An eyewitness said: "He told her she already had enough shoes, more shoes that she could wear in a lifetime, and it was pointless buying any more. She started shouting at him, accusing him of being a skinflint, and of spoiling Christmas. It was a really heated argument."

The argument continued until Hsiao threw the bags on the floor and himself over the balcony, dropping seven stories to his death and smashing Christmas decorations on the way down.

That's why they have sporting goods and tool departments when you're out shopping with the *Old House Witch*.

Let her do her thing and you do your thing.

Meet up at the cash register, bite the bullet and off you go homeward bound, no fuss, no muss :)

“adult men you meet will have never married, and not by choice? How could this change the social and cultural dynamics of China?”

But it works so well in Muslim countries!

His last words were:

“Don’t laugh, you’re next!”

But still. She probably did have more shoes than Imelda Marcos. And he’d still have flipped his lid to see her with Yet Another Pair. “Honey, you have a shoe for every day in the year. Isn’t that enough yet?”

Sounds like the wrong person went over the edge. I wonder if he wished her a Merry Christmas on the way down? You know I bet a country star could make a hit song out of this!

Would have never happened if he had just hung around in sporting goods or tools, ignorance can be bliss and therapeutic at times.

Yes, it’s surprising how many Christian Koreans there are. I even see it reflected in their films. Walking into a home and seeing a cross on the wall. Or films depicting missionaries who help North Koreans escape to the south. The Japanese are far more hostile to Christianity, it seems.

Don’t know about the Chicoms though.

This wife hasn’t bought a pair of shoes in 5+ years. Yes, those were on sale because I’d rather pay the utility bill. I noticed last month the shoes I’ve worn nearly every day for the past 10 years or so has a hole through the sole. Now I’ll have to pull those new 5 year old ones out of their box.

I suppose he could have said just buy what you want honey.

In a sad way maybe she wanted to impress him and he misunderstood. “Dear, don’t I just look killer in these?” “Yes honey and I’ll prove it!”
