"The İstanbul Cobber and the Shoe Heard Round the World
From Yigal Schleifer at his blog, Istanbul Calling:
I just spent some time today in the factory of the Turkish shoemaker who claims that it was his company's shoe that was thrown at George W. Bush and that his sales are now booming. Hard to verify his claims: the offending shoes have apparantly been destroyed, although I did see a group of men in the company's workshop feverishly making pairs of the shoe -- now renamed the 'Bye Bye Bush' model -- for delivery to Iraq."
