Were I to wade
out into the surf I expect my feet and toes would appear quite strange to local
fish, and perhaps wearing shoes might be misconstrued as shells covering and or
protecting such tasty morsels. Shoelace
ends waving freely within the current could be mistaken for whiskers, like
those of a catfish, or some salt-water creature having shoelace-like whiskers.
Considering this with some deliberateness I do not expect to subject my tootsies
to questionable surroundings like ocean floors or city subways.
For the life of
me I don’t know why someone hasn’t yet tiled ocean floors, allowing
swimmers the freedom and comfort to wade out several yards without having to
deal with the highly questionable and mostly unseen ocean bottom.
I envision a
delightful transition from clean, white sand to a smooth, non-slip terracotta,
or perhaps a ceramic mural depicting realistic images of smiling cartoon fish,
reassuring the younger and more timid swimmers that their wingtips are safe
from harm.
Maybe even an
interlocking mat of Legos stretching along coastlines, just below the breaking
tide, impervious to corrosion, echo
friendly, colorful and fun for the whole family.
Okay, I will have to consider this idea; less expensive than tile, indestructible and certainly a job creator. Such a massive undertaking could employ millions of people around the world.
