“no evidence that the feet were deliberately severed or removed by force”

Well, I doubt that they just fell off while people were swimming.

I’m just waiting for the other foot to drop.

(sorry, I simply couldn’t resist it)

Diabetic amputees?

I think that probably most diabetic feet that are amputated are not wearing shoes.

“a left foot which washed up yesterday”

Perhaps the foot was preparing for prayers.

“I’m just waiting for the other foot to drop.”

If they’ve already got four *right* feet and this is the first left one, I’d say it is the “other” foot.

With more to come, maybe.

So now matching the right to left foots, how do you know which right foot is the right right foot?

Perhaps he had leprosy.

You’re right; something is clearly a foot!

There is something smelly about this whole “left foot” story.

We need to call in an expert: Dr. Scholl.

1. While sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number “6” in the air with your right hand. Your foot will change direction.

Foot Odor Murder In Houston
In what may be the closest thing to the proverbial “roommate from hell,” a 22-year-old Texas man has been charged with murdering his roomie after a foot odor dispute got out of hand. William Antonio Serrano, of Houston, allegedly stabbed the unnamed victim multiple times after he complained about Serrano’s “stinky feet.” According to the Houston Chronicle, he was “barefoot and handcuffed” when police escorted him from the 10-foot-square bedroom he had rented from a young couple. Determining whether this is the first foot-odor-related-murder remains difficult since it is impossible to gauge how many previous killings may have been incited by olfactory responses.

“Perhaps he had leprosy.”

Did you hear about the leper hockey game?

There was a face off in the corner.

Yeah, I know...

A left foot? What’s sinister about that?
