What do you mean I'm tying my shoes backwards
I am constantly retying my shoes (like twenty times a day, at least). Synthetic shoelaces have only made the problem worse. Whenever I complain,[url=http://woolrichswedense.gengfl.com/][b]woolrich arctic parka sweden[/b][/url], some advice-giver invariably says,[url=http://woolricharcticparkasweden.albirank.net/][b]woolrich arctic parka[/b][/url], don you use a double knot? /> double knots suck, that why! For one,[url=http://duveticaitalia.webmium.com/][b]piumini duvetica[/b][/url], it takes twice as long to tie it. Secondly,[url=http://woolricharcticparkauomooutlet.olimx.com/][b]Woolrich Parka Italy Outlet[/b][/url], I have a short attention span What was I talking about??? Oh yeah,[url=http://woolrichswedense.gengfl.com/][b]woolrich arctic parka outlet[/b][/url], double knots. They cut off circulation and make your shoes a nightmare to take off. (It a 50-50 chance anyway,[url=http://peutereyparkaonlineshopwomen.olimx.com/][b]peuterey parka online shop[/b][/url], whether I untie my shoes or just step on the back and pry them off the commonly used self-inflicted flat-tire method of taking your shoes off. Try that with a double knot.)
All that is true and all that is bullshit! The real reason I avoid the double knot and suffer through endless retying of my shoes is that I have an escalator-phobia. (What?) A long time ago in my youth,[url=http://merrellshoesonsaleformen.blogspot.com/][b]merrell shoes for men[/b][/url], I heard about a kid whose shoelaces got stuck in an escalator he couldn kick himself out, because he tied a double knot. (I realize that this incident may be an urban myth, but I heard he lost a foot! I not willing to risk it.)
At work last week, we were about to record a promo for the news, when I felt the familiar floppy whip against my ankles. I stopped, tied my shoes,[url=http://woolrichoutletfr.halod.com/][b]http://woolrichoutletfr.halod.com/[/b][/url], and bitched about my shoelaces always coming undone. The much-beloved Bay Area TV news anchor and all-around nice-guy,[url=http://rogervivierwedges2013.webstarts.com/][b]roger vivier online[/b][/url], Allen Martin, quipped,[url=http://monclerwesteherrendaunenjackebillig.albirank.net/][b]Moncler Jacken[/b][/url], should try a double knot. I just looked at him with a semi-evil eye. (I like Allen so I squashed my usual rant.)
Then,[url=http://monclerwesteoutletbillig.albirank.net/][b]billig Moncler Jacken Damen[/b][/url], something happened that changed my life. Michelle, the 23 year-old production assistant said, tying your shoes backward. /> I said. have been tying my shoes for almost forty years and have never heard anyone ever say anything about a right and wrong way to tie my shoes. /> she said,[url=http://woolricharcticparkasweden.albirank.net/][b]woolrich arctic parka sweden outlet[/b][/url], unfazed by my snarky tone. you loop it the other way, it won come untied as much. />I looked at Allen, whose curious face indicated that he too was out of the loop on this one. Then, she walked me though it. It felt weird, mostly because I had been tying my shoes one-way my entire life. (I felt like a recovering stroke victim relearning the simplest of childhood tasks.) I pulled and prodded to see if the lace would come loose. I couldn really tell if it worked, but I committed myself to giving it a try over the next few days. (It did take a while to get used to the new method. I hadn felt this awkward tying my shoes since I was a wee-little boy.)
I be damned! On Thursday,[url=http://duveticaitalia.webmium.com/][b]piumini duvetica outlet[/b][/url], October 11th 2012 at 43 years, 5 months, and 15 days old I went an entire day without retying my shoes. I couldn believe it!
I went online to see if this were some miracle fix, a secret passed on through generations,[url=http://merrellshoesonsaleformen.blogspot.com/][b]http://merrellshoesonsaleformen.blogspot.com/[/b][/url], like the Knights of Templar cautiously guarding the secrets of Christ. But no, IT ALL OVER THE PLACE! There a video that even explains the whole thing. It called a granny knot versus a reefer knot. Apparently,[url=http://giuseppezanottioutletonline.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti outlet Sale[/b][/url], looping it one way pulls the knot apart. When done the other way, motion actually tightens it.
