P: Lord! You are the best! Can I kiss your feet? I can't go to Florida, but could you send at least one foot by UPS? " Can you spare a foot, sister? " This strange request, a feet fetish vagrant, directed to a young woman walking by in sandals so reveling that they were like feet tongs. Wow! I thought, here is another desperate seeker in search of a guru's foot to kiss. ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
