Hey! Remember those Old Gringo and Liberty Boots you wanted last year? …before the whole world told you to put your money back in your pocket? (Sad trombone, via Maggie)
Well, I’m giving you one last chance.
6pm sells mens, womens and kids cowboy boots at up to 75% off retail. Here’s your chance to be twice the rockstar at half the price (…or yeah, you could get a couple more pairs of the same Ariat’s yer wearing now. Geez.)
Your size is selling quick, better hurry.
If you know Michael Anthony, you know he is passionate about bootmaking.
If you don’t know Michael Anthony…let me tell you, he is PASSIONATE about bootmaking. He is precise in his craft. He is energetic… and very, very persistent. If he decides he needs moon dust to give his leather boots an unrivaled glow, then by God… he will get his moon dust! Even if he has to fill out 4 months of NASA paperwork, go to the moon himself… and bring the dust back to earth in his carry-on luggage.
(Of course, we all know that the “glow” comes from Michael’s caring dedication, not the moon dust.)
Read about Michael Anthony’s adventures “Tracing Lincoln’s Footprints.” Don’t forget to click through the photos of the boots and other presidential mementos. (Washington Post. Thursday, May 14, 2009)

I think I wore these shoes in a past life. Yes, I’m sure of it. I’m going to have to call Smitty, and see if they still fit me.
Oh, I lost my good wooden spoon, too… Have you seen it?

Customer: “I want a fearsome battle scene between a bear and a bull, with horns and claws and bloodletting. I want a patriotic tribute with stars and stripes, an eagle, swords, golden arrows and military artillery. I want a tangle of thorny roses. Lots of them. I want a spewing oil rig, lotto-sized dollar signs, rattle snakes and roosters… and I want the rooster tails to mimic the artistic energy of the aforementioned oil well. I want a lifelike portrait of my hunting dog ‘Champ.’ I want a herd of wild mustangs thundering across my cowboy boots. I want a hundred dollar bill so real looking I could get arrested for counterfeiting.”
Bootmaker: “Yer crazy.”
Peter Main: “What color do you want those roses?”
