how to tie your shoes

Man, it took me forever to learn to tie my shoes. The gym teacher in 2nd and 3rd grade never stopped complaining about it.

Actually, that's not exactly true. I did know how to tie my shoes. Some kid in kindergarten showed me how. But they never stayed tied for more than a dozen steps. I still don't know what my problem was. To this day I tie my laces with a double-knot to keep them from coming undone.

Meanwhile, iceberg, who remembers the "how to fold a shirt" video, has informed me that there in an accelerated way to tie your shoes:

1. The old way.
2. The new way.
3. A longer look at the new way (with explanation).
