It all started over 2,000 years ago. A tale of infamy. A tale of footwear.

356 BC – In order to gain notoriety, Herostratus burns down the Temple of Artemis, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Earlier this week – In order to be featured on my blog, my 6-year-old son Ben places his Batman socks on our basement checkerboard end table.

Ah the Herostratic way, timeless.
