the panel barefoot. Lisa flexed her feet all through the session and at one
point even said, "Free your feet and your mind will follow." When the panel
ended, Lisa and Mike headed over to the Jpop Dance Party for some late night
boogie-dancing. When they ran out of groovy dance moves, they retired to their hotel room. Lisa changed into her Spongebath Betty nurse
attire, Mike into his scrubs. Sweet dreams occurred and on Sunday, Lisa and
