Aaand, the other shoe drops. Sort of.

Latest floating 'foot' turns out to be a hoax: "A 'skeletonized animal paw' had been placed in a sock and athletic shoe that was packed with dried seaweed, the British Columbia Coroners Service announced."

I bet the answer to the mystery won't be nearly as macabre as the theories my twisted brain has come up with after watching CSI, Forensice Files, Investigation Discovery, Cold Case Files and Silence of the Lambs one too many times.

The feet most likely belong to victims of a plane crash, whose feet disarticulated from their bodies after they spent some time decomposing at the bottom of the ocean. Because they were encased in buoyant sneakers, the feet drifted along currents until they washed up on a beach.

Because this is happening in and around Vancouver, I can't help but wonder, WWMD? (what would Mulder do?)
