Dollar short.
Thursday, 24. July 2008, 02:43:32
Monday I saved a dollar. It worked something like this: I had walked five miles, to the market and back.
With gasoline at approximately four dollars a gallon, and fuel economy in the city at (also approximately) twenty miles per gallon, the quotient is $1.
They needed proof, though, and trouble began. When they interrogated my feet separately (to prevent any possibility of collusion) the one foot swore, as if under oath, that it could have been no more than two and a half miles of pacing, for it's own part. THE OTHER FOOT CORROBORATED THE STORY, and my credibility has been damaged, and I am put to shame, (not to mention short a dollar, whereas the fifty cents not in the matter of dispute cannot-they say-be rewarded as penalty for fraud.)

Shoe depreciation
General podietry care and/or maintenance
Out of pocket expenses such as ointment Soaking or tactile stimulation of tootsies (standard foot rub) monetary reimbursement
Sounds like itemized deductions on somebodys taxes to me.
There must be some way to make the numbers sway in your favor.
