Sixth Foot Found

[Swan]

The black running shoe, wrapped in seaweed, didn't stand out on the pebbled beach near Campbell River on Wednesday. It was the stomach-turning sight of human bones sticking up above the ankle line that left Sandra Malone shaken.

So I heard a few coworkers talking about this today at work and just wondering if any of you non BC-ites had heard of this. My boss who is Australian said people from way back home had heard about it.


But yes, intriguing me thinks

Goddamnit, how many times am I going to have to change my joke.



What's the difference between Vancouver Island and the Gulf Island?

About three right feet. Wait, now it's 5.. isn't it?


Also, I was listening to the radio, and some scientist was claiming that they ended up on opposite sides because right feet and left feet float differently in water.

[Angrist]

This was the first left foot? Or was that the 4th one?

The weird thing is that the feet don't seem to be removed by force...

Screw the olympics, let's give Vancouver worldwide coverage for this!


Goddamnit.


SOmeone on the radio today had a good theory though.
It was along the lines of:


People who grow dope put beartraps in their fields to stop raiders, and when a foot gets cut off, you're a dope grower - what are you gonna do with it? Ditch it in the water somewhere.

Apparently this is an Animal foot?

I thought it meant all of them were hoaxes, and was going to say "Who the fuck is putting all these shoes on animals?"

But...yeah.
