It Only Hurts When I Blog

Greetings, Bloggy Taxpayers!

Did you file your taxes yet? If not, today's the day!

Savannah is upset because she won't be a tax deduction until next tax season. Tee hee...

Back to our conversation yesterday about 'footie' socks...

Did you notice that every one of us has paid good money for this type of sock, with the very same unsatisfactory result?

Multiply that by millions of people, and realize what a racket they have going for something that just doesn't work!

Anyway - I have the solution. For all you inventors out there, this was my idea but just give me a royalty for it when you take it to market.

Take your standard 'Peds-style' footie sock and knit on a slightly wider edge (that is now just thin hose). Around that edge on the inside, spray on a thin layer of rubberization, like they use on the outside of slipper socks or around the waistband of pantyhose.

That might just be enough to hold them on your foot BETTER than all the millions of socks in use out there. Just building a better mousetrap on 'da blog'.

Update at 6:28am - I already thought of a better way. Knit the whole sock with waistband elastic - the outside will be soft, and the entire inside will be rubberized. Whaddya think?

Gotta go! TTFN!
