Here are the shoes he brought in: http://ari-rahikkala.net/pics/manyshoes.jpg

He was outside at the time (presumably wearing shoes). That means... he brought 39 shoes. That's almost as many as four tens. And that... smacks me as a bit strange.

Yeah, the most likely explanation *is* that they're not all his.

I don't know. Maybe he'll open an in-flat shoe store one day or something.

A man's toe and a woman's toe are kinda different.

Ringworm versus wearing men's shoes, the women will choose wearing men's shoes. But if the village still does human sacrifices, I guess any sort of rational thinking could be out the metaphorical window.

But they must appease their gods. How else can they hope to not incur their wrath and be destroyed.
