Saturday 26th April
This business with the Iraqis and the fallen statues gives me ideas. My
western mind is ablaze with possibilities! Taliban, al-Qaeda, Hamas,
Fedayeen, you name 'em, could all be sentenced with shoe-based punishments.
Hijackers could be buried alive in mountainous slagheaps composed entirely
of old shoes. Merely naughty terrorists would be made to live in a maximum
security shoe. "Shock and awe" campaigns might begin with symbolic
shoe-cannons. An enormous bomb made to look like the foot of the Statue of
Liberty, filled with the disused and highly marinated tread of a million
hippie sandals, could be dropped on a Friday night soccer match to serve
notice of hostile intent and slight regard. Looters could be deterred with a
simple loafer. If I can get Homeland Security to adopt some of these
stances, the hope is that we can lower the terror alert color to cordovan.
