Walking Tall
I read this morning where a team of Australian women
just ran a hundred meter race in record time
and won 10,000 Australian dollars.
But- there's a catch.
The women all ran in 3-inch stilettos!
First of all, just let me say
that I have never owned a pair of stilettos.
Other than the fact that they might
make you appear taller,
have shapelier legs,
and drive your husband crazy-
they are basically worthless.
Except for maybe:
1. hammering a nail into the wall
2. prying the lid off a manhole
3. squishing a spider
4. impaling a mouse
5. playing galloping horsey
6. reaching the top shelf
7. looking ridiculously like an obese giraffe
8. a jousting tournament
9. home defense
10. home demolition
11. whack-a-mole
12. deflating balloons
13. a doorstop
14.Halloween costume
15. to freak out your mother-in-law
16. a meat tenderizer
17. a yard aerator
18. a hand plow
19. a play dough tool
20. to drink champagne from
21. to stand out in a group picture
22. to brag about on Facebook
23. as a planter
24.as a modern sculpture
25. a toilet paper holder
26. a flower press
27. as book ends
28. to pop bubble wrap
29. knocking out teeth
30. cracking walnuts
Wow! On second thought-
I just might get myself
a pair of stilettos!
They are 30 tools in one!
Who knew?
