When we were in kindergarden, when we accomplished something, we got to color in a picture of the item. Let me tell you, I was motivated to learn to tie them shoes!

Two words for you, Pug. Vel. Cro.

If you double tie your shoes and they still come untied 3 times in 15 minutes, I'd take it as a sign. I've never had a double tie come undone. 3 times in 15 minutes? It's time to hang up the hat.

I do believe you're right. I have been accused of being hobbitish in the past, though.

*sigh* Yes, i do know how to tie my shoes and i can tie them well. But my left shoe was cursed this morning. I would tie that sucker nice and tight, bust out a double knot, and minutes later the laces would be draggin all up on the flo'.

dunno

Get a rag and wipe the Vaseline off the laces.

This may help.

Or not.
