I can't wear those, either and I read they give you "hammer toes", which means the ball, or end of each toe begin to strike the ground like a hammer as the joints in the toes begin to arch up and the toes begin to curl down. They attributed that to constantly clenching your toes to keep those sandals on. I remember I had heavy leather straps and buckles on my favorite sandals and and the soles were made of used car tires. They never wore out, but eventually got raunchy...When I was a kid thongs were something we wore on our feet. They were what is now called flip flops. Not sure if they were called thongs everywhere but it's what I remember them being called. I bought a pair in Jamaica a year ago. Took me the full 2 weeks I was there to get my feet broke in for them. Damn do they do they rub the skin between the big toe and next one.

I'm going to guess "flip flops" were immortalized by Jimmy Buffet. I never heard of "Jandels", before.Thongs/Flip Flops are so cool to wear. I have worn them all my life and just 2 weeks ago bought another two pairs. In fact I am sitting in front of the computer this very minute wearing a pair (on my feet). In New Zealand they were called Jandals after the original brand name Jandal - a contraction of "Japanese Sandal". I have not been back in twenty years so perhaps flip flops as a name is catching on. Also, swimming shorts were called togs and small furry creatures were called small furry creatures.
I guess you learn something new each day. Are wolverines ok to eat? What about foxes and wolves? I read today that a 200 Million Year Old elephant sized fossil of a mammal has been discovered. Apparently this is an issue for the current evolution stance regarding the rise of the mammal.
Hi Paul,
my question was triggered by your spelling (fury vs furry)
As to my list of small furious creatures, I omitted the Tasmanian Devil because his rep stems from kid's cartoon shows and may not be all that accurate.
As to the palatability of foxes and wolves, they are sorta like dogs and the Chinese have several excellent recipes for cooking those.
However, the wolverine is the biggest of the mustelids. Got a recipe for skunk?
That ancient fossil? Occam sez it's more likely that someone added an extra zero or two.
Fred, you may have noticed I changed the spelling after reading your comment. But I do wonder if people eat wolves after seeing them eat bears on an Alaska program the other night. They also seem to eat a lot of beaver ......
