Filthy Feet

I have to make a passioned plea to all sandal, flip-flop and open toed shoe wearing Washingtonians. Please, please, please look at your feet. I mean, REALLY look at your feet. I know it's hot out, trust me, I do, and please don't think that I do not dream about slipping in to my favorite Birks when I get home after work, but my barefoot bretheren, about 90% of you need some serious foot attention. Ladies, for most of you, I applaud your efforts to keep your pedicurists in business. However, gentlemen, let me remind you that toe nail clippers are not optional grooming products. The same goes for Tinactin, or any anti-fungal foot product for that matter. Oh yeah, and soap and water are keys to success. So if I am going to be forced to look at glistening piggies, please at least use a washcloth once a day, if not more, at least until Mother Nature forces toes back in to socks for a long winter's nap.
Lesson Number Two: Cleanliness is next to Godliness, at least when it comes to feet.
