Hi Bruce.... A friend with PD loaned me an interesting catalog called "SelfCare." In it, there's "foot thingees," (on page 5) made specifically to "stretch toes that are cramped." These definitely AREN'T shoes tho and you prolly would never even wear 'em out of your home. They're weird looking foam rubber thingees called "Toe Stretchers." My friend, Joanne Nelson (known by many of our local L.A. PD List members) swears by the toe stretchers. However, it should be noted that I know nothing about the products in this catalog when it comes to any of their claims, nor can I vouch-safe for quality as I've never ordered anything from it (just got the catalog a few days ago). And of course, I have no financial interest in SelfCare. Sooooo... at $28 for the pair, you won't feel like ya were hoodwinked or robbed if they don't do the job, plus they DO claim all items are guaranteed for a "life-time" (they don't say whether that's for YOUR life time or for the PRODUCT'S life time, tho) <wee smirk>.

If so, can you give any advice? THANKS!! Re Clinton, this is true, but wouldn't you call into question the JUDGEMENT of a President who would pull a stunt like that? And do we want a Pres. w/ questionable judgement? Of course these two women could be making this all up......Just an observation, I'm not trying to pick a fight with you.
