[Jim Ray <jim AT neuse.net>]

i picked up some ecco shoes from dsw at crossroads today.  marshalls did 
not have any in stock.  the ones i got said casual yet looked plenty 
dressy for me.

my wife tried to talk me into getting two pairs: one casual, one dress. 
 nah.  one will do.  ecco is a little pricey yet looked well made and 
comfortable.

now, i don't have to go shopping for another ten years.  yee haaa!

Regards,

Jim
