The Etiquette Grrls' Q & A Archive: October
2001
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
I have a situation that I need your advice
on. I came out to my car evening to discover that another driver
had rudely blocked in myself and another driver. There was absolutely
no way for either of us to get our cars out. I went back into my
apartment building to see if I could find the culprit and ask them
to move their car. When I couldn't find the person, I went back
out to the parking lot and promptly called my landlord to complain
about the situation. This is the second time in less than a week
that a situation like this has occurred--and I believe it occurs
in part because he does not enforce the parking policy of one parking
pass per household, all others towed.
While discussing the situation with another
neighbor, the guilty party arrived at the scene. She didn't apologize
and then claimed that she had only been parked there for five minutes.
In fact, she had been parked there for at least 20 minutes (for
15 of which I had been standing in parking lot).
I explained to her that she shouldn't have been
parked there at all since she was not a tenant of the building.
Regardless of whether she was parked for a moment or a week, she
shouldn't park in the tenants' lot, and she shouldn't have blocked
me in.
Well, a verbal argument ensued. She proceeded
to stand nose-to-nose with me and then refused to move her car until
I apologized to her. I called her a nasty name (a witch with a "B").
In short, the police had to come and ask the woman to move her car.
My question is, how does one handle a stranger
who is so inconsiderate and rude? How does one address such grievous
behavior?
Boxed In
Dear Boxed In,
Oh, you Poor Dear! It is beyond the EGs' Comprehension
why people who do not know how to Park Their Damn Cars are Allowed
to Drive! (Don't even get the EGs started on people who don't know
how to DRIVE Their Damn Cars--they're even worse! And, inexplicably,
Quite a Lot of them reside in the Boston Area.) It is not acceptable
to park in any manner which Boxes In other people's cars, and to
do so when one has no right to be Parked There At All is particularly
Maddening! We think, in your place, Dear Reader, you did the right
thing to call your landlord (who really should Step In when this
sort of thing happens) and, in his absence, to explain to the Errant
Parker why she could not park in that space. You didn't elaborate
on the argument itself, so we can't really comment on what should
have happened there... or how we might have tried to Avoid Letting
It Get to the Name-Calling Stage... but we think it's probably safe
to say that if we had been in Your Shoes, we would have Called the
Cops the minute she Got Hostile with us. Nobody is allowed to stand
nose-to-nose with the EGs and Yell At Us, Dear Reader, and you shouldn't
let anyone do it to you, either! Even if she did Move Her Car, you
could've Taken Down the License Plate and reported that she had
Threatened You. We might also suggest you ask Your Landlord to be
a bit more Vigilant on the Parking Policy... we're not Lawyers,
but it seems to us you might be able to Withhold Rent if the parking
space you pay for is Frequently Occupied (or rendered inaccessible)
by Someone Else. You might check if that is an option for you. We
wish you Good Luck, and we hope you never have to deal with This
Horrid Woman again!!
Yours truly,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
As I'm sure you know, classroom conditions are
sometimes more conducive to sleep than to learning. A dull lecture
in a warm stuffy room the morning after a night of insufficient
sleep can cause a student to find herself nodding off in class,
usually in full view of the lecturer. So what is the most tactful
thing to do in this situation? Should one slip out of the class
in search of caffeine? Rest one's head on the desk? Leave the class
in favour of a nap?
Sleepy Student
Dear Sleepy Student,
Ah, yes, the EGs are Familiar with This Problem.
We've encountered it so frequently, Dear Reader, that we have several
Tips for You:
1) Try really hard not to take any early-morning
classes. The EGs were Quite Successful in this pursuit whilst we
were In College!
2) Get some of those Caffeinated Mints, and keep
them with you Everywhere. It is much less disruptive to have a Mint
from a Wee Box you keep in Your Backpack than to run out in search
of the nearest Double Espresso.
3) If you need Coffee, grab a cup on the way
to class. Don't wait for the class to start if you think you Might
Be Tired. It's really Not Good Form to leave any class, lecture
or seminar, in search of Food or Drink, unless you have a Medical
Condition and your life depends upon it.
4) Try to sit in a Cool Part of the Room, perhaps
Near a Window that is Slightly Open. This usually helps one to Stay
Awake.
5) If you are so tired that None of the Above
Methods will work, you should probably Not Go to Class at All. Now,
the EGs are not Condoning Skipping--we just think that it's better
to Not Go to Class at All, and Suffer the Consequences, than to
go and either a) fall asleep or b) disturb everyone else by leaving
halfway through. The EGs can say, as one of us has taught undergraduate
classes whilst in Graduate School, that it is Really, Really Irritating
when a student Falls Asleep in Class. (So much so that this EG's
solution to a habitually nodding-off student was to stand up very
quietly and write on the board, "On the count of three, everybody
yell 'WAKE UP, JONATHAN'"--trust us, it worked Very Well. But
the kid who Fell Asleep was failing the class anyway and generally
was Irksome and Impolite to EG, so she felt Justified in Teaching
Him a Lesson. We're sure, Dear Reader, that you enjoy Wonderful
Relationships with Your Teachers and that they would Never Do This
Sort of Thing to Embarrass You. But do watch out.) Therefore, Dear
Reader, we recommend you Try Your Best to Avoid This Problem!
With best wishes,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
Well, I'm afraid that words just would not adequately
express how much I love your site! I am thinking of making it my
home page.
The question is about sympathy cards. Specifically,
a friend of mine recently had a death in the family. He works in
the same office as I do, and as office residents are wont to do,
one person bought a card and passed it around for the rest of us
to sign with our thoughts, à la a birthday card.
I passed on the group sentiment, mostly because
the only word I could think to describe it was "tacky."
What do you lovely ladies think?
Thanks as always!
Julia
Dear Julia,
It is difficult, indeed, when one sees Well-Meaning
People doing something that could be Construed as Tacky. In this
case, the colleague of yours who bought the card and passed it around
probably was Trying to Be Nice-- and indeed, we all know that there
are people who just Wouldn't Get Around to sending their own Sympathy
Note, so this was a way to give everyone a chance to send their
condolences, albeit not in the Most Traditional Manner. One of the
EGs once received this kind of Sympathy Card, when she worked in
a Very Informal Office, and she appreciated it very much-- most
people wrote little notes that were very sweet indeed. It wasn't
as if anyone could have attended Her Grandfather's Funeral, and
it was simply nice to know that People Cared. (We would Draw the
Line, though, at any kind of Electronic Sympathy Card-- we've seen
them Online, and Words Cannot Express our Abject Horror. Pen must
be Taken to Paper when one wishes to Express Condolences.) So, Dear
Reader, in conclusion, while our personal habit is to send a Wee
Note of Condolence on Our Own Initiative (and on Our Own Writing
Paper), and while we agree the "Everybody sign this card!"
thing is best suited to Happy Occasions like Birthdays, we would
be grateful to receive Even the Smallest Expression of Sympathy
if we were The Bereaved One. And therefore, we wouldn't have refused
to sign the card. We'd have simply gone ahead and sent a Separate,
Additional Note of Condolence on our own.
We are so glad, Dear Reader, that you've found
our site and that you like it, and we'd be truly thrilled to be
Your Home Page!
All best,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
Thank you for your website. Please help me with
a Christmastime quandary.
I live in an apartment complex which houses
a few buildings. There is a caretaker who lives "onsite"
in an apartment in one of the buildings. He heads a team that consists
of other service people who do not live in the complex. (I guess
that makes them more like part-time employees.)
What kind of Christmas gift is appropriate for
the caretaker and his team? If I sent a large hamper to the caretaker
and addressed it, "To so-and-so and your entire team, Merry
Christmas, etc.," how can I be sure everyone gets to enjoy
the goodies? What should I send instead?
Thanking you in anticipation of your response,
Christmas Cheerer
Dear Christmas Cheerer,
We think your idea of sending a Hamper of Gifts
is Splendid! Although you can't ever, really, be sure that the gifts
will be Shared (sans Infiltrating the Caretaking Team and Spying
Upon Them, that is), as long as you mark it clearly for the Entire
Team, the Caretaker should be Morally Obligated to Share. (If not,
he is Selfish and Horrid. But if that turns out to be the unfortunate
case, it will not be Your Fault.) Perhaps you could bring it by
In Person and say, clearly, "This is for you AND YOUR TEAM."
Or, even better, bring it by In Person when more than just the Caretaker
is Around.
The EGs must also say we Quite Admire how you've
Thought About This in Advance! Heavens, the EGs love Christmas,
but we will probably Find Ourselves doing our Gift-Shopping in Mid-December!
Sincerely yours,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
First, please allow me to express my gratitude
for brightening many, many months of Mondays since I found your
site.
I find myself in need of your advice. I am a
Smoker. I am aware that this puts me in the minority and I do try
to be a "considerate smoker"; i.e., I stand downwind from
non-smokers whenever possible, I do not exhale into the faces of
others, and I ensure that the cigarette butt is completely out and
not left smoldering in an ashtray when I abandon it. My question
for you is this: how does one respond, if at all, to strangers who
take it upon themselves to approach me and say, "That's not
good for you," or, "You really shouldn't smoke,"
or who say nothing but pointedly and dramatically cover their nose
and mouth while walking past me on an uncrowded sidewalk with a
brisk breeze blowing?
To those who say nothing, I simply pretend not
to notice. To those who verbally chastise me, I smile and either
cock my head or say, "Yes, I know," when what I want to
say is, "Mind your own business," or, on other occasions,
"Listen lady, you've got no idea what's going on in my life
right now, so...." I would never dream of walking up to someone
eating deep-fried foods and telling them they're going to give themselves
a heart attack, or any such thing.
Please, please, grrls, what is one to do?
Smoke Coming Out of My Ears
Dear Smoke Coming Out of My Ears,
Well, aren't All These Other People Being Rude!
The last time the EGs Checked, as long as you weren't in a No-Smoking
Zone or Under the Legal Age to Buy Cigarettes, it was within Your
Rights to Smoke! If you personally abhor cigarette smoke, by all
means try to avoid standing Downwind of A Smoker, but really, it
is Entirely Uncouth to make Editorial Comments on Someone Else's
Habits! It would be The Height of Rudeness (THOR) to tell someone
who happens to be Un Peu Overweight that the ice cream they're enjoying
is Not Good for Them, wouldn't it? Maybe it isn't good for them,
but it is not Your Place to Point This Out!
But the EGs digress. You asked us not to comment
on This Behavior, but rather upon how you should Respond to It.
We think you should not resort to being Rude in Return. We might
be tempted, in your place, to Feign Shocked Surprise, and say, "OH
MY GOD, this is BAD for me? YOU'RE KIDDING! I had NO IDEA! Could
you share more of Your Wisdom with me?" but we'd actually say
something Perfectly Polite, yet Firm, like, "Yes, thank you,
I am Well Aware of That."
Dear Reader, let us say that we Applaud You
for being a Considerate Smoker. ALL Smokers should follow the behaviors
you have outlined in your letter! We think that unfortunately, the
People Who Don't Like Smokers, In General, have not known many Considerate
Smokers, and they probably would Calm Down if all Smokers were as
Thoughtful as You, Dear Reader. And finally, we're tickled that
our site has made your Monday Mornings a wee bit More Tolerable!
Very truly yours,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
Simply can't wait to get your book!
Here's my question: can you offer some suggestions
on how to maintain a "porcelain complexion"?
Thanks!
Love,
M
Dear M,
Why, thank you! We hope you enjoy it!
Let's see, a Porcelain Complexion... to achieve
or maintain this, you have to get your skin to look like Fine Porcelain:
c'est à dire, clear, smooth, and luminous. (And let the EGs
state what should be The Obvious here: skin of any shade can accomplish
this.) Our first tip is to Get a Lot of Sleep. Well-rested people
just have Better Skin. Secondly, when you find a Skin-Care Regimen
that Works for You, don't change it, even if Something Strange and
New with a Cool Name and an Intriguing Package is on the shelves
at Sephora! The EGs are Big Fans of Not Fixing things that Aren't
Broken. (Though we are incapable of expressing that sentiment avec
the customary "Ain't"--the EGs just despise "Ain't"!
But We Digress.) Try to drink a lot of Water, especially after a
night of Hoisting the Demon Drink. Make friends with a Good Dermatologist
in the event you Have Problem Skin. (Sometimes Dermatologists can
be So Helpful they seem Almost Saintly.) And finally, find a Good
Sunscreen (Peter Thomas Roth makes nice lightweight ones) and use
it, every single day, summer and winter, no matter the Weather.
Lots of Skin Problems (blemishes, splotches, etc.) start with The
Sun, and thus it's best to Avoid It. The EGs are naturally Rather
Nocturnal, so we get Precious Little Sun Exposure, but rest assured
that when we do Venture Out of the Etiquette Flat during The Day,
we are wearing SPF 15. Sometimes the EGs wish Parasols were still
De Rigueur--we'd use those too, if they didn't look a Wee Bit Silly.
No matter the Natural Hue of Your Complexion, we bet your skin will
Look Smoother and Clearer if you Shun the Sun.
Hope this helps,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
I absolutely love your site! I have a list of
dear friends who will be receiving Things You Need to Be Told as
Christmas presents (including the friend below) this year, and I
know that they'll love it. But now it's time that I need some advice...
My dilemma is this: A friend of mine recently
moved to my state, but is still more than an hour from my city.
Since I apparently live in a more interesting place, she comes into
town every few weeks and we visit together, which has been very
nice. My quandary is that since I have not yet been invited to her
house, I haven't given her a housewarming present. She's been living
here for over two months now, and she has ignored every hint I've
dropped about spending time in her neck of the woods.
Should I give her a housewarming present anyway,
without an invitation? Should I have just given her one in the first
place and not waited? Or should I wait for that ever-elusive invitation?
Additionally, what is an appropriate housewarming present?
Please help me with this. My friend is far from
an etiquette expert herself, but I would like to hold myself up
to worthwhile standards.
Sincerely,
Meredith in Seattle
Dear Meredith,
It is a Wee Bit Odd, we think, that your friend
has not invited you to Visit Her. There may be, of course, some
sort of Extenuating Circumstance, but if she is a close friend of
yours, she really should explain why she hasn't offered to host
you in return for Your Hospitality. (For example, "My mother
lives with me, and she is Quite Ill. It's not a good time for me
to Receive Visitors at home," or, "I would love to have
you come to lunch sometime, but my apartment is literally smaller
than my College Dorm Room, and I haven't room to put a Sleeping
Bag on the floor, let alone a bed.") We might have given her
a Wee Little Something the first time you got together-- just some
Nice Soaps or a Good Book about Local History or something-- but
that would've been more of a "Nice to see you again after such
a long time" gift than a Housewarming Gift, which is taken
when you actually visit someone in Their Home. At this point, we
would wait for her to Invite You Over. Perhaps you will have Important
Business near her town sometime soon, and you will be able to Drop
By with a Nice Little Gift. The EGs hope she does reciprocate your
hospitality, Dear Reader-- it's a drag to Always Be the Hostess.
We're so happy you're going to spread the word
about TYNTBT, Dear Reader! The EGs have already Seen Copies in Our
Local Bookstores, Dear Reader, so we'd suggest Stocking Up Now!
(In addition, don't forget that if you live near, or don't mind
driving to, Western Massachusetts or Pittsburgh, you can come to
one of Our Signings and we'll autograph your copies!)
Thank you, Dear Reader, and good luck.
Sincerely yours,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
I found your site So Delightful! Thank you for
being such a Wonderful Source of Etiquette.
As I came upon Your Site, I noticed you mentioned
Khakis were Inappropriate For Swing Dancing. I am a Young Lady of
14 years who has Not Worn Khakis since 5th Grade, but I wondered,
why are Khakis not acceptable for Swing Dancing?
Most sincerely,
Wondering
Dear Wondering,
Greetings, Dear Young Reader! We are so pleased
you have Found Our Site, and we're very happy you enjoy it. Tee
hee, you've even picked up our Random Capitalization! We are so
Flattered!
The EGs are Making Reference to a Certain Commercial
for Gap Khakis which aired a few years ago--perhaps in 1999. It
was shown All the Time, and, while the EGs thought the Music was
Fabulous, we weren't So Keen on all the Khakis. The Appropriate
Attire for Swing Dancing is Dressier and simply More Interesting
than Plain Old Khaki Pants! Girls should wear cute little 1940's-ish
dresses with Nice Petticoats (both of which can be found at Vintage
Clothing Shops-- which, we might add, are Infinitely More Fun to
Shop At than The Gap), and Boys might Break Out the Zoot Suits.
All best,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
I have been experiencing an absolutely horrifying
practice at the law firm where I am employed. For some reason, a
large number of the men in the office think that there is nothing
wrong with clipping their fingernails over a trashcan in their office
with the door wide open. Not only is this visually disgusting, but
the sound the clipping makes is worse. I would like to submit a
polite but stern note to our firm "suggestion box" and
was wondering if you could offer some good if not humorous advice
for this problem. Thank you so much!
Aghast Barrister
P.S. I'd like to stop this problem before they
start hitting the toenails!
Dear Aghast Barrister,
HOLY MARY, MOTHER OF GOD! The EGs thought Lawyers
were supposed to be Dignified, Refined People! Quelle Horreur!
Here's what we'd put in The Suggestion Box:
I find it interesting that the Men in This Office
seem Compelled to Attend to their Nails in the Office. I am left
with only three possible interpretations of this Bizarre Practice:
1) Their nails grow at an Alarmingly Fast Rate,
e.g., something like One Inch Per Hour, and, unless Clipped, prevent
them from Doing Work.
2) They are Underworked, if they are spending
Work Hours engaged in Personal Tasks such as Grooming.
3) They have been Raised By Wolves.
1) is, I suspect, Quite Unlikely. 2) could be
Swiftly Rectified by Management. 3) may be the case, but I feel
I must remind everyone that Grooming should be done In Private.
The office is not where you clip, paint, file, or even bite Your
Nails. It's just Not Professional.
And there you have it, Dear Reader!
All best,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
This is not an etiquette question, but one regarding
a question in your archives. What on Earth is a "half-shirt"?
Yours,
EHF
Dear EHF,
It is the Epitome of Horrendous and Inappropriate
Fashion. Basically, this is a shirt which is Too Short to be Tucked
In; it is otherwise known as a "crop-top." Needless to
say, it is Not Appropriate Attire. Especially when worn By A Man.
And Most Especially when worn By A Man in An Office Environment.
Yuck!
Cheers,
The Etiquette Grrls
My Most Dear Etiquette Grrls,
I hope you both are well. It has been a trying
time, but true Autumn is here now - the most civilized season. My
quandary is a strange one. My boyfriend's parent's cat fills me
with horreur. This cat is declawed so he uses his teeth! He has
attached me and bitten my legs drawing blood! My boyfriend's mother's
response to this? "Did you step on him?" Step on him!
I wouldn't willingly be on the same planet with him. The family,
with the exception of my boyfriend, Loves the cat. He shreds every
roll of paper in the house regularly - paper towels, toilet paper,
etc. Keep in mind he has no claws. He hides and pounces and bites
and scares the living daylights out of me. I have never been afraid
of cats. Now I lock myself in the bathroom to escape my friends
new little kitten. In short, I am traumatized. Why, why, why must
people find their pets so charming? My boyfriend now pretends that
he is afraid of the cat and insists that it be secured before we
visit his parents (who live only half a block away from us), and
we no longer go to their country house if the cat will be there.
The problem is that my boyfriend is taking some heat from his pretended
aversion. His 12-year-old brother keeps asking why he doesn't like
the cat, and his parents are visibly displeased. Should I confess
that it is I who hates this accablant feline? How, in general, do
you react when someone has a pet that irritates or frightens you?
Should you just not go to their home? If so, should you explain
why when they are disappointed at your constant refusals? Do let
me know. All my love,
Scaredy Cat
Dear Scaredy Cat,
You poor dear!!! (And, we are Inclined to Say,
The Poor Cat! If someone had Surgically Removed the EGs' Nails,
not to mention the last knuckle on Our Fingers and Toes, we'd be
Pretty Darn Mean-Spirited Ourselves. But the EGs Digress.) We think
it is Very Sweet of Your Boyfriend to pretend it is he who Fears
the Cat! How Chivalric! The EGs are Much Impressed!
Sadly, Dear Reader, some people are As Annoying
about Their Pets as others are about Their Children-they cannot
understand that others do not think their Wee Ones' Flaws are Just
Adorable. We can't really advise that you Take It Upon Yourself
to tell your boyfriend's parents this, however. They probably Won't
Take It too well. Your boyfriend might be able to have a Serious
Discussion of The Cat Issue with them, though-"Mom and Dad,
Little Beelzebub the Cat has a Biting Problem. I'm serious. Have
you thought of Consulting the Vet about this? I know you love him,
but I think if he were really happy, he wouldn't be So Destructive.
Maybe something is Wrong, and you should get him checked out. And
at the Very Least, it's really not a good way for a cat to behave.
Shredding the Toilet Paper occasionally is Amusing. Shredding My
Girlfriend's Leg is not. Surely the Vet could tell you how to stop
this behavior. All of us-including Beelzebub--would be much happier
for it." If the cat belonged to a Dear Friend of yours, though-someone
with whom it would be appropriate for you to have a Frank Conversation-we
would say that you could do the talking. And this is the sort of
thing to say.
If this doesn't help, we're sort of At A Loss,
Dear Reader. (One might wear Chain Mail, but that is Rather Cumbersome,
not to mention a Poor Fashion Choice.) We're not Animal-Behavior
Experts, but we would say to encourage the cat to Avoid You. First,
make yourself Taste Bad. Get a bottle of Bitter Apple spray. You
might try spraying a wee bit on your feet (on Old Shoes, of course,
not your Cool New Boots); perhaps it will Scare Off the Toothy Beast.
Or you might take the Opposite Route and bring it a Catnip Toy to
Beat Up on, so its Kitty Angst is not Directed at You.
As ever,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
I recently had an hour massage with a certified
massage therapist who works out of a spare bedroom in her home.
I feel very relaxed now except for one issue. I wrote a check to
her personally, and she does not work with anyone else. Do I need
to tip her in addition to the base price she quoted? (In doubt,
I went ahead and tipped her.) Thanks for your help.
To Tip or Not to Tip
Dear To Tip or Not to Tip,
We wouldn't have tipped her. Here's why:
First, there is a big difference between Massage
Therapy and Simply Relaxing Massage. If you're having a Wee Massage
as part of your Day at the Spa, you'd probably want to Tip, as it's
just another relaxing spa service, like getting A Facial. However,
Certified Massage Therapists usually provide Medical Treatments,
like Deep Tissue Massage, and are much more concerned with The State
of Your Muscles than How Relaxed You Are. They're Trained Professionals,
and in the EGs' opinion, you wouldn't tip a Physical Therapist,
so you shouldn't tip a Certified Massage Therapist either. (Nor,
in case you were wondering, should you tip A Regular Therapist,
either. Your Shrink, Psychologist, etc., does not get A Little Something
Extra.)
Second, even if you had received a more spa-like
massage (say, combined w/ a facial or something), you would not
tip This Particular Massage Therapist. If she works On Her Own,
she falls into the same category as a Hair Salon Owner, whom one
Does Not Tip.
Yours truly,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
The doorbell rings while I'm on the telephone.
What should I do?
In a Fix
Dear In a Fix,
Clearly, you should Panic, Turn Out the Lights,
and Cower. Being This Popular can Drive One Mad!
Seriously, we can't imagine why this would be
a big deal. If you're expecting something Very Important, like a
package you need to sign for, it would probably be a good idea to
indicate this at the beginning of the conversation. "Oh, hello,
Charlotte! Just wanted to let you know-I'm expecting the UPS Guy
to come sometime this morning, so if the doorbell rings, I'll have
to run… you know how Those Delivery Services are, sometimes,
if you don't Make Haste to the Door." Otherwise, if you are
surprised by the bell, just mention this to your caller. "Hmmm,
it's the doorbell. Wonder who that could be; I'm not Expecting Anyone.
Still, I'd better check. Would you mind holding on a moment, or
could I call you right back?" Of course, if you were having
a Very Important Conversation that could not be Interrupted At All,
for Any Reason, you'd just have to let the doorbell go, and Forever
Wonder who might have Been On Your Doorstep.
Sincerely yours,
The Etiquette Grrls
Dear Etiquette Grrls,
How do you do!

shoes, tour shoes, flying shoes, jogging shoes, sandal, wooden shoes,

China. We also supply bamboo mats, bamboo flooring, wood flooring,
multifarious wooden massage implements.Welcome contact us if you
are interest in any our items.
Thank you! and best regards.
Someone Who Thinks It's a Good Idea to Send
Spam to the EGs
Dear SWTIAGITSSTTEGs,
Hmmm. If the EGs ever have a need for multifarious
sport shoes, we'll be the First to Tell You. (We must admit, "multifarious"
is a word we Seldom See. Particularly twice in One E-Mail Message.)
And what on earth are "Flying Shoes"?
Sincerely,
The Etiquette Grrls
