Craziness

I just read one of the craziest articles, ever. Apparently, Kool-Aid and Reebok launched a new line of shoes, featuring Kool-Aid scented sneakers. First of all, the article had a picture of the new shoes... and I would hope that just based on looks alone that would be enough to scare anyone off. 

Secondly, I don't know if I would really be comfortable having shoes that smelled like grape or strawberry. It sounds like a good idea but it leaves me questioning a few things... How long does that smell last? Does it last throughout the whole life of the shoe or just for the few weeks. Also, what if you combine the strawberry smell with nasty foot smell? Is it still going to smell like strawberry? Finally, who ever came up with the idea to cross-brand Reebok and Kool-Aid. That might be one of the most bizarre combinations in history. 

I guess it will be interesting to see if these sneakers are going to be a hit or not.
