Floafers
A new shoe has been launched on Kickstarter and The Mistress is not amused...
According to this press release, Floafers combine the good elements of Crocs (comfort, waterproof EVA foam) with classic loafer style, making them shoes that men and women can wear proudly for travel, beach, boating, everything outdoors - and for comfort on the job - at hospitals, restaurants, retail, etc.
The Mistress has no further comment.

The Jockstrap Cup
A jockstrap is fine for supporting your "vital zone." But if you've ever received a slap shot to your "swimsuit area," you'll know that what's really needed is protection.
Enter a Canadian: Jack Cartledge.
Jack (who was a jock) filed a patent in 1927 for the hard-cup jockstrap while working at his father’s company, Guelph Elastic Hosiery. The cup was marketed under the name "Protex."
If you visit the Guelph Museum, you'll find a full-size Protex jockstrap and cup. (Your 2017 travel destination, Guelph, Ontario: Jockstrap Capital of the World.")

The Guelph Museum also houses a pair of miniature novelty jockstraps. These tiny jockstraps were stretched around highball glasses. The Mistress remembers similar mini novelty jockstraps from her family's cocktail parties, back in the day. "Hilarious!," thought a young Mistress....
So the next time you receive a blow and you walk away relatively unscathed, thank Canadian ingenuity.

Trump vs Trudeau
Ahhhh.... the good old days...
*wipes away wistful teardrop*
On Monday, February 13th, Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau will go tête-à-tête with Donald Drumpf as they meet for the first time in Washington, DC.
The Mistress wonders ... what would happen if Justin and The Donald went "mano a mano" instead of tête-à-tête?
And I'm not talking about the kind of mano a mano Drumpf had with British Prime Minister, Theresa May.
Nor am I talking about the bizarre, 19-seconds-long handshake he inflicted on Japanese Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe.
No. We're talking about a smackdown, Bitches.
Trump vs Trudeau.
Who would win in a fight?
