backup...

averaging about five<br>&gt;pounds.....unless......unless I find ways to do 
it with less.<br>&gt; &gt;&gt; Hmmm...do we really need our pinky 
toes?<br>&gt;<br>&gt;I vote No. They commonly blister and fold under their 
neighboring toe,<br>&gt;creating blisters on that toe. Little tiny toenails 
that are too small to be<br>&gt;of any value. Who wants to step up and be 
the first to lose theirs?<br>&gt;<br>&gt;John Vonhof<br>&gt;Fixing Your Feet
