    if you do not want to look at my feet, just look up and see the sky, and I will wear what makes me comfortable and safe.

    There is a saying that goes, "any welder one day will become a great dancer". Definitely applies to welding in flipflops.

    Real men just wear their socks while driving or barefoot.

    I've been known to. Of course that's after out in the snow or rain and my feet are soaked. Turn on the floor vents and heat and let those suckers dry out.

    That sizzle sound will never leave me. Burned my hand pretty bad in Iraq. The sound of flesh cooking is etched deep in my head.
