I have to say, I bought a pair of these Nike Free shoes and they really are super comfortable for just walking around in. I don't know if I'll ever try to run in them, as it's supposed to be like running barefoot, and the last time I did that I was running on Kailua Beach 10 years ago and gashed my foot open on a piece of glass (more duct tape :) I'll stick to my New Balance and Nike Air for logging in the miles.

All Consuming (in the sidebar) has become part of the 43things web site. Check 'em both out. You don't have to have a blog to use them.

From today's Honolulu Advertiser:

Getting Rock Fever? It's probably because Hawaii is the most isolated population center on the face of the earth. Hawaii is 2,390 miles from California; 3,850 miles from Japan; 4,900 miles from China; and 5,280 miles from the Philippines.

And you wonder why my blog subtitle is "ramblings from a remote landmass" :)
