I think I need to get some of these.

Have you ever heard of "My Happy Feet" socks?  They are billed as the original feet alignment socks. I hadn't heard of them either but my daughter-in-law got a pair for Christmas and I must admit I'm intrigued. They are socks without toes but with thick coils of yarn (fabric) between spaces for your toes.  The idea is that, as your feet adapt to them gradually, they spread your toes, relaxing your feet and making them feel happy.  I think it sounds like a fine idea.  Mind you, I'm not aware that my feet are particularly unhappy but you never know.  If you're curious you can check out these super socks at www.My-HappyFeet.com.
