"Useless Knowledge": In ancient Greece, prostitutes wore sandals with nails studded into the soles so that their footprints would leave the message "Follow me."
I kind of like that all on it's own, despite the prostitutes part. It's very fascinating on both sides really.
Ok, did that sound confusing? That is how I talk, and it's quite frustrating when I'm talking to people that don't understand me or act like they understand me. Let me be clear, since I tend to process things on at least two different levels. First, the fact that prostitutes did that, is very interesting. Second, just the thought of doing that alone, prostitutes or not, is extremely interesting. I actually find the concept really appealing, and even more so since I wear "gladiator" sandals. The main downfall of doing that in this day and age in this suburban part of Arizona, is that there isn't a whole lot of sand to walk through. Regardless, this has sparked some inspiration in me.
