This is where my stupid new dress has traveled over the past 25 days...

Can you be "en route" to buffalo when you've already technically passed through buffalo?

I'm now taking bets on the date of actual arrival... I have September 8th locked up.

You can also bet on if it will cross the Mississippi. My money's on yes.

It's the BUFFA-GAME

Take the prefix 'buffa' and attach any word that begins with the letter 'lo'...

For example:


BUFFALOMEIN


BUFFALOCUST


BUFFALOAF!


It's fun!!! All the kids are doing it, and by 'all the kids' I mean the ones that don't get out much.

what if this happened...


"HEY! I have a great idea! Lets steal a cell phone from an innocent Japanese student... that way she'll have to pay for a new one, loose all her contacts that she ever made in the US, and be unable to contact her family in Japan for days!

"No wonder I'm your friend! You think of the funnest things ever! Hey, while we're at it lets see if this register drawer opens. Ooooh! and also lets try and break in the basement door... it might be a good time!"


that would be some crazy shit.

triflin hos wanna steal my man


Actually, no, they want to steal my money. Which is even worse!
Any knowledge on these lovely lasses will earn you a plentiful reward.

stranger strikes again

Well... I got my second bouquet today, and this one came with a name....

Fellers... take a little lesson from "BOB" if you want to impress the ladies.

I'm just saying....

Some of you may have noticed that I have this BIG NIFTY BRICK WALL...

big necklaces

Something I'm really into of late is GIANT necklaces, like fucking giant necklaces.

Here are some inspirations...




bad.

trouble makers

I love a trouble maker, that is for sure... but when they infiltrate the store and try and break in my register and succeed in stealing my employees cell phone? Well you better believe I will blow them up.

This is a warning... bring the cell phone back today no questions asked or I will post your stupid little faces all over the neighborhood, the myspace page, craigslist casual encounters, police headquarters, facebook, and drop flyers out of a fucking helicopter.


don't believe me? I dare you to come back in the store... we can have a little chat woman to woman.

Stay tuned!

friday nites @ firebrand

Jessica discovered a few things this week:

1. firebrand is pretty rad for hanging out.

2. people are more likely to buy shoes when it's after 8pm and they are holding an ice cream cone.

3. 80's music makes ya wanna dance

sooo... in an effort to have some fun and bring all these ideas together, I'm offering to you good people "FIREBRAND FRIDAY"

come by, eat some ice cream, listen to some cool 80's tunes, byob, shop til you drop whatever.... I'll be here, do you need another reason?

arch support bad... flexible shoes good!

hello! if I hear one more grandma coming in FIREBRAND asking about arch support I'm going to put her over my knee...


GET WITH THE TIMES!

Science is discovering that our feet actually work pretty damn good (thanks evolution!) We don't need all this fancy shmancy arch-support-pronate-correcting-triple-insole-super-traction-mumbo-jumbo. In fact, all that crap is reversing the progress our pretty little feet have made over the millions of years us humans have been standing on them.



I guess the more flexible a shoe, and the less it "corrects" your foot the better it is! Now that doesn't mean walk barefoot, shoes are still nice for walking on sharp surfaces and keeping you feet clean. Not to mention they can look pretty shwanky if you buy them from FIREBRAND.



So what's my point? Throw out your dads stupid white cross-training sneakers (you know-the ones that match his tubesocks) and tell him to get hip and get healthy! And if you grandma even thinks about coming in here and asking me about arch support tell her to wear her padded panties.

adidas olympic tribute

check these little tasties out...












"Released in 1987, the Adidas Conductor Hi was once at the top of it’s game and was worn by Patrick Ewing during his New York Knick days. It is now 2008 and the Conductor Hi seen above has been designed to pay homage to the Seoul 1988 Olympics Basketball Game Final in which USSR defeated Yugoslavia 76-63.

The color-way is simple, but there are details deriving from the Olympics. For starters, the 1988 Seoul Olympics logo is seen at the back of the shoe and details about the Final game is seen on the inside of the shoe."
