Shoes on a Wire

Years ago, I was driving with my young nephew in the car. Although he was known to be pretty chatty as a toddler he had entered a quieter stage. After about 3 hours of silence the first words he uttered were as he pointed toward a power line. "Shoes on a wire!" he called out before returning to a few more hours of silence.

For information on the meaning of this phenomenon check out one of my favorite sources of information, Snopes. http://www.snopes.com/crime/gangs/sneakers.asp
