anyone lose a shoe?

Published Jun. 12, 2009

Okay so the other day I was driving down the highway and I seen a shoe in the road.  Then a couple miles later I saw another (this one was a high heel while the other was a tennis shoe) THEN this morning on the same highway I was coming off the exit and seen another lone, solitary shoe. I was going slow so I could see it very good and it was a grey and yellow  jordan and it looked brand new. Now my question is this, where are the mates to these shoes? Is there some one legged person out there getting rid of these extra shoes? Some bad little kid throwing their parents shoes out the window when noone was looking? Some strange vortex sucking shoes out of passing cars? I wonder does anyone ever go back and look for these shoes? Do you ever wonder about the owner of these lost shoes or am I just weird?LOL

Maybe it's a bad gang initiation where the inductee has to steal one of every shoe on the block.

This must be how all the socks go missing too????

I wonder about that all the time. Like, how do you lose your shoe on the highway, people?! I also wonder about mattresses on the side of the road. Are people REALLY stupid enough to just dump them off? Maybe so. I saw one the other day that looked brand new and I wondered if it flew off the owner's car and they were too embarrassed to go retrieve it...

Don't people know you can take old mattresses to the convenience centers in wake county? It's still going to a landfill, but it's better than littering it on the side of the road...

I seen a bunch of clothes on the road one time and Then a truck turned around to pick them up. Apparently they had their laundry baskets on the back and the wind blew their clothes everywhere. At least they noticed before they got too far down the road

"am I just weird?". Maybe not, but I would never give 12,000 people an opportunity to answer that question. Actually, I find all sorts of strange stuff on the road while walking the dog.

roflmbo~!

I ALWAYS laugh out loud (literally) when I see a shoe in the middle of the road. I ponder the same.

LOL @ you saying some one legged person getting rid of their shoes! LMBO!!!! too funny!
