Shelby’s shoes aren’t the only thing in need of supervision.

“These shoes seem to have a mind of their own”, complains Shelby.

a human centipede?

It’s okay. Shelby’s on top of it.

Well when you wear a size 19, your choices are rather slim.

Shelby can go 0-25 in 20 seconds. However, he has no brakes.

Shelby is in need of Nurse supervision after the shoes decide to go downhill.

You’ve heard of inline skates… well, Shelby thought this would be the next big thing:

he’s invented out-of-line skates.

Casters!! Easy to do a full speed drift!

Someone told Shelby that more is better.

I think he’s put on more than he can wheelly handle. What do you think?

I bet they have excellent traction in the wet, though.

They’d work better if he used the straight casters instead of swivel casters…

His shoes are trying to tell him something and he may (or may not, you know Shelby) eventually realize that they are on the wrong feet…

Good thing he doesn’t need a key to tighten the wheels……

Looks pretty dangerous to me with little wheels going every which-way.

Shelby’s swively shoes shouldn’t stop skating smoothly, somehow Shelby seems star-crossed… [SKINK!]

Shelby took the training wheels off far too early. That model is known for taking a long time to train.

I want to know what’s holding those desk chair wheels on. Wheeee!

Oh wheelly.

I dare him to put those on and visit Branson, MO!

Cue the music: “Oh I’ve got a brand new pair of roller skates…”

I’m thinking Shelby could use a little himself.

That’s what happens when you use wheels from a shopping buggy.

Ballard Street ALWAYS CRACKS ME UP!!!
