100 Things #5 – Shadows

Posted on Jan 17 2010 | Posted in One Hundred Things | 4 Comments

Evelyn (my beautiful hand shadow model) and I went out to dinner the other night. While we were waiting (much too long, I might add) for our food, we did a few hand shadows.

Despite the appearance, I can assure you that she has only 10 fingers (actually 8 fingers and two thumbs, considering that technically thumbs are toes).

Aaron-Did you learn nothing from all those years of school? Do you remember nothing of all the knowledge we have imparted to you? Thumbs are not toes–that is because they are on your hands and not on your feet. Feet have toes, hands have fingers. If thumbs are toes, then are some of the toes fingers? Because you can only have 10 of each. You can’t have twelve toes and 8 fingers…I’m sorry, that will not do. If thumbs are toes you must designate certain toes to be fingers. None of which makes sense. The ones on the hands are fingers, and the ones on the feet are toes.

Look at your thumb. Tell me that’s not a toe. (count the joints…)

No, dad’s right, much as I hate to admit it. Count the joints on your toes (the digits on your feet). The difference actually seems to be between major and minor digits.

Weird. So technically, you have 16 fingers and 4 toes?

Have your say!
