Clean up is a breeze as the chopper bowl is dishwasher safe. This is one new appliance I don't want to be without!

Say it ain't so! Popular Fieldhouse Crest W License Plates are gone!

Say it ain't so!

I've been thinking about getting one of the fancy Fieldhouse Crest W license plates (http://www.news.wisc.edu/8233) for my car for a while now. However, when looking at the Department of Transportation's Web Site, it seems that Bucky Badger Plates are now back. Sad. http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/drivers/plateguide/uw-logos.htm

I wish there would have been a wide press release about this so I could have gotten my plates before the change.

Please write to try to get the Fieldhouse Crest W plates back for the next cycle of plates!
