Woopie. I named my left shoe "Fred." Same significance.

Have fun with your shoe. :roll:

I LOVE Stephen Colbert! He's the patron saint of funny, newsie, smart-ass, Southern, Catholic (reformed, anyway), writing, dorks like me!

He also has a spider named after him.

same thing happened to the shuttle 'Enterprise'...became the world's most expensive glider, if they'd only waited and named it later...

from what I hear, they robo-cheated and sent thousands of emails with the same request.

It's still too bad that it wasn't named Colbert.
