Folks:
I remember we had an LBO thread on pedicures once, so here's something I just wrote on the Nation blog on the subject

By the way, I'm posting there a lot these days as part of a new contract with the magazine. It would be great if LBO-types would sometimes read and post responses if you are so moved. To me and to others. Friendly, critical, I don't care.
