I just want to point out that nine is an ODD number of feet. We can expect at least one more foot, right?

WELCOME BACK CAT. THINGS HAVE BEEN SWELL. THE LAST YEAR OR SO HAS SEEN SOME QUALITY COMMENTING, THE QUASI-DEATH OF THE ?LAND XPERRIMENT, THE BIRTH & DEATH OF DOZENS OF INTERNS WITH FUNNY NAMES, AND THE DEPARTURE OF ONE MATT DAVIS TO NEW ORLEANS.

IT IS PREDICTED THAT WHEN FACED WITH A CITY WITH ACTUAL PROBLEMS, MATT WILL DROWN IN HIS OWN TEARS.*

MATT WAS REPLACED BY DENIS C THERIAULT (PRONOUNCED DENEEE TERRORBOT) WHO HAS BEEN DOING A QUALITY JOB SO FAR, AND REALLY DIALING BACK THE EARNESTNESS FROM THE GLENN BECK-ISH HEIGHTS OF HIS PREDECESSOR.

HOW HAVE YOU BEEN?

* "HURRICANE DAVIS" WILL COST ONE LIFE, CREATE ONE REFUGEE, AND REQUIRE 38.50$ IN FEMA FUNDS TO CLEAN UP.

THE COPS DON'T SUSPECT FOUL PLAY, BUT I'M NOT SURE WHY SO MANY FEET CAN END UP IN THE WATER. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'RE PREDOMINANTLY MALE, SIZE 11-12 AND RIGHT FEET.

I'M GLAD I HAVE SMALL FEET.

HI COLIN! THINGS ARE WELL, I'M BACK IN TOWN PERMANENTLY SO FAR AS I CAN TELL; AM NOT SURE IF I'LL MAKE MORE THAN INFREQUENT VISITS TO /B/TOWN. THESE NEW NAMES CONFUSE AND FRIGHTEN ME.

@ FRUIT CUP: I WOULD PROBABLY BEGIN TO SUSPECT FOUL PLAY AFTER THE SEVENTH OR EIGHTH RUNNING SHOE-CLAD SEVERED FOOT APPEARED ON THE BEACH WITHIN 36 MONTHS.

I GUESS CANADIAN POLICE AREN'T THE SUSPICIOUS TYPES.

I read somewhere that there was one matched pair of feet. The article went on to say that when a body is left in the water, the head, hands and feet are the first things to come off of the torso. Aw crap. I forgot to capitalize my comment. So shoot me.
