Off-roading

I have new boots, and I imagine that they give me some idea of what it's like to drive an SUV. They add some height and allow me to maintain traction when I go off paved paths in the snow. While they're kind of bulky, there's a feeling of power I get from walking in them that I don't get from ordinary sneakers.

Unlike an SUV, they don't increase America's dependence on foreign oil or bring us closer to global environmental catastrophe.

I need to get some boots, myself. Missing Texas, yet? I am.

Yeah. Lots of nice people here, but Waggener Hall is home to me. On the weather front, I look fondly on hot days in Texas and girls wearing skirts.

Max, you haven't seen these boots.
