Buying new shoes for the little ones is no longer a dread chore at Wally World now. They've got these neat shoes that come with a free FRED (Flashing Rear End Device for the benefit of newcomers). I was able to walk away with two of them just for the asking, I guess the salesgirl was intrigued by my proposed use for them. She even gave me ones that hadn't been activated yet so they'll blink for months to come (should prove interesting as my layout is in the bedroom, "Honey would you put that THING in the roundhouse or somethin', I'm tryin' to sleep.")
