FEET

What I posted about HERE seems to have continued.

Apparent 6th severed foot found in British Columbia

I wonder what ever happened to the man who was trying to raise money on the internet and have his feet chopped off? He felt he could ambulate better with prostheses as he had very bad foot-drop but his insurance company, maybe it was, refused to pay, or maybe his doctor refused to chop them off. He was going to do something like guillotine them off on the 'net because he needed money for the post chopping part of the deal, I think.

ZOMG I remembered the url and googled it as it was no longer up. .../me backs away from the puter... o.o

That reminds me, too, of that (excellent) memoir written by one of Darwin's nieces. As a girl she wondered, "Nanny, why do we have FEET?" "Humpf," Nanny replied (I'm writing this from memory), "You wouldn't want your leg to end in a nasty sharp bone, would you?" But she wondered why a nasty sharp bone would be a bad idea; that still haunts me a bit as I, seriously dood, don't want my leg to end in a nasty sharp bone - the very idea appalls me.
