Hands across the border Taxi! feet
These feet are truly borderless feet. They trotted originally from Iraq. They have reached Taxi! from New Hampshire. Poetically inclined, not afraid of a hike to discover a book feet.

Grumpers most welcome: impossibly stubborn Taxi! feet
Taxi! readers are certainly grumpy. Regularly grumpy. We celebrate grumpiness. Some are practising contrarians. We have one reader grumpy enough to refuse to provide his foot. We salute his resistance. Respect is due. Thus because literary revolutions like decent baking aren't easily achieved: we must borrow a votive set for him.

Rare! Male stripy Taxi! foot floating above Vancouver street
A rarity! The male foot is outnumbered in the gallery. Come on lads. Come on Vancouver readers. Edmonton is dwarfing us. Note the convenient air holes this Taxi! reader's shoe contains. His feet will be still and ventilated as he's immersed in Taxi!
