Yikes indeed. I'm now grateful for being my usual Luddite and not buying any of these!

Ok, I opened this in the hopes of finding out what crocs are - the article didn't answer that question. Can anyone tell me what crocs actually are? Well, I guess folks shouldn't waste a lot of time answering this one. I think I can conclude that since I don't know what they are, we probably don't wear them and won't need to worry.

I must say that my dc favorite tourist site in your neck of the woods is - METRORAIL. We ride it every year - not going anywhere. We just have to ride the metrorail.    Kind of like thinking shoveling snow is fun 'cause we never get to do it (Well we did do it once with permission. We shoveled our neighbor's driveway so we could borrow her snow for ours and pack it down really good for a sled ride .
Our Chicago relatives think we are a bit touched .

You are right! If you don't know what they are, then you have no problem!    But, just FYI, these are crocs.
