After I finished snarfing my milk across the table, I had to clean it up AND apologize for laughing at "a beautiful act."

Who knew crew level hosiery could be so soxy, I mean sexy.
Dunno Hack, but I think this one is the one to beat!

I got an email from a nudist group that is having a sock drive. They are collecting new, still in the package, white tube socks for men in the homeless shelter. I thought it funny that nudists were collecting clothing. I also thought it funny they wanted white tube socks. Who wears white tube socks? I guess homeless men do.


Hey Agent, I thought your road ID socks would have your personal information embroidered on them. What good are they if they don't have contact information on them and blood type etc.?

It protects him from ID theft in case someone wants his socks.

If I won some Darn Tough Vermont Socks, I'd have a darn good sock story

I have lucky golf socks with a "hole in one".

Okay, I'm going to make this interesting... I'll do a metric century on a trainer, for each like I get on my sock post (if I win the socks). And, I'll post about each one.

One like for the Agent. Nothing like a person willing to work for a pair of socks.

The only info on them was XL. The last thing I would ever want is to get hit by some idiot, then have a paramedic play with my feet.

I got the interactive ID so, if I'm incapacitated, I'm going to add instructions on how to properly beat the driver of the vehicle. Even using my new pair of Darn Tough Vermont socks (by putting some rocks in them).

When I crashed and broke my hip some angel getting off work at the orthopedic clinic stopped and put a blanket under my head, took off my shoe and played with my feet. She said: "See how one foot is pointed straight ahead and the other is pointed backwards? That's not a good sign." I really didn't enjoy it much at the time but appreciated the attention. At least they didn't cut my socks off me like they did my brand new bib shorts.
