(linux_pro @ Mar. 14 2005,06:08) Holy Cow.. Talk about some beautiful shoes. Don't you guys call that "shoe Appreciation" on this forum? Ernest, if she actually bought me those shoes, than I would be quite happy with them and would wear them. I was only nervous that if they didn't fit properly, I'd be stuck with them no matter what. 8.5 US is my size, so if that's what she got, than that is good. Did she really buy these shoes? Excellent.

Do you really like them or says this because yout think she already bought them?
No, I like them. But did she really buy them?

Disons que quand je les vois, des adjectifs tels que "atroces", "horribles", "moches", "attristantes", "importables", "affreuses" ou encore "pas belles" (comme dirait mon fils) me viennent a l'esprit...

ernest, I need you to get a webcam and get over to Aubercy and we'll do a virtual deal.  The selection in these US Midwestern shoe stores is killing me.  Killin me.

In Berluti shops i had a row today as the guy didn't want me to take a picture in the shop.

I told him why as many shoes were in the shop window and I could take pictures of them.

He was stupid  =
he replied me it was the orders of the boss. I asked me if he knew THE REASON. He replied to protect from copy (I could have taken picture of shoes without he saw anything  or simply taken pictures from the outside with a good camera and a close up). And what about the shoes in the window? You are allowed to copy them?
So told me he just follow the rule. I asked him he he was obeying without thinking?

When I was in the shop, he looked at me from head to feet. I asked him why he was doing this and told me it was rather rude to do this and told him he should ask me why I was taking pictures instead of just telling me to delete them.

No more pictures from this type of shop. No more free ad.

That's funny - don't they have a website? Â With pics of shoes?
That's why i told the guy was STUPID. Anyway, people who buy Berluti will not buy a shoddy fake
