    Got probably 11 tetanus shots after stepping on tacks and nails as a kid. Stepped on glass and metal shard in the empty lot across the street walking to the store every day. But never occurred to me to put on shoes. #ProudHillbillyhttps://twitter.com/chasbottom/status/961755539867885569 …

        . @SalenaZito Huh. I grew up a Florida Cracker; my feet just got tough. My brother, though, nearly severed his big toe. But now I can barely take a barefoot step in a parking lot in summer. City living ....

        Saw that, and though I have monkey toes, I thought 'no way'. Lo and behold, I can actually throw a tennis ball with my foot! Cool.

        My (now) in-laws somehow heard about this talent of mine and made me take off my shoes and socks and throw a ball across the hall at the rehearsal dinner. It's most useful when one has small children who leave stuff (Legos!) on the floor. You won't have to bend down.

        I was always the first to be running around the neighborhood barefoot. Still do. Not in the front yard though. Goats heads. Makes stepping on Lego feel like walking on river rock.
