Turf toe is an injury that affects the joint at the base of the big toe. It occurs when the toe is bent upward by force and extended beyond its normal limits (hyperextension). The joint of the big toe is surrounded by tissues (ligaments and tendons) that help to keep it in place. If any of these tissues are damaged, turf toe may result.

The next night the family heard a *BANG* in the kitchen when they checked to see who or what it was, it was the turkey. So they got more and more suspicious that the turkey was evil. The following night the kid heard footsteps leading up to his room, when all of a sudden the door opens and the turkey appears, but when it sees that the kid saw him it runs away. In the morning the kid tells his dad what happened and the dad makes a hard decision, but he decides it is the best and makes a giant turkey
In the text “Exposed Toes” the author, Diane Riva, reflects on her collection of shoes and how each pair has a meaning to her. She describes how each pair of shoe she owns relates to a specific memory or time period in her life. She asserts that shoes can tell stories of our lives and are not just an article of clothing that we wear on our feet. Riva goes through all the shoes she owns and explains their story and how the shoe is a part of her life. For example, she brings up her black sneakers which are worn when we works at a bar. She states, “they are constant recipients of the over-filled glass of alcohol.” From this we learn her profession and get some insight on her memories as a bartender. Riva talks about all of her shoes in this manner
“Oh, there you are” her mother would reply Jordan would giggle, then run back out the back door with no shoes on. For a few days Jordan came inside the house limping on one foot, crying to her mother, “Mommy, I got cactus stuck in my foot” her mother would sit there with tweezers, pulling out each spine from the heel of her foot Jordan flinching each time she yanked one out. As soon as her mother was done, she'd look at her mother thankful she could help her, but still a tear still rolled down her face onto the floor from the surging pain now in her foot. Her mother would look at her in the eyes and repeat “You better learn how to wear your shoes” Jordan would nod, then limp off to her room to take a nap. One day, Jordan opened her eyes, she looked out the door and found her mother to be in the yard digging up cactus in the yard. Jordan made sure to put on some shoes and ran outside hiding around the corner of the house. Her mother saw her peeking around the corner of her house and said “Jordan, do you want to come help me?” Jordan smiled disappearing back around the house. She ran around the other side of the house trying to make her mother to jump. Kristina would giggle and say “Get over here you little turd” Jordan would run up to her mother, hug her, then look up at her saying “I love you mom” as her mother looked down
Exiled to the wilderness, the Nephilim soon began to adapt to the climate and their harsh new living conditions. One of these adaptations involved growing hair all over their bodies.
There was a couple named Kiowa and Muraco. They've been together for 8 years. They had a beautiful, healthy baby girl. Her name was Cherokee. Kiowa and Muraco loved Cherokee so much but they knew they couldn't keep Cherokee because they were poor. They had no money to take care of Cherokee. Everyday they struggled to find food and water. Days went by and Kiowa was starting to get sick. Each day it got worse and worse. Her skin was turning red, her eyes were puffy and she constantly coughed and sneezed. Kiowa told Muraco she didn't feel good and she felt like she was going to die soon. On the fourth day, Kiowa died and Muraco was left to raise Cherokee by himself. Muraco knew nothing about raising kids. He was scared. He didn't know what to do so he decided to find help.
I am not an acoustic expert or a scientist. My findings are based on observation and common sense. I think that I was under the influence of infrasound during this encounter with the Bigfoot on April 30th, 2010. The Bigfoot manipulated my perception and sanitized my memory. Even more disturbing, was the fact that I did not react to observing the Bigfoot. I must have initially recognized what it was and where it was hiding. I made two attempts to zoom in on the Bigfoot and obtain a close-up video. Sometime during this process, I was subjected to the influence of infrasound and strongly influenced or “brainwashed”. This caused me to walk off without reacting. It was apparent that my memory was wiped clean, I was given instructions to leave,
Stories of a creature, bristly creature that appears to be half man and half gorilla have existed in various parts of the world for quite a while. Honestly, the principle landmass not to have stories of "wild men" is Antarctica. In the Himalayas, it's the Yeti. In Canada, it's the Sasquatch. Likewise, in the northwest United States, it's Bigfoot. Bigfoot is delineated by followers as being some place around six and eight feet tall with a sweeping sanctuary and looked after temple, like a gap man's, and a balanced, topped head like a gorilla's. He is secured in cocoa or red hair and has colossal feet that are his namesake, with the best estimation at a surprising two feet long by eight creeps wide. A couple "witnesses" attest that the five-toed
The man in the well could not do anything until he got out of the well. The kids seen him as a play mate then a person who got stuck. The kids overruled the man in the well because they told him lies like they got a parent and never did. At the end of the story the man found out they didn't tell and ask them why,and the kids ran and never went back to that well again.
Soon along the way the boy had his pals read and she told him that he would find wounderful treasures in the desert of egypt.

The legend of Bigfoot has been told for hundreds of years. A legend is a traditional story, sometimes popularly regarded as historical but unauthenticated. Bigfoot’s legend started in the 1920s. Native Americans had told a story about a “wild man” in the Pacific Northwest and the story has changed numerous times between families and tribes ever since then. It wasn’t until the 1950s when the story had traveled over to the United States. The story of Bigfoot is a legend because the story has been passed down for years and years. Although the legend has yet to be proven true, people still believe Bigfoot is a real creature.
The Claim: The "weird" claim is that there is a population of large hairy "ape men" (a non-human missing link) that grow to be up to seven and a half feet tall that are known as Bigfoot or Sasquatch that live in the Northwest part of the United States. Bigfoot is a previously undiscovered creature that inhabits the Pacific Northwest of the United States and other various mountainous areas around the world but has never been conclusively proven to exist. My contention is that there is no such thing as Bigfoot and that there is no credible evidence for the existence of Bigfoot, furthermore I intend to show that the existence of Bigfoot is not the best explanation for what people may think
Alan Marshall and Christy Brown both had an abnormal childhood. Both of these authors experienced so many things that an average child or adolescent would ever have to go through. The books I Can Jump Puddles and My Left Foot are descriptions of their infancy growing up with disabilities affecting each author in a different way.¬ However these biographies were written to convey an underlying message that is going to be explored. Marshall and Brown both aspired to be like everyone else and these dreams that they had gave them something to achieve and fulfil. Without the use of communication, both authors would not have been able to achieve what they did during their teenage years and adulthood, however this is shown more through Brown’s story. In order to achieve your goals or dreams, you need support in order to do so. Alan Marshall and Christy Brown relied on the support from their friends and family or else they would not be the people they are today.
