Thanks ...
although, it appears I'm moving in the wrong direction. Since this one is "very interesting" and the new one was just plain "interesting".
You should read the one about nuts ... maybe you'd find that one "extraordinarily interesting".

The common thread, Original Influence...
is that all the facts/figures involve feet.
It's like it says in the blog description, "Read this, and you WILL be smarter. Guaranteed." Or, at the very least, you will always have something interesting to say at dinner parties.
A superficial knowledge of every subject is far more valuable than a comprehensive knowledge of one or two.

Onec upon a tourist time, I came across a brand of camel hide shoes that are uni-lateral. I mean no sides taken. They can be worn on either foot.

Possibly, A...
The human body surely is a complex and wondrous (albeit mysterious) organism.
And, I urge anyone who has the opportunity to go see BodyWorlds (when it comes to a town near you).

What do YOU think it's means, Gubby?
It was the most ladylike and discreet way I could word it. Cause, I've noticed a certain troubling theme in my last few posts and I said to myself, "What are you, like in
third grade?"

Sometimes I feel as though I have an extra thumb, but that's just me.
Anyway, I believe these "feelings" emanate from the brain, itself. I had a traumatic closed head injury, which could explain mine, except for the phantom teeth. I sometimes have what feels like mild tooth aches, and those are related to sinus infection. Nerves do create ghost images of themselves, such as what normally occurs with kidney stones -- a nasty condition -- that generates much pain. I avoid kidney stones by drinking watered down cranberry drink from the cranberry syrup that you can buy in healthfood stores. I think the cranberry drink is acidic enough to round out the edges of the stones.
Sorry. I'm sure that is more information than you wanted....

Also, BrightIrish, your shoe idea is a very good one...
I meant to say that before... but, I was distracted by an email.

My mother's friend's husband (who is, in fact, missing an arm)...
suffers from "phantom pains" ... although most of us believe he's embellishing to some extent ... to get out of doing any work (around the house
or anywhere else, for that matter).

M.P.O.
Hi.. They should have a place where everyone leaves the extra shoe and can pick up one from another for the other foot that would give each person 2 shoes for the foot they have.
Also, I have a friend who wears dentures and swears that she still gets very mild toothaches.
