   Thank you for this Link Love Post! The You vs the Cubicle Article is excellent! Puts obvious ideas into a simple perspective. I particularly like the idea of celebrating our creative failures as our greatest teachers. It’s a positive way to conquer those nagging fears…

   And I surely can’t wait to sit down with coffee and watch the rest of the Stefan Sagmeister video. Iiiiiintersting! I Love how he spread out some of his retirement into the working years. <3

   Lola: I don’t think that the point was for them to be attractive but rather to push the boundaries of our societal expectations of footwear. McQueen is known for doing this sort of thing; remember the uproar his “bumster” pants created in the 90s? Then, years later the lowest of the low rises were everywhere.

   I love those shoes. They look like alien hooves, so they’re right up our alley.

   Although it is interesting that airlines charging the most ancillary fees are the ones with the fastest-declining revenues, it’s important not to mistake correlation for causation: based on the data available, we don’t know whether it really is that simple (higher fees driving away potential customers) or whether the causal arrow goes the other way (the airlines who are losing the most money are the ones working most aggressively to come up with strategies to recoup it), or even whether there is a third causal variable that isn’t as obvious or intuitive.

   Those shoes are… interesting. I can’t say that I love them or hate them, but the trend of shoes-that-aren’t-shaped-like-feet both intrigues and disturbs me.
