Hi Pheenix,

Thanks for posting.

It probably is dry and sharp most of the year.
Shoefootin' one never experiences soft nor dry nor
sharp nor lots of feelings Barefootin' affords.

A Highway Patrol Officer once tried to
write me a ticket for operating a motorcycle
barefoot. He couldn't find the law.
It doesn't exist.

I feel the same way.

I don't mind hot nor cold
but too hot or cold will blister my soles.
Same with distance hiking and walking.
Too bad it appears to be a fitness attribute.
Use it or lose it has been my experience.

I enjoy being childlike. Playful.

>Happy and free is good.

Agree.

>You can tell a lot about a person by their toenails.

I don't know about that.
Could be a stereotypical generality.
Maby some truth to it tho.

>Barefoot doesn't mean dirty feet. 

Mine tend to get dirty outside.

I can BE barefoot just fine.
It's wearing shoes that I have a problem with.
So in a way I'm free, but in another way
not so free. Same with my beard and hair.

No harm no foul might be right.
There might also be lines drawn
in terms of age. I've heard the brain
can be affected by behavior. I used to
think everything was okay. Now I'm
not so sure. Lots of stuff may not be.

>Stay out of the mainstream, it's polluted!

Being in the fringe is more interesting.

>That's it for now, except for the footnote.

I've never thought of writing notes on my feet.

-cheers!
