(Better yet, for your own home-bathroom spa, try Masada's Relaxing Foot Bath kit, which comes with a jar of minty antibacterial foot cream, two packs of soaking salts and a surprisingly luxurious inflatable foot bath, with a pump.) The salts come in four varieties, including eucalyptus, which is supposed to draw out toxins. I don't know if it did, but I was pleased that it did battle with my calluses.

One is the running gag that Malone isn't a "real" moviemaker because he does documentaries. "Nobody likes documentaries," somebody says. "But many people find them restful." As it happens, Fahrenheit 9/11 earned more at the domestic box office than any movie David Zucker has directed.
